    Mostafa, 12 Jul 2009HI all I just bought this phone 3 days ago, all what i ... more-Buggy phone, considering the amount of time before it was released.

    -slow cpu.

    -Videos and photos takes too long to open.

    -lack of smart dialing.

    -not capacitive touchscreen.

    -nothing great in its camera.

    -The rear panel had a problem sitting back into the grooves.

    -Closing the keyboard has an annoying loud sound.

    -dont have that elegant look, not a head turner like other phones specially iphone.

    -The History for contacts option is not available.

    -Lack of a Visual Radio application.

    -No relevant codecs like DivX and XviD for video playback.

    -It all supports AV out but no cables have been included.

    -The games are not impressive.

    -Its business features are limited to a limited edition of QuickOffice wherein you can’t create documents of your own.


    NOTHING SPECTACULAR BUT THE MEMORY. N97 IS JUST A PRETTY GOOD 5800 UPGRADE, BUT NOT AS GOOD AND LIKE THOSE OTHER IPHONE COMPETITORS, NOT LIKE THAT.

                    Maybe you should do a bit of research before you make stuff up.

                        ...read this.

                        "27.11.2008

                        Quake 3 Arena is here, featuring support for bluetooth keyboard / mouse support. Also unlike with previous Quake ports, with this one you can even run a server on the phone :P So head to the download page to get it and be sure to read the installation instructions carefully from the installation page. And donations are still welcome ;)

                        This one is for N95 8gb, N82 and E90 only..."

                        Now do you want to explain how you managed to port this to the N97, bearing in mind it's not using S60v3 doesn't have enough RAM and doesn't have a graphics processor like the N95 8GB, N82 and E90.

                        Maybe you can point out which version you are using.

                        http://koti.mbnet.fi/hinkka/Download.html

                        QuickOffice for S60v5 is not available yet as you can see by choosing the N97 here:-

                        Off you go, back to fantasyland.

                            Waiting for successor to n97:))))

                            am now happy with my toy iPod touch and basic phone!

                            N98 should have faster processor and bigger ram and gpu
                            because nokia has no choice to put lousy CPU and ram in it's flagship
                            n98 my next upgrade from basic phone:)

                            n98 is loaded with symbian foaubdation os and xenon

                                The 600MHz ARM 8 processor, 256MB RAM and PowerVR SVX graphics really are an improvement on the iPhone 3G..

                                ...I pity poor suckers stuck with old sub 500MHz processors and 128MB of RAM, they don't know what they are missing without some real processing power.
