it's all personal preference relly. I did have an iphone but didn't like it too much. Too many restrictions on the phone and can't even take the battery out. Then got a 5800 now i have an n97 and it does everything i could possibly ask for and freedom to do what i like with it, so in my opinion it's a great phone.

Well my N97 comes tomorrow.

Ordered it last week, then got told Vodafone rejected me, possibly because of credit rating.

Funny, I have had loans, I now have car finance and 2 credit cards, none of which have had any issues gaining, along with all my other contract phones.

Vodafone called me yestredya to ask if I was happy with my phone... What phone? You rejected me! Turns out they accepted me, and I can take up to 3 contracts out with them my credits that good.

So they are now sending me my phone tomorrow.

Got my N97. Impressed with it really, the touch screen is better than I expected!

Couple of things really.

My "Hotmail" email only seems to Sync when I connect to it. As soon as I close it down it says "You will now be disconected" and it doesnt sync untill I load it back up again and physically "connect"? Is this normal?
My work emails sync fine with no problems, there on the Exchange mail.

Its not using 3g connection, I can only get online via Wifi, if I;m not connected to a wifi, i try go to a webpage or just "Vodafone my web" and it comes up with HTTP Error 403: The service you requested is restricted" bla bla.
This may be something I need to speak to Vodafone about though!

Also, any reccomended websites for help.support/downloadable content?
Any reccomended applications to install?
