Club-Siemens is a site dedicated to Siemens mobiles in general, but it is so comprehensive that only the S55 related stuff will impress you. Club-Siemens is undoubtly the most comprehensive and popular Siemens site on the net, so you sould take a look. A lot of logos and animations (also MMS) can be found by choosing "Fun" in the menu, and scrolling down to the S55 frame. There are no polyphonic tones, and the logos are watermarked as well (though very discreet). The best part of the site is the forum, which counts over 16000 members. Only the S55 forum has over 100 daily posts, so if you want to meet fellow S55'ers, the Club-Siemens forum is the place for you. There's also a list of freeware java for the S55.

A great battery for the S55 I'm using myself, 30.63 euros and you will get 9-10 days of battery life! The battery is unorginal, but the quality is good. Weight: 20 grams, which is 7 grams less than the original. HWT ships worldwide, and the support team speaks English. Click "Zubehör für Siemens" -> "S55" -> "Ersatzakku Li-Polymer (!) 1000 mAH für Siemens S55"

A shop with original and unoriginal stuff for the S55 and other Siemens and Nokia phones. Handsfree (with or without radio), batteries, cables, (twin) chargers, car pack, loud speakers, covers, Bluetooth headsets, as well as spare parts for the phone. The site is in German, but accept orders from foreign countries. Choose "BenQ-Siemens Handys" in the left-hand menu, and then click "S55".

A well arranged German-language site, with S55 as the only subject. Plenty of stuff here; many logos, animations, polyphonic ringing tones, technical information (a good GPRS introduction) and a FAQ. As always, people who don't speak German should be able to at least get the fun stuff.

A extensive and updated Siemens site, with a good selection of stuff for your S55, including plenty of colour logos, color scemes, EMS animations and also a few midlets. Most of the S55 related material are placed below "Fun" on the right-hand side, and in the news. Note that the site is in German only, but anyone should be able to browse the selection of logos, animations and ringing tones.

This offical page from Siemens Mobile includes press releases and high-resolution pictures of their S55 model. This page is in German, but non-German-speaking visitors should be able to access some of the information. Of course a lot of this information is available in English as well, but I have not found a site like this one, which covers all stuff related to the S55 in one section. However, here's a few direct links to Enlish press pages that are informative and good as well: High-resolution press pictures with descriptions, press releases, Siemens Mobile press home page in English. Especially the nice pictures are worth a visit.
