By the way if any of you use msn messenger on your mobiles id double check exactly whats free and what isnt, i found out on "3" that its free to use(as in you could sit on it all day for free) but you can send 10thousand messages per month.
Nobody would probably send that many messages over msn in a month on your mobile but just thought id warn some of you

N95

No problems with software or speed, updated to latest FW 12.03 (biggest improvement is something called agprs or summit, apparently uses normal phone signals as well as sattelites to aid in navigation)

Tomtom mobile 6.1 installed (external bluetooth aerial as Nokia wont release the codes to allow other progs to use the built in gps aerial, maybe summit to do with wanting to charge for using theres )

Plus loads of games and applications

All running sweet as a nut

Downsides

Battery life have managed to flatten a battery in an hour and a half

Oh and the camera, 5 mega pixels my arse, maybe it is but why do they have to compress the image and also fuck about with it before it saves , my old 800i was much better camera

Got an N95 too, but that's on ebay at the moment as it is over-hyped and annoying.

N73 on 3 until tomorrow when my contract is up

Finally can get rid of this piece of shit phone!!!! Absolute shite never used anything so slow

Looked at upgrade options with 3 and all their handsets are either a) shit b) old or c) old and shit

Only phones with decent camera are K800i and N73 (which have been out for over a year FFS!!)

N95 comes out soon but i'll be fucked if i get another N series phone again.

Moving to O2, want a Sammy U600

K800i is a superb phone and wasnt sure i would like the N73. But the N73 on this network is excellent and @ 17.50/month I cant fault it.

1000 texts
300 free mins
£5 of downloads/month (TV/ringtones/games etc)
Skype on the phone
MSN etc

Was spending £30/month on O2.

So a phone that crashes constantly is something you put up with?

Try taking two pictures one after another, and see if it even loads the camera viewfinder after saving the first pic to the memory. Usually need to reboot is as the screen goes blank and wont even go back to main screen

July the 15th is here and i can phone up and give my notice WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO and it's also my birthday too, good birthday present if you ask me, can get rid of this heap!
