*** N73 much Better option then the N80***
hi,
Mona and Ali asked which N series to buy
Go for the N73
1) better Camera
2) Bigger Screen
3) Slim and not Bulky like the N80
4) 2 GB mininSD card

But make sure you buy the new music edition of N73 and not the old one.

I have a detailed review on this page posted on the 9th .

    I've been using the N80 for a week now and I can say it's an awesome phone. If there's some complaining to do, I'd say the battery life really sux. I use it for work and sometimes I don't have the charger at hand, so it's kinda annoying that the phone runs down on me only after a day of "regular phone" use. This means, I don't watch that many videos, or shoot pictures that often or use it as an "alternative" iPod (I have one already, thanx!). I think NOKIA should work on that a little bit more.
    Another aspect I didn't like was the fact thta you CAN'T combine the info on your SIM card with the phone memory for your contacts. I had a Nokia 6230 and it gave you the choice to use both, the phone memory AND the SIM card memory for storing/accesing contacts. The N80 "demands" that ALL contacts be copied to phone memory, so u can take advantage of more detailed entries. But, if you want to add a picture to one of your contacts, you can't "access" the picture if you want to edit it. That choice is never given. Also, there's no clear indication of whether you want to use the SD memory OR the phone memory. Let's say you want to store some "private" memories on the SD card and hide it in a folder you only know about. Well, so far, the N80 is NOT giving me that choice. It you want to check the multimedia contect in front of some friends, watch out! You might be showing them something you DON'T want them to see!!!

    Despite these complaints, the N80 is still a great phone that might just demand more attention than previous NOKIA models.

                I was using the Hp IPaq 6300 series Pocket PC phone and it was my worst experience, used to hang up a lot and very bulky. I still have that phone sitting at home coz I just didn’t have the heart to sell out this sick phone to some one else. I am crazy about phones and like to change my phone every 3-4 months, I just get bored.

                Any Ways, I wanted to try out the Nokia this time after a lot of research, I finally decided to go for the N80 even though and I had read a lot of bad comments on this phone, but I was convinced that the new Internet edition has an updated software and the previous hanging up issues are resolved. And I have been using this phone for 3 months now and I am quite pleased with, performance wise it’s a good phone “ never hung up even a single time” .

                BUT there are a few drawbacks like 1) screen is too small and I prefer the touch screens 2) Camera quality is not very good 3) little fat 4) Has Wifi but of now use coz I tried browsing the internet but the screen is too small its no fun. If you compare the N80 with the N73 , I would go for the N73 its much better. If you want to use internet then go for the Nokia 9300i Communicator.
                So I am going to sell this N80 ( resale market is good ) and going for the i-mate JasJam this time, lets see how long I keep this one.

                                  i thinks you should take it to some store where reparing of phone is done. i think they will flash your phone.
                                  i think.
                                  hope it will help you
