My phone has a thing that you can open up and it tells you how fast you're going though

Can sometimes take a min to calculate it though.

because EVERY phone ever made has had faulty ones. Its a mass produced electrical good, some of them go wrong.

Its the best phone ive ever owned.

So compared to the N96's slow, unreliable software its better? Ive always had N series phones but the 96 has just been a letdown since day 1 and put me off them.

Ill probably wait for the first revision of it to come out before i get one then, but the E71 looks really good too and its a fair bit cheaper!

In an iCool world anyone getting that out at the pub would be made a mockery of.

But then i dont give a shit about phones. Whereas the above E71, looks like you do give shit but have seriously failed.

Or, it looks like you have one of, if not the best phones in general and definitely the best business phone out.

You just look poor.

It's so blatantly trying to be a Blackberry though.

The N97 could be compared to that T-mobile G1 thing or whatever it's called, but my cousin has one and it has a few good features but it's not that great. Plus it's quite big and an annoying shape.

E71 looks very classy in real life IMO

Prefer the look and function of my BlackBerry Curve (as an actual business phone IMO its much better)

Thing with the N97 it looks better than it actually is...

I've updated mine with the software updates and firmware updates and it still crashses and is slow!

If they hadn't of rushed it and sorted out the software properly then it would have been a much better phone!

It's just a waiting game now for nokia to pull their fingers out!

Same story with every new Nokia smartphone to be fair. Seems the bugs are never totally ironed out because they start working on the next new phone instead of fixing the old one!
