well, it's basically a stable phone with some minor issues. however, branded versions like my '3' e65 has tons of very annoying issues that i hope would get fixed with a firmware upgrade. you can see more of those problems on my e65 on '3' thread.
thing is, '3' provided an unlock code for free but still the firmware and certain hardware glitches make it a pain to use with other sim cards. so why bother with the unlocking in the first place. |

Can you get change the product code and flash it with unbranded firmware as i am sure that would resolve the issues you are having. Unfortunately it is well known that 3 really mess their devices up.
On a side note i am back to just using my E61 and absolutely loving it just waiting for it's true successor to come out. This is easily the best all round smart phone i have owned and used. Just today compared it to a Z8 for Video playback and the E61 owned it big time the Z8 wasn't even close and that's meant t be a Multimedia device what a piece of garbage it is.

Would the E61 have the same changes? I think the most forgotten E-series is the E-70..... |

i would, but then the cost of losing my warranty is a bit unjustified? i only got it on '3' cos' they have the black one. plus i don't really want to switch to generic as yet as i do sometimes use '3' services when i'm in australia. maybe i'd get a generic e65 for my other sim, or even the e61, which is looking more tempting by the moment. |

The E65 has me intrigued; Vodafone dot co dot nz has it on special for NZ$649 (down from NZ$999 RRP). I think that makes it the cheapest Wifi compatible phone officially available in NZ and stylie too, thus I've been looking at it closely as I expect the W960 price (when released) to stay at NZ$900+ for a long time.
I checked out a demo (fake) E65 in a shop and have to say I found the D-pad, surrounding buttons and keypad hideous! I have large fingers and use my thumbnail for key presses. What do you current users think of the buttons and of the UI?
ps: I'm an S60 virgin

it's a fairly good phone, if you're prepared to put up with some 'specific' issues which nokia has so far never resolved with a firmware update.
having used the phone for some time, i find the d-pad and keypad to be average at most. i don't have large fingers, but that doesn't stop me from double pressing most buttons at times. i'd say the error rate at presses to be around 20%. |
