Ach, sorry I missed that as it was at the bottom - will have another look. Looking for something that I can easily slide the E90 in and out of rather than keep the E90 in it permanently, while I didn't like move of the Blackberry I did like its case.
Mine is an O2 one, running on Vodafone - I think the only branding left is the shutdown screensaver, once I get to grips with it I'll look at properly debranding it.
Pretty sure Voda is to blame on the phone not taking calls, seems to be a few issues at the moment...I've got voicemail switched off for out of reach now which means I get a text with details about any calls that the phone doesn't take which should help.
GPS is working fine, the error message is just badly written as it should say 'waiting for GPS' for a while rather than saying not available. I do like the film style zoom in on your current location, serves no useful purpose but does look cool

How come you E90 owners don't have any probs tis no fair 
I assume your issues are E65 specific, I had the N93 which I used for a good amount of time (pretty much the same phone at the core) and worked well.

The N93 was the first usable S60 device for me, the previous ones I'd used lasted a couple of months before I got sick of them and normally went back to an Ericsson. I have heard quite a few comments about E65 unreliability but it's difficult gauge actual reliability as you're going to hear more about faulty handsets without knowing the total number in use.

Even if it's only 02 i would still debrand but then i just believe it is better that way as the branding changes aren't always visible, what version software does it have? as 7.40 gave A-GPS which improved the lock times by all accounts. Personally i still use a external GPS Receiver as use Tom Tom and find it is much better than any inbuilt Receiver so far put i any device.
Also i would say the PDAir Horizontal case would fit your needs best.

Definitely agree with you on Tomtom, Sat nav up until now has been Tomtom5 with a BT GPS receiver and planning on getting Tomtom6for the E90 as there's no comparison between the BT receiver and internal one - the BT one gets a lock in around 40 seconds and holds it regardless of buildings or anything else. However it would be handy to have the internal GPS capacity for checking a map if I don't have the external with me so I'm relieved it is working...just takes its time!

I will have disagree on that E65 and N93 are the same, N93 internaly has the very same chipset as E90, the TI OMAP2420 332MHz chip, whereas the E65 has the older TI OMAP1710 235MHz chip but i think both E65 and N93 have the same RAM chip. The N93 would have been close to perfect if it had the 128mb ram chip, Demand Paging, and Os9.2 FP1.

@GUCCI.011
Actually IMHO just Demand paging and HSDPA would of satisfied my needs although i have now lost hope of Nokia releasing a real next gen in that format as really thought the N93i was a step backwards especially with that Razr style Keypad as the original N93 has one of the best and almost tactile keypads i have used, i could even type in Laptop mode fast.
I have to say no true N93 replacement the destruction of the E61 format for the E71 and Nokia are not making me a happy boy that's for sure. Thankfully the E90 will see me through for quite a while as my next devcie will definitely have an OMAP 3 Series chip or similar, other wise there really is no point upgrading for me. I'm really not sure if i want to go back to a touchscreen devcie again though even if i can appreciate that they have made huge improvement's in recent times and continue to.
But never say never who knows a 32gb 3G/HSDPA/HSUPA iPhone may just change my mind on that or Nokia's Touch UI or even an SE top spec UIQ device, although SE need to do much more than just announce a new device to win me back.
