                I can minimize operamini by pressing right hard key. i think u can minimize other java apps too. thus multitasking! isnt it?

                    Guys, I've been using SE for the last 5 years - W800, K800, K810, K850, is this Samsung easy to get used to after so long with one brand? And there's mixed reviews regarding battery life - is it a weak point or is it ok?

                      trust me... u will love this set more than nokia. u will see how many features are not there in nokia, but is there in this set. this is 100 times more user-friendly than nokia.
