Hi,

I am planing to buy N79. I read all the comments posted on this site.
But i heard that usually 'N' series nokia phones hangs as the memory capacity of the phone increases.
Is this true in the case of N79?

I basically look for:
- Good camera
- Good music (i always listen to music)
- support Conference calls
- Great Looks
- And mobile software should be fast

Actually i liked the iPhone 3.5G but i felt its bulky and would be a bit nusence to keep it in the pocket so dropped that idea.

Thanks.

                today was the second day with this phone! i browsed 4 hours continuously using wifi! anthen 1 more hour using edge!tok 38 photos!made a 5 min long and 2 of 3 min long video! talked for atleast half an hour!send 8 sms es! and was always on music from 7 am to 10 pm!and i came back home with only 2 stick of charge taken away from the full charge!wwwwwwwwwwwwwwoooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
                this must be a record for nokia!super i just love this phone!didnt even hang once!super fast!the net was awesome!the pages was as clear as pc!(played a lot of facebook games in it!) love the auto rotate! and also mastered the navigation pad!
                and another thing i noticed when i was walking through a very sunny dy!the sunlight legibility is superb!
                but there is one problem!it is quite a new platform!so not to many softwares r out there!and do not have backward compatibility!
                another thing is that today i couldnt download any suff like music! and couldnt watch youtube!can any 1 help why?(u may ask den if i didnt do ne of those den wat did i do in net for 5 hrs!simple Facebook!)!please thasnking u in advance for letting me know!
                and i hav another regret ,unfortuntely i got the silver version(white 1 wasnt available!coz they only brought 4 sets in whole Bangladesh! of the set!though it looks more classy but its boring!so ne1 wanting some coolness go for the white one!but still this phone is the best nokia ever made!and one last thing!it might not hav xenon but the photo quality is great and with dual led's u can tke night videos which u cant do with xenono!so ur choice on that!

                        I brought this phone 8th Nov 08.
                        Overall performance is good.

                        Can anyone please let me know how to increase loudspeaker volume even if speaker volume at 100%? Is there any other internal setting available for adding sound effect?

                                that auto-rotate is really cool...
                                it's the phone i ever seen got the almost perfect specs in this generation..
                                that software is stable and never got any trouble..
                                thta is what a phone i expected...
                                i should buy..
                                although the price is reasonable...
                                but really cheap..
                                hehe
                                so just wait and see...
