@jesal.... Congrats buddy! How much did it cost you? I need we need a thread specific to N82 going by the number of people going for this phone. By the way upgrade the phone to 20.X.62 if it doesnt come upgraded already.... it makes an already great phone even better.

Congrats jesal as ET asked how much for the Black version ?

There is a procedure for signing applications with opensigned @ www.symbiansigned.com. The signed file is restricted to your IMEI only.

I would suggest get the following apps also :

1. Shozu - Online image sharing includes facebook

2. ShakeSMS - Shake the phone to read sms, shake it back to exit and lock the phone.

3. X-plore - File manager

4. emtube - Youtube

5. jbaktaskman - Task manager

6. OctroTalk - IM

7. RockNScroll - Accelerometer application

8. Coreplayer - For videos

I am going to rest my faithful E50 after more than 18 months. The phone has served me well except for heating and a few hung ups. I am considering the following devices in the order mentioned:

1. Nokia E51:
Logical upgrade from E50, battery life, WiFi, slim looks, Radio, tough build (my E50 crashed down about 25 feet last year is still working perfectly till now)

2. Nokia E61i:
Very fasy software, excellant screen, slim looks, decent build, Qwerty keypad, WiFi, Sadly no radio, stereo headset, low memory, trackball navigation

3. Blackberry curve 8300:
Qwerty keypad, trackball navigation, blackberry email services, access office lotus notes and other applications, camera flash.

Please clarify if I can use the blackberry services on E51 and E61i. How different will it be from the blackberry device?

@mail4ajo: you can use Blackberry services on E51/E61i using Blackberry connect. I haven't used it though as I use mail for exchange instead.

Check this link BlackBerry - BlackBerry | Wireless Handheld Devices, Software & Services from Research In Motion (RIM)

Thanks for this. Also I dont see the Blackberry connect software for E51 listed anywhere. Its available for E50 and E61i though. How different is blackberry from mail for exchange platform?

When it comes to smartphones, I would never recommend Motorola. Go for Nokia E61i anyday. Its got all the features and looks that you could ever wish for, in a smartphone

Dude if you already got a Blackberry, then why bother with a 16k Nokia E61i, which would prove to be a menace in carrying around with your BB?

Instead, go for a decent 8-10K Nokia/SE basic phone. Nokia E50 at 8K is a very good VFM smartphone for its size. Or you could also look at E51 at 12k

the only reason for a BB is it is office provided and office does not support devices other than a BB device, reson for 2 cells , i want to keep personal and office seperate, my budget is at 12-15 k in this thread i read a lot about e50's going dead, what else is out there ? i've seen the LG metallic silver phone that looks nice and is abt 9k i cant remember the model number any feedback on that

Sorry man. I have always been a Nokia user since the last ~10 years. I briefly switched to a slider Samsung D 600 for a few months and gave it up due to its (non) ease of use.

Nokia E50 is an excellent phone for its price, despite a few issues. These would be sorted if you upgrade to the latest firmware. So is the Nokia E65. But I hear both are on their way out in the coming months. E51 has replced both of them very well.

If you are open to N Series Nokia, do check them out too.

I think the e51 would be a better choice . Especially now that they have sorted out the issues which were there on the e50.
