    Can someone answer me please. Will the new firmware with the new UI animations slow down the N81. . . like the slow N78 with its animated UI?

        I bought N81 8GB in March 08. So far, this phone has been working perfectly albeit there are a few limitations which needs to be come around by Nokia; Hopefull in their new and forthcoming models. I have put some of them below:

        1. It has limitations for video streaming. I tried to play a video from youtube, but after approximately 15 seconds it stopped working. It may be because of the processor speed, which tends to be higher in the flagship models such as E90 or N96.

        2. Internet browsing experience might not be as perfect as that in Apple iPhone. N81 8GB does not quite support slideshow-based applications such as slideshow albums in flickr. I tried to open flickr from the in-device browser but only the webpage appeared on the screen, not the slideshow.

        However, I would provide with a 7.3 as an overall rating for this device.

        If there is anyone who owns an N81 8GB and like to share his/her experience, you are gladly welcome to do so.

        Thank you,
        Manna

                        www.ipmart-forum.com is where you can get Ngage games, you cant load your old Ngage games on to this because they are on different platforms.
