Re: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Official Price Announced !!
I know that you have sent your phone back already for an update but still did you try any Java games or softwares on the 5800XM?
I want to know if the java games meant specifically for 240x320 screens can be played on it or not? Does the app occupy a portion of the screen and the rest part occupied by a D-pad? Is there any compatibility mode on the phone. The All About Symbian review mentioned that there would be a compatibility mode but later reported that this feature has been removed in the final firmware.

Nokia will own the touch screen market if they adopt a proper pricing and proper price down strategy.......

Does the wavetel mobile website have an "Add to cart" option. If available, click on it and in the resulting page view the price and post it here. If it is 19.5k still then there is reason to cheer. But I think that the price they mentioned is without tax.
If the tax is 12.5% then the total price becomes Rs.21.9k, if the tax is 4% then the total price becomes Rs.20.28k.
Plz post the total price here.

Any nokia mid end/high end phone that initially costs above 20k is always buggy.. my n85 with its initial firmware was a bit unstable .. now with ver11 its rock solid with a tiny few bugs still there which will get rectified with future firmware update for sure. Dont worry, nokia is working on ver20 firmware for 5800 and it will improve the phone by leaps and bounds.
Though n82 was a quite an exception to this. Used it for 10 months. It was rock solid on every firmware i tried ..:hap2: now that's quite a rarity for nokia handset

Re: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Official Price Announced !!
Got the phone today , its a good phone , only thing that bothers me is the camera quality and the phone cover which is very awkward . are there there any accessories available for it at present like scratchguard / covers .

Re: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Official Price Announced !!
Yep, I am also looking for scratch guard and a good carrying case. scratch guard is an absolute must for any touch screen phone. The NPD fellow here told me that it would take some time to get them through them, However theres already the invisiSHIELD and some others available in US ranging from $7.99~$24.99

Re: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Official Price Announced !!
had few more questions :
does the accelerometer work on turning on eitherside or just on one side
and how do u put the phone in this phone case, seems like its scratching the front screen
any specific way or just stuff it in , noticed a small hole in the phone cover , is this some sort of orientation guide .

Re: Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Official Price Announced !!
Is that a scratch guard?? From what i see, it's just a cover to protect the screen in packing.. It's got pattern all around and it also has the "Media bar" on it permanently... how will you watch full screen videos with it? I feel that thing is not meant for use along with the phone. You need to remove it along with the cover protecting the camera... The demo piece at NPD didnt have anything of that sort..
