Have got bbc i-player installedd,,licenses downloaded and all goes good for 30 seconds and then it disconnects from wi-fi..I am even stood next to my router..My laptop sometimes disconnects but thats 4 walls and 35ft away..I am stumped and have you got you tube working yet???

This is what i have installed and use on my n85 and have not finished yet,,i do not use you-tube really but when get chance will see if i can get it to work
menu--downloads---applications,,
sports tracker
road sync 4
wireless keyboard
f-secure,,7 day trial
best full screen caller
windows live
easy wi-fi
fring
skyfire
nimbuzz
active notes,,seems like a trial option
Their plenty more to choose from but some are trials..
Now some more directly from n85 web browser,,
Gypsii--search gypsii in goole for direct link on fone
BBC-i-player --search on fone bbc-i-player series 60 for direct link
shozu--m.shozu.com on google on n85 (no www or http)
opera--mini.opera.com on n85 google search
Their is another browser i want to try called boltbrowser,,,boltbrowser.com
Plus i have usual from zedge.net and getjar.com such as calcium,,stopwatch..
www.allaboutsymbiam.com do a free application section altho some is needing an update..
Now i am struggling with an up to date divx player,,the one i use says out of date and to download the latest edition but cannot..My x innov8 plays these ok and should play on n85 with divx software can anyone help find a suitable divx player..I have also heard about smartmovie but cant get it to work it just out of date..
Theirs a lot going on in this smartfone and battery life to support it and a superb screen..enjoy it cause i am and have not even got all my folders set up properly yet for easy access..Dont forget make a folder called unused and shove all the apps you dont use in it BUT if you come to need them they are still on device ready to use and you will be glad you just didnt delete them..Enjoy

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970N85 would be a better option taking the price factor as well as the compactness...the N96 is tooo bulky..and both pretty much have the same features.

this is by far the best mobile I have ever owned.
It has everything except a keyboard. symbian outsmarts WM in all sense.

In smartfone and PDA essentials magazine this got top consumer mobile,,they could not reccomend n96 cause of poor construction,,battery,,defunct dvb-h and poor i-player playback plenty of shutter lag and so on..
The n85 is the flagship according to 3 mags and mobile review.com and so on but nokia pushed and advertised the expensive n96 hanset because of the dvb-h which is useless in uk and i-player is choppy and uk gadget show could not reccomend it..The n85 is the best but its been not heavily advertised and people are missing out on a decent upgrade because they have been pushed to accept the n96 as an upgrade..In fact if your upgrading from say the n70 or n73 i would advise you to even buy n95-1 or n958gb over n96 its that poor..I have not read one proposal on the n96 yet lots of praise and decent scoring for n85..

About the cam: Can you turn off the camera shutter sound? Is the cam fast and responsive after pressing the shutter key?
About the games: Is there a # limited of times you can try out the games?
Thanks for reply
