hi everyone, i have been using N71 for 3 months now. It's not the perfect phone, but still I LOVE IT! as for your inquiries, here are my answers...
a. scratched screen - as it has been suggested a gazillion times, use a screen protector. This is a design flaw. =)
b. slow SMS sending - you may go to the nokia website (N71 support) and download the SMS Accelerator. It indeed made SMS sending a lot faster.
c. Rotating pictures - you may rotate pictures in gallery by going to EDIT then APPLY EFFECT. :)
d. poor signal - i just discovered that since networks has just incorporated the 3G network, they dont have as much cell sites available yet. meaning, it is not available everywhere (unlike GSM or regular network) and since there are only a few cell sites where it's available, there's traffic.
e. "memory eating" - i am experiencing it myself with my phone (phone memory and memory card) i still dont have any answer as to why this happens. others say that it's a glitch with the S60 3rd ed. i found out that there are hundreds of small files in source folder in the memory card that may be the files that's eating up the storage device. i havent tried deleting them yet..
i hope i was able to help. thanks!

with reguards to rotating images in the standard gallery app,it also does not work on my N71, but i dont care, cos i use Resco Photo Viewer, for viewing all my pics, it is a briliant app & way better than the standard gallery app..

I bought my N71 phone last three weeks ago and so far I'm contented with it. The large screen display is superb and I don't have any problem with the scratches things. I think it depends on how you take good care of your phone.
With regards to the internal memory, my free space right now is about 10.50mb. I usually put all my pictures, videos and application in my 1 gb memory card.
The sound quality is great and the camera is better than nokia n70.

there's a softare called sms accelerator that you can download from the nokia support site. they said that this will boost the speed of sending messages

I just bought the n71 yesterday and so far the only problem that i have encountered was I couldnt rotate the images in the gallery. I already tried using the shortcut keys for rotating images and i also tried searching for the rotate option from the menu but it was not there. Please, anyone help me...Does your n71 also have this problem?
PS: the sound quality of the speaker and headset of the n71 is great, actually it is one of the best i heard so far...screen is also very clear.
thanks!

I am very happy with my N71, no real scratches with screen problem, I also recently put on a screen protector on the external & internal screens and it enhances the picture a bit, the one main niggle I have is the really low amount of internal memory of around 10mb, I find it not sufficient, my phone is has a about 5.8mb free, memory even though all my apps and games and pics are on my 1gb memory card, what are other peoples comments regarding the internal memory size.

N71-1 is 3G capable while N71-5 is GSM-only. Same with N91-1 which has 3G and Wi-Fi. N91-5 (my phone) is a crippled version of N91-1, no 3G and no Wi-Fi.

I have this phone for about a month now, its a n71-1 RM-67, I'm using a "2GB Transcend MiniSD 80X" memory card and it's great(no hanging, high speed)Recommended!!!
+ best display (Colors and size)
+ good price (compered to n80, n73, n72, ...)
+ great camera (2MP outside, KP inside)
+ speaker (reasonable)
+ connectivities
+ Package (128MB MiniSD, headset, ...)
+ OS 9.1
- bad finishing (scratch on display because of the key pad, light leakage around the key pad, ... the making quality of SonyE and samsung are lot better!)
- heavy (~139g)
- dis pointing keypad
- weak battery, i have to recharge it every 2 days, some times every day (this is a problem with all OS 9.1 phones, guess we need a revolution in the battery industray.
* does any one know the difference between n71-1(RM-67) and n71-5(RM-112)?????????

to: "slow message sending."
well, when u press the button for sending the message, the phone minimizes this option and lets u do other things while the message is sent.. and it isn't any problem with this.. the mechanism works just perfect...

to "The design looks like a duck bill. The sw hangs up and the flip cracks when you open it...sucks"
>>>>> "The opening and closing mechanism, however, works perfectly. It produces a click sound so you would know when you have reached the desired position. Nokia N71 has two opened positions. The first is for video calls and the phone is not fully opened yet. We usually call this a "sitting" position since in that position the phone is made to "sit" on your desk while you are making a video call. If you go all the way, it will seamlessly open entirely." --
well, i love this phone, the player and the sound quality is just perfect, the best i heard untill now, and i saw a lot of phones believe me, the camera also perfect. it has a cool design.
and also, San is perfectly right, you can remove those keypad prints on the screen by wiping the screen with a soft cloth, just like u do with u're glasses. They're not really scratches at all.
