              Fantastic phone, have this phone last Apr 08. After upgrading my firmware to 400.34.011 (latest) my phone is even more faster than before from boot up to web browsing tru wifi or GRPS (3G). And im sure it will support even 32gb of memory card.
              Add'l apps was Share Online and Internet Radio.

              Thanks to all E51 guru esp. Original Jamaican and Winura..

                AM, 19 Aug 2009will this phone take 16 gb memory card?To AM:

                Yes the E51 will work with a 16GB Micro-SD card. You can virtually use any SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) memory card in the E51. Even 32GB when it's available.

                For best results upgrade your firmware to the latest because it will have better support for higher capacity memory cards among other things.

                If you go ahead and get a 16GB tell me all about it and how the E51 behaves with it.

                My 8GB works fast in my E51.

                  Thank you for the support. I will always try my best to help others in need of advice.

                  Since you are phone hunting, why not try the E52. It's out now.

                    Winura, 19 Aug 2009OJ, thought you've upgraded to the E71 mate...WINURA my friend, I had the E71 for a few weeks. A friend of mine gave me to upgrade the firmware. We swapped phones until I got the job done. The longer I kept the E71, the longer I found myself missing my E51 so I decided NOT to bother upgrading to the E71.

                    There are a few nifty things in the E51 that I prefer...like the ability to see at a glance, if text messages will be sent to internal memory or memory card. I store my messages on my 8GB memory card as to keep my internal memory as free as possible.

                    With the E71 you will have to go to options / settings / other...then scroll to the bottom just to see where text messages are being sent to. The E71 doesn't have the icon at the top left of the screen to show you these things at a glance. That's just one of the turnoffs with the E71. Another turnoff is the very long time it takes to backup the entire phone memory. The last time I checked it was about 10 mins. whereas the E51 does it in 38 secs. Bear in mind that this test was conducted with both E51 & E71 phone memory being as free as possible with no personal files stored in either internal memory.

                    I know the E71 have more built-in stuff like barcode scanner etc. but speed is key nevertheless. Furthermore I can install a barcode scanner in my E51 just the same and put it on the memory card which means my internal backup will still be the same 38 secs.

                    Winura my next phone may very well be the E52...even though there's no dedicated contacts key...but that's another story.

                    Until next time my friend, take care.

                                    i agree that side buttons are major flaws. if you charge too long, the side buttons(rubber) will burn.

                                      I live in Malaysia and I recently loss my phone. I am very interested in the E51 and had been searching high and low for the E51. Sadly, I was informed by the local authorized distributor that this phone is NO longer available. How can such a fantastic phone be gone so fast? Does anyone here know where I can get this phone in Malaysia?
