Battery life seems to be its only real flaw, unless you feel its bulky compared to others.
Two people I know who have them have complained of a small buzzing sound within it. This must be due to all the gadgetry inside it. Even my phone - N70 does it a bit.

Have just got one and it is pretty damn good. Got an accessory pack with a desk charger and second batttery and a car charger. This keeps it nicely charged.

Have T-mobile web and walk which is a must to get the use with out crippling your self financially. The inbuilt gps reciever is not the best, but I have a tiny bluetooth gps which works with it a treat and have just ordered Tomtom 6 to go on it. Also looking at view ranger for OS maps. It is currently connected to my hifi playing MP3's.

A good 2gb micro sd card is a must (now under 20 quid for an ultra). Apparently the 4gb are just about to hit the shelves too. I was reading today that you can convert a dvd into less than 800 mb which will play on it. The screen is very nice. Clear and crisp. 5mp camera is as good as my digicamera anyway, and I am a pants photograhper.

I had an O2 XDA exec before this which was a do all device, and this does it all just as well, apart from typing as it doesnt have a qwerty keyboard. Might look at a bt one.

If you press the phone to your ear you can hear a little buzz. Move it a cm away and it goes, so not really a biggy.

I hope it is not as slow as my N73.

I have had the N73 for the last 9 months and when I click 'send' on a standard SMS text it takes upwards of 30 seconds!

I am however looking at the N95 or 6300 for as a replacement

There is some nokia freeware which can speed up the n73, a mate did it on my phone and it really worked
