I will suggest everyone to try out this phone a few days before drawing a conclusion. Mine is rm-612, I never suffer any hanging issue so far (4 months old). It's a unit specific problem so stop bashing it.
I just bought a nokia c6 from Erode, TN. The phone worked great for a couple of hours and then hung several times.
I checked the forum and found that a new software update was released.
I patched the software and it did help. However, the phone's behaviour is erratic at times. It does hang, but only about 6-8 times a day as opposed to 20-30 times a day before the patch.
The reason why I'm posting this is the sheer co-incidence that the shop I bought it from was owned by a very decent person, but he had a very aggressive sales person who sold me this phone.
I remember the name on that gold badge very clearly. It was "Sudhakar"!
Draw your own conclusions but I feel Sudhakar is very passionate about his job and feels that this is a good product. I think we should salute him for that.
SOFTWERE update available for c60-00
v.20.2.041
hi guys my c6-00 is rm 612 is that a faulty lot handset is any1 aware of that ...please let me knw..
thanks
an awersome phone.
c6 just received a new firmware update. From what I heard it reduced the hanging problem (though I don't suffer from any hanging problem so far). It's now even snappier than before, the speed simply makes you forgot that it's holding a 434mhz processor! The screen orientation speed matches the 600mhz running SE symbian handset.
abhinav, 23 Nov 2010nokia c6 is better than x6.but i want to ask that is there any problem with slideN. Use it softly and it will last long.

it had a 'Oct' manufacture date... but still is like a dabba fone.. hangs all the time.
my advice... try your luck if you wish
i bought it last week,although it looked excellent n features like 5mp camera,touchscreen and qwerty keypad but it hangs n sometimes it becomes too slow and battery hardly lasts long for a day.

Looks like you guys might be correct about the hanging issue:
Laitos (nokia employee) has declared yesterday (22 Nov):
"...
As has been stated before, this SW release should reduce the amount of freezing at least somehow, but it won't solve the freezing problem entirely and that's the reason why PR2.01 will follow in two weeks.
...".
see for yourselves:
