I've waited untill i updated the firmware today as felt that was the right and fair thing to do especially as i got off to false a start. This was entirely due to the Ovi Suite 1.1 included in the box i wont dwell on this to much other than to say it took 2hr 25 mins to download and install the 9 parts i had selected and i wasn't happy or impressed to say the least. It actually got much worse when i actually tried to use it for anything other than syncing Outlook Contacts and Calendar it just didn't work. Anyway enough of that my simple advice is DO NOT USE Ovi Suite 1.1 if you value your sanity at all. Instead i went to the Nokia support site and downloaded Nokia PC Suite 7.1 which installed perfectly and works perfectly as you would expect. Now onto the N97 well i have to say it comes in a much smaller box then previous phones have...

From the related blog post:Finally, Ovi Contacts support for Touch It has taken so very long time for us to enable support for S60 5th Edition products that it is unfair to anybody with the beautiful 5800 XpressMusic in their pocket. Now, as the second touch device, N97 is available in some parts of the world, we're finally able to make the Ovi Contacts available for these products. The app contains the same features, as the 3rd Edition variants, but now obviously with Touch support. In N97, however, there is something interesting to tell about. That is, ability to integrate your instant messaging friends with the contact cards in your traditional contact list. By doing this, you can see the presence status of your friends in the main phonebook tab too. Here's how you can do it too: Select the contact you want to link from the Ovi Contacts tab Choose either create new or update existing (depending on if you have t...

Just received my N97 on Vodafone (with Vodafone branded firmware) and to be honest, it doesn't function very well, crashes all over the place, internet doesn't always connect, backlight doesn't work etc. etc. Tried the firmware update to v11.x, but - as always - Vodafone is behind the generic release schedule. Did some googling on changing the device's product code so I could effectively debrand the device and get the latest firmware (I've carried out this procedure with my previous two N95s successfully) and found some valid product codes on this website: http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/Nokia-N97-Debranding-Guide_W0QQugidZ10000000012152314 So, with product code changed, I ran the Nokia software updater and - hey presto - it downloaded me a generic firmware and successfully flashed it across. Happy days. Unfortunately when I turned my N97 b... Wed, 01 Jul 2009 13:27:08 +0200 1246447628 http://my-symbian.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=39875 Quote from the first post: ...

The bad news is that they still only take up half the screen, although I will continue to 'nag' Styletap to update their emulator to allow flexible screen size. And they look very old-fashioned, being basically Palm versions and not native S60. The good news is that having been originally written for the Palm, they actually suit the touch screen a lot better than the non-touch devices. I am running them on a N5800 and they are surprisingly usable. (Note that Styletap could not intercept the 'automatic' display of the virtual keyboard so have provided a separate icon instead) Any comments welcome. Al Richey...
