There are only two colors for this phone:
DARK SILVER
ONYX BLACK
The so called "light silver" is some pre-serial production demo model with unfinished coating, which never was produced for final sales. There are only some odd samples of non-finished dark silver units that just because of lack of final coating look like "lite silver"...
SO THERE"S NO SUCH THING AS LIGHT SILVER VERSION OD E71

that's why i said it's a long long story, the news is all there in Club-Siemens.
yes, the dark silver is fingerprint resistant, the member of Club-Siemens who has it said it work, at least it's not pick up dirt so easily.
what colour you have?
mine is onyx black.
surprisingly, there's a light silver version, but somehow they're not release it.
about the benefits of joining, haha.. no you're not gonna get new phone, unless you're lucky like i do!;-)
for sure you'll get a good Siemens community there, where they willing to help you on the problems you might have.
btw, you don't have to join to read everything there.

@Nigel
LOL, i'm a Mr not Miss!haha..!
well, your question is a bit long to tell here,let me tell the big part only.
actually it's not sell seperately.
it's just Siemens mobile HQ was in Germany and BenQ is in Taiwan, merging them into one isn't that easy considering how far they seperated and they can't just fire all the workers in Germany.
so, Siemens based phones is produce there and BenQ based phones produced in China, that's basicaly why.
more information you can find at www.club-siemens.net/forum.

@Nigel
you're welcome.
good to know it's at a good shape.
btw, i'm Mr.;)
@Sly
my previous phone was C75 and it SHOWN(remember, SHOWN) full signal reception almost all the times.
but no different from my E71 for the signal quality.
maybe you live in a low range signal area?
well, i'm not a hard user, my C75 lasted up to 6 days with minimum use, 3 days with hard use.
while my E71 lasted about 5 days with low usage and 2-3 days with hard use, that was running FW 32.
just updated the FW to 41, lets see if there's any differences.

@Nigel
you can download all the neccesary software(MPM> Mobile Phone Manager) you need for the phone at the official site, just choose support and download area.
@Adi
yes, it 20 seconds max only.
if you want to keep it lit just press any buttons, it'll stay lit.
@Sly
at first, i thought it's weak at recieving signal, coz it's shows only two or three bars.
but after i use it for awhile, i didn't notice any different for calls and battery life, so it's not a problem at all.
@Stefan Kovachev
press "option" then "more..", you'll find the option to copy or move to the phone memory there.
if you want to copy or move multiple contacts, mark them first.
hope your questions answered!;)
