I thought the font on the texts was about right..
btw im sure you can adjust the font size in settings 
you also have a Voice aid too and it reads your texts out 
theres 2 voices I think martin and ellen!
you can also download more if you connect to Nokia 
Marc whats the main difference btw your E90 to my N95-2 then?

The main differences (I believe) between the N95 and E90 are that the latter has the qwerty keyboard, much larger internal screen and larger battery. The E90 has no significant memory onboard (against the 8GB of the N95-2), no headphone socket (2.5mm instead of 3.5mm), no stereo speakers and a lower resolution camera (3.2MP rather than 5MP)

and Nokia price that up at £600ish..
it should be abit cheaper cos it lags all that..
I know it's a biz phone but it's abit overpriced for what it does innit

Not entirely sure if you're joking or not - none of the features the E90 lacks are particularly expensive, a headphone socket is pennies, the different in cameras costs is low and even the 8GB memory is inexpensive these days with the low flash prices. The difference in RRPs actually makes the N95-8GB look rather expensive, bear in mind not only does the E90 have a similar 320x240 screen but it has a large high resolution internal screen which on its own cost quite a bit of money, it's just behind the standard resolution 800x480 used for UMPCs.
Additionally I would say the E90 has a higher quality build with the double hinged design.
Admittedly the N95 will come down in price relatively quickly because a lot of people buy them but that's not really a valid point as the E90 is a more specialist device.

I don't really think now ive got the phone that it's worth £500,
anyone who would pay that for it would be a idiot if you ask me.
£200 what I paid should be the price for it anyway,
Nokia would sell more at that price anyway!
it prob make the contracts better if they did as they would be cheaper for us 
E90 is a nice device,
ive never seen one on display maybe it's too good for that who knows,
it is way overpriced though aswell.
3.2 camera should get out some nice pics out of it,
and having 2 screens and that good Keypad well
is it a heavy phone

Well, reality sucks at times I'm afraid.
I didn't pay full price for the E90 either but you can't compare two phones based on a pricing error for one and the full price of the other.

@Miss UK
You seem to feel no phone should be more than £200 which is just not realistic just look at other smart phone prices TyTN 2 @£480 approx, W960 @£400+ very few smart phones are just £200 if any.
@johnmcl7
I don't know about your E90 but mine definitely has stereo speakers and excellent they are to when watching Movies and TV Shows. Although i feel the same that the flagship E90 should of had a 3.5mm jack and also the same Muisc Player as in the top N series devices. As an E series business device this is why it doesn't, it is also missing the TV out feature as well and demand paging and Flash Lite 3 although the last 2 may come in the next firmware release with any luck.

Hi gabbyevs
If you go to settings, then General, then personalisation, then display second one down should be Font Size.
@Dicky
Well that's not good especially as it only looked like the connection to the screen was loose, anyway you can speak to them to find out what's taking so long. Kick up a fuss who knows you may get new replacement if you complain enough.
