ive got the samsung pixon which uses the same processor as the jet and its a brilliant phone, the touch screen is near perfect and even with my sausage fingers the txting is easy, the processor is the fastest ever used in a mobile so i was told and it really is quick has loads of nice features, i looked at the n97 and its a bit of a bulky thing and has the slide up keyboard which i didnt like, depends what your used to i never got on with the n series phones.

it's is the orange software the put on it. Mines fine as a generic handset. Texting can be a little annoying as they've included the punctuation in the predictive text which in my opinion doesn't work. Everything else on the phone is fine though.

N97... Can be a bit slow... But with the latest firmware it sorts all the bugs. Love mine typing on it now.

Was looking at blackberrys... But they have a rubbish camera and i found nothing was where i wanted it to be.

I had an N95 which was a great phone, so expected a lot from N97.

Disappointed. A lot of the functions are a pain in the arse now IMO, and rarely use the keyboard.
