I've got this phone. It's simply awesome... What's not so nice, is that I've had it for 3 months, then it started to go crazy... Software Issues. I'm still waiting for the phone from Repairs. Ha, ha.

    I had a nokia n70 and 3600. In n70 java 3d games or app like opera mini 5 dosen't run smoothly and require a lot time to load but in 3600 it runs better and load much faster. My question is does n79 can play 3d java games smoothly and load quickly?

                    i am using n79 for 4 months now, its an average phone, it actually satisfy my mobile need indeed of playing music, browsing the internet but one thing that i didnt like bout this phone is when i put the phone lock on i noticed that the light turns off after 5-10sec and it iritates me and eventho i already turn off the phone lock still does the same so what i did i resetted the phone and it went ok.. once in a while it hang, but not too often. just need to powercycle the phone to get back up and running..
