Nokia.......
Can anyone explain why nokia feel, that its a good idea, that if whilst listeing to music via your nokia phone, and your headphones come out of the socket, that it should then default to playing the music via your tinny speakers. On the train in this morning i was listening to some rather old and hard hitting hip hop - which contained expletives every other word.

Whilst nodding off, my phone fell off my lap and the headphones fell out, leaving the whole packed carriage to hear someone asking them to Fuck tha police. I then scramble around to turn it off but the keys are locked and the application isnt at the front, so i have to take the battery out.

cunts.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I bloody hate that!

(50 words or more, I know, but I was laughing for a long time if that counts).

Also, an aNnoyance of the Ns is that when a text arrives, or even a delivery report, it pauses the music completely.

Other Nokia phones pause it briefly while the sound plays and restart it automatically. Why they made a newer model more retarded in this way, I'll never understand. (That's a lie; I understand perfectly that people will buy new phones all over again when they make one that works properly.)

Nevertheless, I'm happy to have gone back to my N70 and sold the K810i on Ebay.

I swear by Nokia's and have done for 10 years or so. They do have some annoying faults but all phones do, in my opinion Nokia piss all over other phones even with their few minor gliches.
I mean why the fuck would you want a Samsung(for example) phone?

Pile of wank. Admittedly I'm now on my 7th N95 in as many months, but who's counting. ;)

Get an N82. Does all the same stuff, but faster than an N95 and takes decent photos in the dark and you don't have to wait 10" before it manages to take it.

I can't quote because I'm on my phone.
But what is that all about?
When you ask people to get in a photo at a party and the poxy phone takes an age to take the pic.

It's embarassing I know. Seriously, get the N82. Actually, Maggers, remember you told me you came across a new one? A while ago? I'm launching it. :o)

Matt, that actually made me laugh out loud.

As for phones, I wish a company would release one having tested the software first.

I'll be switching back to Nokia. I never spend a lot on my phone being 'Pay and Ripped Off', but the Sony Ericsson J230i is so unusable for a basic phone it is unbelievable!

Just getting to a persons name to call them takes an age!
