Shock & Surprise !

I bought this phone and read that it has great battery of 1050mAH. But to my shock for the first 7 days the battery used to last just 6-8 hours with just 30 minutes talk time !!

I thought some was wrong with the battery and was about get it replaced. Then i read on the internet that WLAN when switched on with a few applications like Skype can drain your battery in no time. I just uninstalled skype & set the WLAN scanning to off. Surprise surprise i was able to get the 'claimed 4hours of talktime' !!!

Amazing phone, just a not of caution. The WLAN feature though very good drains your battery badly. So use it with caution. Otherwise i have no complaints at all.

    e51 is way better than 6120 classic... honestly.. the best nokia phone at the moment.. if your looking for a non multimedia phone.... the dedicated keys, small size, metal housing, and wifi.. make this phone really good..

          Nokia E51 (Type RM-244)
          CERTIFICATION INFORMATION (SAR)
          THIS MOBILE DEVICE MEETS GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.

          Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.

          The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten grams of tissue. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network base station. The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device at the ear is 1.40 W/kg.

          Use of device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band. Additional SAR information may be provided under product information at www.nokia.com.

                                  I want to ask whether this can handle all 3rd party software application as is done by N73 , this fone being worked on the same OS as N73 . Is the MP3 o/p(headset) of this fone sufficient enough for a mediocre music listener ...
