I just got my N97 on the weekend, I did the software update straight away, took me 4 days to work out how to answer the thing and I couldnt see that covered in the manual, I just hope that they do more updates for it as I think it needs it, cant seem to get the quick office to work it just keeps freezing. not that I would use that app much but why have it on there if you can use it?
Overall I am pretty happy with it!!

Why would HTC and Android be listed as tags for this post?? Anyways N97 is a rip off, you get slightly better hardware (and it is slightly, the 4**MHz processor is a joke, the upcoming E72 has a 6**MHz processor and that doesn't even have to deal with the complex touch UI, and the battery is the same as the E71?? Shouldn't a top of the line Nserise with such a premium price innovate instead of just bringing re-heated leftovers, i mean the camera module is 2years old!!)for almost twice the initial price of the 5800 and no innovation. I love the Nserise, i have an N95 8gb and i remember when i first bought it 3years back, back then Nserise meant something now all that comes to mind is Oh how the mighty are fallen...

I'm sorry but this phone was pure garbage. Waste of my money and time. And already almost half the price on craigslist.

Unfortunately Nokia become a looser company because of: they are not creative enough, MOST of the NOKIA handset always comes with defective software or hardware since 2006 up till date and regards to all Nokia research lots of peoples says that Not right!!!!! Nokia make test for one mobile phone of every 1000, so do u think the factory staff are free to test every phone, that’s why NOKIA quality is terrible,
Samsung and LG is way better folks try them and you be impressed by the results

Will Nokia release a second version of this phone like they did for the N95 but with 256 ram? if they did I would buy it in an instant.
Also, can anyone confirm if the phone is compatible with a bluetooth mouse? (for tv web navigation)

Read on about the "best phone" :)
At the SyScan security conference being held in Singapore this week, Macintosh security expert Charlie Miller has outlined an SMS-based vulnerability in the Apple iPhone that could let attackers listen in on calls, access the GPS unit to locate the phone, execute arbitrary programs, and even let the phone participate in distributed denial-of-service (DDOS) attacks against other Internet sites via the Internet.

@beta release... comon man... atleast nokia do somwthing to fix the bugs without getting you returing to your retailer.. an't u aware of the new iphone HEATING UP issues...
HOW TO UPDATE THE FIRMWARE..
you will have to do it via PC... go to nokia.com, install the software updater from there. Launch it, and it will guide you further.
Not a very lenghty process.
the update firmware is good, smoother and quick than before... the touch effect has improved too..
