I had the same problem, In the end i had to have a replacement joystick.

My joystick stopped working to the left. (would work if pushed hard)

I have had the new Joystick for about 4 weeks and its much better than my orignial one ever was.

@darrengf - How much did it cost you replacing it mate? Or was it still UNDER warranty?

9 way joystick is good for games. but practically useless for anything else

@kllr_dude - Should reach :9 pages loong mate! I page for each STROKE of the joystick!

@k700nut - Good for you . . . specially if you are a 'PDA-guy-user' mate But for me, the S700 will suit my taste BETTER I guess !

@kllr to put a joy for fun features is pointless, i do agree with u, especially when its get faulty and cause problems at the real mission of a fone...

@kllr...Lol.Been some good feedback though.It's surprising how many esatonians have encountered these "lazy joy" problems,and the k7 is still new/ish.@jn..I'm still trying to get to grips with the p9.It took me half a day to configure it bud.Lol

@k700nut - Half-day ? With a fone like that, it will surely take me half-week to FULLY understand it's FEATURES . . . as my Nokia 9210i only took me some 30 minutes to master it's over-all capabilities, specially when turning the POWER on and off . . .

@jn...Ha ha mate.I wouldn't normally go for a "smart/pda",but it was a an absolute bargain imo.I will never use all the features it poses...But no doubt,I'll end up selling it within weeks,due to this reason.

My K700 has also developed a problem when pressing joystick right, it sometimes takes 3 presses before it registers. If I'm wearing jeans I keep it in my back pocket though, so I think I might have sat on it and damaged the joystick. I'm gonna deliberately sit on it now until the joystick's propery buggered, as it's still under warranty

EDIT: I didn't mean buggered in THAT sense
