Nokia say N81 is a pure Music/Gaming phone.I had the N81 for 3 Days & I'll tell you straight,the N81 sucks big time. Audio quality is poor via headsets and it doesn't stand a chance against N91 though I must say games do look good on n81.I think Nokia should take off music from their slogan and keep gaming on!I would have expected Nokia to make a better music phone as we move into the future but instead their music build quality just keeps going down the drain. If nokia say it is EU Restriction on volume how come Sony Ericssonphones dont have EU Restriction on volume?Nokia dont want to make a phone that does everything an All in One so therefore they limit things on ther handset!BTW the executive director for nokia was interviewd by the press & they asked if the nokia n81 will have same audio quality as n91 and he said yes but were is the quality gone?What a lie. Nokia Executive Director/Nokia need to apologise to their customers and compensate those who bought a phone that cannot perform the job as well as N91 in music! Finally the N81/N95 8GB are only going to get 2 - 4 firmware updates & that's,It's going to become dead just like the N93 firmware.Expensive models without any updates!This is marketing hype by Nokia,and all their doing is misleading customers.

Please give me a link to where it says W960 is better?
W960 needs a better CPU for better video and UI peformance!! It cant realy handle all iPod/PSP 30FPS converted videos like the N81 does.

How ridiculous!W960 has been proven to be a better music phone than n81.To continually quote cpu speeds on such a device as n81 is laughable...tell me when a w960 would EVER need to run at 0ver 200mhz?wmv video would require that but as of now...

This is way better than a lil SE W960!! The lil W960 only got a poor 208mhz CPU and thats it, N81 got a 369mhz CPU plus a Sound DSP chip,also LOADS more applications, LOUD 3D loudspeakers, a great Navi-wheel in Gallery and in Music Player its like using an iPod! As a music and gaming phone its the best,and WAY better than a W960 as a Music phone, Internet Browser and faster UI.

This phone is meant to excel in audio but in this department im afraid the n81 trails WAY behind S.E.w960 and I-phone.Screen is terrible when sunshine is shining!keypad awkward.The whole unit just feels cheap.Don't waste your money on this stopgap production.

emkar -> it does come with th data cable
rob -> to use the data cable correctly, you need to made sure than no application are using the memory card.
close any applications installed on card.
make sure you change the 'memory in use' under messages to phone memory... you should be good to go.
system is very fast, much faster than other series phones, it has a processor
ssaloon -> no gps... does have the maps, but you'll have to buy the external model

Quality phone
Just bought it but do any of you know how to work 'mass memory'? Im trying to put images from my phone onto my computer but whenever I plug the phone in and select 'Data transfer' it just says 'Unable to activate data transfer mode. Mass memory is in use on another application.' Any tips? Apart from that its a qaulity phone
