                @Newton Leonardo: Is this a phone or is a brick? come on 150g 117*70*13.9mm I think that k550i looks more beter and the price...

                    The lastest 2.x firmware has the predicted text feature. You may want to update to this version

                          Hi frnds. I m a new user of E61i. Earlier i was using E50. The prob is i hv installed various 3rd party softwares in my E50 like smartmovie,etc from funmaza.com but whn i m installing the same softwares in my new E61i, it says Certificate error. The crack given in funmaza.com is to change the year to 2006 and then install. I've done that too. But no improvement. Can anyone suggest how to install the 3rd party s/w. Or can u suggest me any other website frm where i can download the s/w for free.
                          Pls help me out.
                          Byee

                            the screen was actually cracked so i replaced it, still when i turn it on it just freezes with the screen lit but nothing on it. i tired to contact nokia here in canada but they told me theres nothing they can do because the phone is not from north america.
                            any suggestions???

                                  Mike, this phone can't be dropped man!! Your E61i's screen is burned now (if it doesn't show anything). Go to Nokia Care Center (if your phone comes with a warranty, they'll fix this problem for free.).. Be careful next time!
                                  Cheers,
                                  Abed.

                                      I'm an extreme E61 user since 2006. This is my review, hope they helps for people who wants to own the phone in future.

                                      Pros:
                                      + superb voice clarity during calls
                                      + very good signal reception everywhere
                                      + great comfortable & classy thin design
                                      + good full-fuctional qwerty keyboard with some useful shortcuts of bluetooth, IrDA, etc
                                      + good & realible phonebook
                                      + useful 64mb internal memory with around 46,5mb ram always available in standby
                                      + fast writing speed in message or notes, no lag
                                      + great display quality
                                      + software compitability with other Nokia official themes of Eseries & Nseries making the phone's menu interface always look updated (this is a very good mark, by the way)
                                      + fast menu interface of the symbian OS
                                      + complete kinds of feature & connection such pop-portUSB, IrDa, Bluetooth, GPRS, EDGE, 3G, Wlan, Modem, PTT (the last one is totally useless in almost every country)
                                      + great internet browser plus wifi
                                      + nice and user-friendly mp3 player
                                      + very good music quality using original Nokia HS-23 handsfree set (found in-box with N80 or others)
                                      + editable equaliser for optimal good sound experience
                                      + remakable speed of menu operation even using 2gb card (I'm using original Nokia miniSD)
                                      + great build quality, steel bodyparts
                                      + good battery life.

                                      Cons:
                                      - no camera (yes - business needs camera)
                                      - so sadly, no radio with RDS
                                      - slow java (.jar games / application)
                                      - slow message reading ..IF.. using memory card as the default sms storage
                                      - joystick, not as friendly as Dpad
                                      - if you install more than about 17 themes, than the new ones will replace the older one randomly, & sometimes it delete your favourite one (to be replaced with the new theme). Trust me it really hit you hard when happens :( maybe the maximum amount of additional themes are less than 20? you decide what best for your E61 however
                                      - only one minute voice recording available as default (don't talk about 3rd party software-this still a loss)
                                      - not even standard repeat alarm available, even my previous entry-level Nokia 1600, 2310, 1200 has it.
                                      - keyboard needs to be improved for maximum ease of use (straight example; while driving - even it's so unsafe using ANY phone, actually)
                                      - disastrous & unrecognisable sound / ringtone / music quality when using maximum volume via loudspeaker (this one is a serious drawback of otherwise good phone)
                                      - pop-port connector, not miniUSB
                                      - no standard 3,5mm audio jack (oh well, at least 2,5mm will do)
                                      - not ergonomic sim card bed (this issue may only occur for people who changes their simcards often, it's not really matters actually)
                                      - miniSD access possible only if you remove the battery cover first. Now the thing is about this, the Eseries born kind of all-business thing, so they were meant to keep most secret valueable datas of the user very carefull, that means the storage (memory card) are designed to be located hidden under battery cover for maximum protection. But still, if you own this unit of E serie and if you keep confidental data on it, will you ever let anyone touch your phone from the first place? If anyone really wants your data they will just go (steal) for the phone, instead of the memory card only.

                                      note:
                                      1. I don't miss a secondary videocall camera, but adding it will make it compelete of course. (or make it became Nseries-labeled?)
                                      2. I know some of the above-mentioned cons are covered with the update model of E61i, but some things are just stand for itself. Like this unit, i just won't exchange it for E61i just because of minor issues above. Hope u get what i mean.
                                      3. My E61 firmware is 1.0610.04.04 dated 19-04-06 code RM-89. I never, ever, not even once- update the software of my device. It still running smoothly with no error or crash at all.
