yeah it looks good, has a gr8 set of features mouth watering 262K screen..this fone rocks allright!!!
or does it??
the prob with nokia is that they have a bad habit of raising cust expectations to high levels... only to crash them down on terra firma!!! for those of u who don't believe me, chek this out...

case in point- N6600 gr8 looks gr8 features..but screwed up sound quality...screwed up camera...no pop-port...no mp3 ring tones(when samsung, SE, motorola had recognised the need for mp3ringtones already) only blue tooth connectivity(believe me transferring mp3s by BT is pretty slow)...to top it all the N6620 (the US version of the 6600)had a popport..hmmm..wonder why???

case in point- N3230 same old crap about looks and features..this one had a pop port, had FM and even megapixel camera!!!ALLRIGHT!!!
and then i discover that the processor in the fone is pretty slow and that the fone buttons are hard to use...awwww crap.

case in point-N6260 nokia finnaly realised that the public wanted more smart fones so the released a plethora os symbian ones...the 6260 was the first smartfone to have a pop port and FM radio...but guess wat??it had a screwed up 0.3 MP camera and the build quality was pretty bad..though its not that fantastic either...
i could go on and on and on..why the hell do they do this??? the point i'm making here is that nokia have a trackrecord of releasing a fone tha seems to have EVERYTHING...but it lacks some feature or the other which detracts from the overall experience.
you know wat i mean...ur friend will have a lower nodel nokia and while ur comparing notes she sez "oh, ur fone can't send ringtones???but mine can!!! wats the use of having such an expensive fone if it can't even do something as basic as that???"
don't get me wrong , i love nokia for their 6600..i used the fone for a year and other that some small probs it worked fine...once it fell from my hand while i was talkin and hit the granite floor so hard it bounced back into my hand!!!
i hope jorma oulia(or watever) is listening..

looks nice though i think this phone can take a good smack on the floor but all these other mobile phones are soo confuseing loads of N-SERIES and other types to be honest i like the sound of this phone if i'm gonna pay out loads of money for a mobile then i'll except it to take a good knocking around on the floor and a good smash !! well done nokia

YES IT IS UGLY! BUT I don´t care about the design, just the performance and that it can stand water,dust and shock!

And that the knobs are way better than the 5140 crappy knobs!

To me it looks plain Ugly..but it seems many people are eager to have one and they like this design.But are you guys will be carrying it around everywhere??? or you will use it just for workout..well then its a smart phone..not gonna be cheap.You have to have two phones.

... just a thought.
