Anonymous, 06 Sep 2008even i have the same problem with the slide mechanism what should i do ? should i give it in... morePersonally I will take the phones back until I am satisfied with the quality my money demands and Nokia's reputation promises. Certainly a company who is arguably the world's top mobile brand cannot expect their die hard supporters to be content with sub standard products?

Seems that from box to box, quality for each handset is not consistent! I play around with a N81 that belongs to a colleague and the slide mechanism is incredibly sturdy and solid. I would love to hear from everyone if their slide mechanisms are solid.

2.it should begin to play it's demo and then you can play the game in trial mode.did you have changed your nokia standard 2GB microSD?
3.I suggest you to just set it in internal memory.when you set it to external memory,sometimes it'll get hang or take a longer time to open 'new message'.there will be no prompt to delete some files if the internal memory has enough space (approximately min 2MB)

Reason is that on both phones, the slide mechanism was loose. When sliding the phone out there was a substantial wiggle on both phones they gave me. I would like to know if any of you other N81 owners have this problem.
Secondly a random question. I assume Nokia has many factories worldwide. Are the quality of the phones from right across the world the same or would their Finnish plant put out better quality?
Thanks for your time everybody :)

can anyone advise me with this.

The software version of my N81 which I bought yesterday is V 11.0.045.

1. Is this normaL? or is it much better to upgrade the software as what one of the user in this bulletin is saying. thanks?

2. Why is it that the demo games like the space impact, fifa 07 and asphalt are only in the select options.. because when u try to press the select button..it cant be open? sorry for this question,, Im just curious about this fone.. thanks so much.

3. LAstly, what would be the advisable memory to use in the messaging? is it the memory card or the phone memory... because I have a past experienced with my N73 ME wherein the fone itself prompt a message that the memory is full and have to delete some files but how can u delete those files if ur did not save anything... thanks so much again.. God Bless..
