          elcome to the first in a series of blogs about the N97.

          I have been the proud owner of a Nokia N97 for over a month now, and in that time Nokia has rolled out a firmware update as well as updates to many of the included apps. But I have noticed, there are still many bugs, many irregularities, and many missing features.

          That said, I have compiled a list of features missing but highly desired or needed, as well as fixes required.
          They are as follows:

          1) RAM
          - Allow some of the Mass Memory to be used as 'Virtual RAM', its the only software solution, optimising apps is not enough
          2) C: Memory
          - Should be larger, 74MB is not enough, especially when there is 32GB available in the Mass Memory
          3) Home Screen
          - Allow muliple Home Screens, all customizable, flick screen lef or right to display
          - Allow running apps to be displayed by flicking Home Screen in same manner, but flicking up or down
          - Any widets/apps runnning that require an internet connection should have thier own editable connection settings
          - Allow folders to be selected in the shortcuts widget, just like apps and bookmarks
          - Bug when Mass Memory mode is used, widgets that were installed on the Mass Memory are removed from the Home Screen, and are not put back.
          4) Application Manager
          - Allow the easy removal of any application installed, including default apps and Nokia helper/setup apps
          5) Music, Videos and Photos
          - Provide codec support for various video formats, in paricular divx
          - Fix video and photos browsers to correctly display all content
          - Photo Browser should not display videos
          - Music player should have visulizaions
          6) UI Theme Effects
          - Provide the effects displayed in the promotion advertisments, whenever touching the touch screen, a blot is displayed on screen at the point of touch and sound made at the same time
          - Consolidate the tapping through menus. Either everything is single tap or everything is double tap
          7) Keyboard
          - The 'long press' for numbers
          - An On-screen querty keyboard
          8) Task Manager
          - Should display used/available RAM, phone memory and mass memory, as well as running apps
          - Should notify of an app thats jus been placed into the background, so i can be either closed or hidden, as some apps 'disapeer' into the background, you forget or dont realise they are still running, and are using valuable RAM
          9) Web Browser
          - Better Flash support
          - Needs simple 1 push back/forward buttons
          - Needs simple 1 push close/exit button
          - Needs cut and paste
          - Needs right click to offer options such as save picture
          - Buttons should be transparent
          10) N-Gage
          - Games need to take up the full screen
          - Should be able to use touch screen to drag games around there enviroments, rather than using the D pad
          11) Connection Manager
          - A simplified and automatic way of changing beween 3G and Wifi and back and forth again
          14) Making Calls
          - The ability to make/hang up calls using the green/red buttons, rather than the current swipe method
          15) Email
          - MFE should support HTML email

                    I am thinking about buying one of these phones, the spec says that this phone has 'Flash Lite 3' does this mean that it can run flash content on webpages?

                                Was told by the saleman at the shop that they can add Chinese display and input into n97 if I buy the n97 without warranty

                                just wonder how they do it to add Chinese input in n97?
