    I just bought this phone like 3 days. But It works very well. Special the camera and the GPS. I bought that from buy.com and I receive from them right one day.. just them better than unknow seller from ebay.
    N78 has the a lot of good thing. music, game, graphic. It seems cheap right,

        Rajgoaj, 18 Oct 2008I fail to understand the GPS operation. I believe connection to GPS satellite is free of cost... morewhen you open the nokia maps
        see the satellite icon with 3 slots on lower right of the screen
        if 3 slots are green then you're connected with GPS satellite and can use the features using it
        if 3 slots are bipping in yellow
        then you're phone is seeking for the GPS satellite

        if you're not connected
        you can still use the maps completely by WiFi,GPRS,EDGE,UMTS or HSDPA

        I used the nokia maps
        and it shows detail address even a city like semarang

                  Look dude

                  1. 3.2mega pixel camera is really really great in good light condition, in the might it wouldn't be so precise! Its flash is good. And there is something about this camera u won't found in n82 cam AUTO EXPOSURE!
                  It is not the best in shooting videos, 15 frame per second make the movie look bad and the phone it self cannot play 3gp well. so for shooting pictures it is very good and for videos not so bad.

                  2. its keypad is very eazy to use. I have written this post by the phone. U will get use to it very quickly.

                  3. I don't know why it cannot play 3gp correctly at this time but i ensure u that it is a firmware prob.

                  4. Sound quality is very good either through speakers or headphone
                  it is not so loud but it do the job!

                  6. the n-gage support for it is not available yet
                  but i tried it with n-gage 1.0 and i found asphalt and space impact very good in graphics and sound and playing with the naviwheel

                  6. It has a battery better than n82 it last for 3~4 days

                  7. it has a shaky battery cover. This is real. But i have stick a piece of paper. And it does the job!

                  8. I don't know if u should by this phone or another
                  if i were u i would wait til they release a new firmware to improve its preformance and its bugs or wait for n79 but if u want one now go for n82.
                  I hope that i have helped u.

                    I fail to understand the GPS operation. I believe connection to GPS satellite is free of cost. Also I heard that it is possible to find the exact location to the height of 13m MSL.

                    What does this actually show when you open GPS application that comes with this phone? Can somebody help me out in this?

                                  Haylo everybody been using this phone for over a month now i actually bought it on the third day of its release trust me its a great phone hasn given me a single problem till date and the navi wheel is ultra cool
                                  the latest firmware is version 12.46 i guess
                                  i updated mine a week ago but be careful make sure you have the right region selected while updating otherwise your firmware gets destroyed and your phone gets hung
