    Hi robson,
    to your golf game: i think its on the card you got from nokia with the phone. replacing it with your 1gb card, you lost it. i believe, there are 3 ways to get it back: a) copy it from the old card on the same place on the new on b) go to catalog (in "system" folder), refresh catalog and you will find it there for downloading c) go to nokia page and download it (german page: http://www.nokia.de/de/service/produktservice/mobiltelefone/
    produkte/213960.html)

    greets

          i had it for less than 24hrs already had a keyboard backlight problem. i had the asian version. so it might be hardware or software issue. oh the other hand i did like it i was getting use to it too.

              I've been using Nokia's phones for years.. Now I have 3 Nokias.. N70, N80 and E61... And so far, E61 is the best between two others..

              I really like its QWERTY keyboard.. Soft and firm, but I think it will be a little hard to type for a person who has big thumbs.. The screen is big enough for me to see (I wear glasses).. Hehehehehe.. Bluetooth is fast because it has 2.0... The browser is faster than N80, in GPRS or Wi-Fi mode... Accesing menu is even faster than N80.. Speaker is louder and clearer than N80, but not as loud as N70... As far as I know, E61 is one of the best from Nokia.. I'm really satisfied with this E61...

              The only problem that I got.. Accesing 'Contacts'.. It was too slow to open it... But after I typed "*#7370# to re-format, my E61 runs well, until now...

              Other things, if E61 has a better screen resolution like N80.. I think E61 would be the best E-series phone that Nokia ever produced... or even the best for all Nokias..

                    to Jay, for the browser, think you can find it anywhere on E61 review. quite easy to find. i'm satisfied with the browser's rendering speed.

                    to Vikky, yeah another one bought it. got mine on 1st aug. i'm satisfied with this E61. but to me, it's not perfect yet. with such 'big' screen, the resolution should be higher, why Nokia gives E60 and E70 with such high resolution but with a smaller screen. for the future improvement, maybe 'E61i', i'd like a better resolution, supports bluetooth 2.0, radio would be great, but no camera pls:) and better utilization of the big screen, the current menu is such a waste of space. plus i want the volume keys be able to function as jogdial - page up/down. the key button has rubber felling which is good, but i'm afraid with long usage, the rubber will be gone and the chrs are not readable (maybe i worry too much:), well, those are my wish list Nokia :) keep up the good work and maybe i'll buy the future 'E61i' again :) very satisfied with the casing design, firm, solid, the material is also great. the only complain about the physical aspect is the keypad buttons leave too big 'holes', afraid the dust would go inside. a great phone

                          @F4pr

                          loud enough, but the quality definitely can't be compared with W600. anyway, W600 is still the loudest one.

                            i don't know how loud w600i or razr are, but is E61 is loud enough for me. if the volume is set to max, and you clip it on your belt, you should still be able to hear it on a busy street.

                                      hi -- i have had an e61 for about two weeks. I love most of it but i have to send it back.Its the usual syncing problem. I cannot get my contacts over toit without it crashing and the e61 contacts book gving up. i have about 6000 contacts and i tried loading in small chunks after it failed first time. doin it that way i got up to about 3000 plus but then it collapsed. otherwise the interface was better tahn the blackberry as far as i could tell (hae ben a blackberry user for two years). I set up the e61 with vodafone for push email. it was easy to turn on and off which is nice for the weekends and easy to open attachments. I am used to the blackberry and that the blackberry also syncs up your to-do list from outlook in a serviceable fashion wheras the nokia only give you the title nd whether it is completed or not- less of a problem than the contacts thing which is essential! shame
