It looks pretty and all, but I don't think I could stand typing on those recessed keys at the bottom that seem to have an edge. Plus the Clear and very often used Menu key (or whatever it's called; used to go to the main menu, standby screen or running applications) and too small and flush with the keys around them. Nice, just not practical.
Now, my guess as to why this is not an Nseries device is twofold. One, because, even though it's still expensive, it's cheaper than any Nseries device out there, from what I remember. Two, because you already have a candybar in the series.
It's pretty clear why this is not in N series. First this is missing something that evert N series phones need to have, WiFi and screen 2.2inch that currently has to be 2.4 or more. So they sell this cheaper than many other phones with this feature set (if there's any phone with this price and has AGPS, Tv out, 5mp, Xenon and so on)and this is just the normal first month after the price goes rapidly down like always with these Nokia's. It looks much more of normal phone than N series devices. Not really liking the N series design currently so i dunno if that's bad or a good thing ;) Why they just can't make phone with E series design, build quality and N series feature set? =((
“Microsoft's not promising the world with Windows Mobile 6.5, nor are they delivering it -- it's very much a stopgap, complete with duct tape, bubble gum, and Bondo.”
