    True. Phones are very personal stuff, I might get her the Yari and the N97mini and then explain to her the reasons behind it, and if she doesn't like the model, we go and change it...I'm trying my best to avoid that tho. I'm supposed to know her taste! And I do know it, I just can't find it Will look around in stores as well, I think I've done enough internet research.

    As I said, I like the 5800 for the features and the keyboard-less-ness which makes it smaller, but it's old, I would prefer to go with the N97mini, but it is big, don't know if it can be used as a feminine phone.


    N97 mini is no bigger In the hand that a 5800. It's actuslly nicer to hold too due to its metalic components. The kryboard isn't worth the price increase over the 5800 though.


  3. Had mine 4-5 months now and love it to bits too. Best phone I've ever had by a long way. I'm sure I don't use half it's functions either...

    Nice...you know, I've always had this thing against Nokia...never liked their products, but the mini is starting to take me. I'll probably get her the mini, looks great, acts great, and it's not that big, it's actually a bit smaller than the 5800. As I said, I'm going to the store next week, so I'll be getting a closer look, but I think I already have the final answer:
    Sony Ericsson Yari (Great phone by the way, for anyone considering a feature-phone. It's got unique abilities)
    Nokia N97 Mini
  5. I just bought new headphones, Sennheiser HD 205, you gotta hear Pop album trough those



  6. Good to hear! Pop needs to be listened to with decent headphones Gives it a whole new dimension


  7. Yeah, just like AB. Insanely layered albums.
  8. HTC announced their new products for 2010 today at the MWC:

    An improved Sense UI, new features, including FriendStream, apparently an app that shows updates from Facebook, Twitter and Flickr all in one place. Another one is what they call Leap, you pinch the homescreen and it kinda zooms back and shows you all your homescreens so that you can jump to whichever you want:



    They've also improved the browser and mail client, they have added Flash 10.1 and also a newsreader app and widget.

    They have also introduced three new phones. HTC Legend (an improved Hero), HTC Desire (what they call superphone, equal to Nexus One I think, maybe better) and the HD Mini, an smaller version of the HD2:



    Press release here: http://www.htc.com/www/press.aspx?id=124748&lang=1033
    and here for HD Mini: http://www.htc.com/www/press.aspx?id=124750&lang=1033

    BTW, Gerard, they said that the new Sense features will be made available for the Hero as a free update
  9. i'm happy to wait for the update now rather than buying a new phone
  10. new unlocked 5800 in hand. Sadly the ebay guy doesnt know what unlocked means and I now have a Vodafone branded and simlocked phone. Lovely
  11. Though luck

    Are you taking any actions? I bought a 'new' battery for my N900 on ebay and it lasts only 3 hours I hope you can resolve the issues. Locked sucks and Branded even more.

    I should be entitled to a refund. I'll keep it if he covers the cost of unlocking the phone. The branding I can live with because a quick product change has that sorted
