      I'd like to post my own experience about N70. I bought N70 a week ago and my impression about the phone so far is very good. Only minus point perhaps is the small keypad. Perhaps WIFI would be nice too but you cant have everything. I do not find the phone speed to be slow at all and the multitasking is pretty impressive. Camera is good and the light sensor for the flash is a nice feature. Sound is good and loud. It's my first symbian phone and im already in love with the operating system. For all those people that have so many negative points about the phone they are prob lying or have an older firmware. You can check the firmware by typing *#0000#. Latest is V 3.0546.2.3 19-11-05 RM-84. BTW, i have some bluetooth problems connecting the phone to my Dell Lattitude D800 (It uses a WIDCOMM driver for bluetooth) although it was fine with Lattitude D610 (Toshiba driver). Overall, i think its a great phone. Thank you.

            well i gave it a go, had the n70 for about 6 weeks and bored with it already.
            I've found it to be very slow when playing games and sending texts, sound quality is great no probs there but dissapointed that theres no equalizer. camera is ok as well but no autofocus.
            I'm moving to a sew800 to give it a try i like a phone to be everything mp3 player, radio, camera and phone. i had a k750 before so know what i'm getting into with the w800.
            don't get me wrong the N70 is a good phone but with a few tweeks it could have brilliant.

              I got my N-70 2 weeks back. was very excited to get it as i was using 7610 so it was a big upgrade(though is got samsung d-600 for about a week before n-70) but after getting the phone in my hand and using it for 2 weeks i found that nothing is extra-ordinary about the nseries and there is no need for such a hyp.. i found the following problems..

              1. The phone get crash many times using the web.
              2. java games runs very slow.
              3. phonebook editing is very slow.
              4. overall performance is not good at all.
              5. sound quality is bad.
              6. ringtones problems... sometime it rings sometime not

              i hope nokia people is listening and they should provide with the frimware upgrade soon to remove these problems...

                3. sometimes d phone rings n sometimes dun
                4. sound recording time only 1 minute
                5. even if sound is customised it still it plays the default nokia theme when phone rings

                    as an owner of the N70 i can say most of the comments on this board come from people who dont even own the phone, or people too stupid to use a smart phone. my phone easily connects to my computer and i use MP3 ringtones happily. it is a tad slow but when you consider its a mini computer and whats its capable of over other phones you can forgive it.

                          I don't know about u.s. , but here in Romania i love to see my little girl LIVE on my N70. However, the phone is great, a little slow, but great and if you want a real phone you should buy it.The design is superb, with the 2 megapixel camera you make an unexpected good pics, especialy outdoor, the sound is great and I can continue with apreciations but i let you descover N70 yourself. By the way, don't let my origins fool you, this is my 51 top line phone and I love it.

                            I had my N70 for a bit now and I have to say my previous phone 6230i was much better then the N70. The main problems with the N70 is that it's very slow to open any application and if you have big fingers it's had to text.

                            The main problem I encountered is when I removed the memory card with all my music on it, it wouldn't recognise the card again when reinserting it, the only way I found out to sort the problem is to format the card and start again. Very annoying!!!

                                      The only problem I have had is the horrible delay when taking a photo. It can be about 1/2 a second but when taking photos of something moving it is very annoying.

                                        is there any way to make the volume from the headphones any louder it seems quite quiet to me.
