Sorry bro, just want to clear understanding about this, until now not 100% clear. Too many marketing tactic instead of stating clearly. Anyway, I think better check with Digi sales person.

Sure ma, DiGi wo... "I will follow you~"

AP lor...

Another intepretation: Read from RIGHT to LEFT.

Interesting....

I found some types of memory explanation for Symbian OS in Nokia wiki, but it doesn't mentioned about Internal Mass Storage, which is the 8GB, 16GB, etc that we usually see.

The Phone Memory (C:) is referred to as Internal Flash Disk, which is a Flash Memory. I check N97 wiki, it mentioned the N97 have 256MB NAND Memory (with usable approx 70MB++), while the N97 Mini have 512MB NAND Memory (with usable approx 270MB++).

The ROM is the Z: drive, which as the definition, it's READ ONLY; different from C: drive, which is writable.

I tried a simple google on NAND Memory and it returns about 2 types of Flash Memory, NAND and NOR; Though, it was mentioned in the article that NOR flash is faster and more expensive and often used in mobile phones?

Please help to correct if there's any wrong information. Thanks.

Random Access Memory (RAM)

RAM is the volatile execution and data memory used by running programs. Applications vary in how much RAM they use, and this also depends on what the application is doing at the time. For example, a browser application loading a web page needs to allocate more RAM for the web page data as it’s loaded. Also, the more RAM space you have, the more programs you can run on your smartphone at once. Typically, mobile phones have between 7 and 30MB of RAM available for applications to use.

Read Only Memory (ROM)

The ROM is where the Symbian OS software itself resides. It includes all the startup code to boot the device, as well as all device drivers and other hardware-specific code. This area cannot be written to by a user, although some of it can be seen by the file system as drive z:. Viewing the z: drive will show all the built-in applications of the OS, as well as the system DLLs, device drivers and system configuration files. For added efficiency, code in ROM is executed in place – i.e. it is not loaded into RAM before executing. Typically a phone has between 16 and 32MB of ROM.

Internal Flash Disk

The internal flash acts like a disk drive and allows for reading and writing files to it via the Symbian OS file system. The file system is fully featured and supports a hierarchical directory structure, with very similar features to those you would find on high-end operating systems. The internal flash drive is represented as the c: drive to the file system. This memory contains user-loaded applications, as well as data such as documents, pictures, video, bookmarks, calendar entries, etc.

The size of the internal flash disk varies with the phone, but it can be quite generous. For example, the Nokia 9500 has 80MB of internal flash space available to the user. On many phones, however, available internal user space is significantly less. The Nokia 6600, for example, has 6MB of flash space available to the user.

Removable memory cards

Memory cards act as removable disk drives and allow you to expand the storage provided internally. You can also read from and write to a memory card just as to the internal disk – including operations such as saving user data, and even installing applications. This card is treated as another disk volume by the file system and is represented by a drive letter such as d: or e: (this varies between phones). The memory card formats (MMC and SD are examples) and available sizes vary by phone. Memory card sizes can vary from 16MB (or even less) to 1GB.

BBXiong,

No I'm not talking about NAND Ram.

The Phone Memory (C: Drive) is a Flash Memory right? I'm not saying it' a RAM, but a memory for storage like Flash Disk.

When I google Flash Memory, I got information about 2 different types of Flash Memory which is NAND Memory and NOR Memory.
Is this correct?

Alright, thanks!

True, the term is not important for end users or normal consumers, most important is not to confused/mistaken with RAM and Phone Memory (Flash Memory), which I am confused/mistaken for... like so long... LoL.

Need to differentiate and see/remember the error message clearly, between "Out of Memory, close some application" VS "Memory Full, please delete some files, etc". Thanks to that I confused myself.

UK Set is still original. Depend who bring in, the warranty is by that person, unless you go back the the country the phone is bought from.
Malaysia set is AUTHORISED set, which means set meant to be sold in Malaysia, bring in by Nokia Authorised Distributor, such as Zitron. This AUTHORISED set will have warranty by Nokia Malaysia.

NON Original = FAKE; e.g. NokLa N8, or whatever immitation unit of N8.
This you need to worry like... A LOT.

Great way to make quick cash or quick sales for an app?
Imagine how many people actually believe and go and buy it to try, even some curious might buy it to try.

Then I think you need to hide everytime you saw iPhone user.

Why need to jailbreak? Only iPhone is in jail and need to break out of jail for users who want freedom or more freedom.

Others are not in jail, but in some other place
They use other term, more technical term
