I've had this phone for 3 days, set the camera to take the optimum photo, i.e 5m pixel, iso auto, superfine etc, when the photo is taken for a split second looks fine then when it stores goes slightly blurry. i've bought a 4GB mass storage device so theres plenty of room to save the pic. Is this happening to anyone else? Have i got a setting wrong? Any advice would be greatful, thanks.

Got this phone last week and very happy. Takes a little while to get used to it but once you do it is very, very nice! Quality build and I find that texting is atually faster than my old phone.

Having big hands i thought this phone would not suit my thick thumbs but texting is a breeze, in fact. Pretty much everything is good about the phone. The feedback, good battery life, the browser works well and even with 3g the phone does not suffer from bad reception. I'd recommend it to anyone
