think im goin for the 5800 on orange or voda

any issues with either of these network providers?

The 5800 is a great phone mrapoc, I'm certain you will love it. I am on o2, so I have no idea how the phone operates on either of those two networks.

As nathan has already pointed out, the latest firmware update has made a huge improvement to the general operation of the touch screen. It feels much more tactile, and some other more subtle changes have also been added which improve the phone immensely.

cool

its pretty cheap too, is the camera useable?

as far as updates go, do you just run a suite and it updates?

You could always just wait for an N97 tbh.

To update your phone just go to; http://www.nokia.co.uk/softwareupdate

EDIT: Here's a pic i took in dover the other month. It doesnt perform so well in the dark though.

that aint too shabby nathan!

i had a play on a 5800 tonight, really quite smooth with the touch! better than samsung and lg touch phones by far! not quite the iphone but feels just as fluid - and thats a non updated phone! hah

yeah its ok. you only get a trial of the sat nav though. You can use google maps and garmin have just released their XT version.
