    Speaking to some colleagues today, Orange have withdrawn the N70 and are now not gonna release this properly until maybe April next year due to all the bugs, I feel sorry for folks who have bought these rotten eggs and will have to wait until new firmware is released by Nokia to fix this in Q1 next year.

    PS The 6680 is still full of bugs too, ie it will not work in a POP car kit !!

    I read something on an N-Gage forum that if your series 60 phone slow down significantly you should delete your call log and set it to keep the log records for 1 - 3 days.

    Apparently it is badly programmed on the N-Gage so that all the data is loaded on to RAM and this really chews upo the performance.

    I'm ordering my one from T-Mobile this afternoon after seeing my mates, looks class....

    Has anyone tried any N-Gage games on this yet?

    Picked my N70 up yesterday for a tenner from T-mobile.

    I think its the prettiest, best phone I have ever had. Music quality excellent and much louder than the 6230.

    Annoyingly Nokia have changed the charger connector to a smaller pin which makes it incompatable with other Nokia charger though they do supply an extra adapter. Will porbably lose it by next week

    Would advise anyone to get this phone.
