I love this phone, but people should no that the following features are missing (need to be clarified too, maybe some of these features are available and not missing)

1- Battery life is not good or Average

2- No Dual Speakers

3- No Camera Auto Focus

4- No Camera Optical Zoom (only Digital Zoom)

5- Digital Zoom is only for Pictures and not for Video

6- Picture Editor available only and no Video Editor

7- Video fram/Second is only 15 at 352x288 and not 30 frames/second

8- Camera is exposed and not covered (can get dirty)

9-Standard Camra Lens and not the good "Carl Zeiss"

10- No "TV out" to see pictures/video taken on TV (like in Samsung D600)

11- no built-in hands free

12- no PDF viewer

13- Mobiles looks small but in fact its THICK

14- no 3.5mm audio Jack

15- Alarm is not repeatable

16- Keypad not friendly according to one of the reviews

17- chargable through USB ? (yes or no !!)

For people who know more than me, can you please clarify what I have wrote? Any mistake I made?

          Two questions,why N80 doesnt have?
          -16mil colour display, like N92?
          -Carl Zeis lens,like N90?

          I guess for comercial reasons,
          just wait untill its succesor (N81?) has all this,
          but again imagine with what Sharp will come up to, two years from now;-)

                this phone looks amazing, it's very small and yet it's packed with features, i'll look into getting one next year in the summer.

                it's just so cool.

                      the phone is really great, I like it.

                      But in the pre-production version there are some features missing and it is a bit buggy..

                      But the camera is great, and the best thing is connectivity, Wi-Fi, BT and IrDA rulezzz! :)

                          I also won an ebay auction and ebay withdrew the sale for fraud investigation. It was very dodgy as the location of the seller was in New York but the payment was to be made to an account in Spain. Incidently I noticed the same listing again tonight but with a different seller whom I have reported to ebay already. Those scammers are really preying on people's desires!

                            EBay scammers selling N80. I recently won a bid only to have eBay withdraw the auction due to "confidential" security reasons. If it's too good to be true, then it probably is.

                              This phone rulezz, for now it will be my next phone!!
                              For me it´s just missing one thing: Stereo speakers with 3D effects / 2.1 Stereo Surround Sound (2 tweeters + 1 bass loudspeaker)like Alcatel OT-S853.

                                Do Not Trust Fake Ebay Auctions. If the phone is not out, then the auction is a fake. Almost all of these fake auctions are from hijacked Ebay accounts. You will notice that these auctions ask you to email them outside of Ebay. (this is because these hackers cannot receive emails on the ebay account, they urge buyers to email them on a differnt account)
