Wow, that's quite a result, JC! Really didn't imagine that happening, but I'm certainly glad for your part that it did.

 nah im not,just sux to know some scumbag out there has easily one of the best phones around and will probably sell it for drug money. It was a phone given to my Dad by the company he used to work for, he left them in June,so its realy not a big train smash, if it was the iPhone or BB he would've flipped.

Did anyone watch HANSIE in cinema? Busy watching it now, i would've walked out the cinema feeling ripped off  ive seen better acting on AfricaMagic.

Lol well thats VERY comforting JC its like im just about to board a plane then the captain says "I dont even know if this P.O.S of a plane will even stay in the air".
But ya ive read about the probs with the 5800's video bus, after taking pics or watching a vid its camera will just stop working, apparently the problem was fixed in newer units,and the Theme problem is a general S60v5 problem,some themes actualy kill the phone  this is sooo exciting lol, il see what my options are, maybe if im lucky i can get a N85 or N79 instead,but i was looking forward to owning a S60v5 phone and having a phone with a large screen both resolution wise and physicaly. If the 5800 does break though i still have the upgrade in July. Il try get the Black 5800,as the new ones have newer hardware apparently. Thanx a lot though bro,what i'll do is update the firmware if its not already V31.

Congrats GUCCI!
As for me, I have a 'headache' for the first time in my upgrade which is in 10 days. I don't have a phone that I want to upgrade to. I have decided not to touch any SE phone until I see an improved financial report next in the second quarter so, no SE for me until then. I've gone through one manufacturer 'dying' on me and had to struggle with batteries and accessories and ain't prepared for another one.
Now, as to my choices, it doesn't look good. No Nokia (yeah, I still hate S60) unless an E71-like maemo phone pops up which seems far fetched. No Samsung- I just don't like nor trust them just like their cousin LG. No touchscreen only phone or touchscreen with a slide out keypad and no traditional sliders.
Played with my cousin's BB bold 9700 yesterday, second time after trying it out at voadashop, and it's not bad but still find it too wide for my taste. Probably going to settle for the successor, 9750.
This sucks, I hate settling! Maybe I should just wait for MWC.

I would highly recommend the BB 8900 Curve if 3G/HSDPA is not a major loss to you Dups. Lol im totaly with you on SAMSUNG AND LG, a part of me just aint feeling them no matter how highly specd they are eg. The OmniaHD i8910, easily THE BEST Symbian S60 smartphone right now,but id rather get a Satio or even a N97 over it
Must say us "anti-touchscreen only peeps" havent been left with much choice the smartphone market has just been flooded with touchscreens. Notice theres not a single non-touch phone with an ARM A8-Cortex CPU, yet just 18months ago we had N95-8GB, and Samsung i8510 Innov8 ruling the market with the best hardware.
Dont you have another upgrade same time as me in July Dups? Remember you got the W890 same time i got the K850.

@GUCCI
Trendy moms you got, she digs the Iphone!
Yeah, I need everything from 3G to HS(D)PA and some more so that Curve is a no go.
You are right we seem screwed as the in thing now is a touchscreen only phone. Yes, I have another upgrade in June which is my main upgrade on Talk 500 while the January is a Weekend everyday.
The funny thing is after Android I love maemo and would snap an E71 touchscreen maemo phone from Nokia but as I remember well there are no chances of them bringing maemo to the E series which makes me really
pissed cause a lot of business people love the E series and are willing to spend money on them which means maemo could sell extremely well on the E series.
Come on Nokia, this is your chance to get Dups! to buy a Nokia for the first time in his life. Come get my money I dare you!

LMAO! nah wont happen, with my Mum im the only child,and i dont lose phones. My siblings are half bros and sis as my Dad remarried.
Dups
Lol, i dont think she knows what shes getting herself into but its my fault, told her to avoid the BB Storm.
Dont you want the Htc Hero or Magic? You might find that you like touchscreen only, ive had enough play with the 5800xm to confirm that il be happy with it despite the lack of keypad. Ya doesnt look like we'll have E71 type Maemo devices anytime soon,its a shame,guess NOKIA dont want Symbian and Maemo to clash.
