from uncle BDL la... he's selling. good and trustworthy seller. I got mine from also.

Just to share, I had my first symbian phone, e51 last weekend at 1400 with 2GB card. Very impress with the performance. perhaps need time to play and get used to the symbian stuff.

Short battery life sometimes kina frustrated. I'm having normal voice call/sms, some wifi stuff, very less in camera/music .. 2bar batt at end of day.

other than this issue. i'm loving it...

after close to a month of owning a E51, experienced my first "hang"which lasted about 30seconds
but all ok now thank god...so loving it, fast for a symbian as compared to my N73 ME, so slow....

I got mine a couple of weeks ago. Loving it! To the haters, you have valid arguments, but for the likes of me, it's perfect. Small stuff, I use my E51, larger stuff, I'll fire up my laptop.

Anyway, anybody managed to get a screen protector for your E51? Mine's pretty natty, so gotta get it replaced. Novacell doesn't have it, found many on eBay, but it's pretty expensive, figured I can save a bit by buying locally.

ya novacell don't have it so hard to find -.-"

for screen protector, i've been using an e61 protector but cut the bottom edge a bit to make it fit... the visible screen up to just under the word E51 and the earpiece is covered... suits me fine so far...

I'm also looking for an external case/condom/etc for the E51. Something stylish la. ehe. Any recommendations ? (in PJ yah).

Also, any good stereo bluetooth sets you guys recommend ? tired of the wires already. something in ear, coz my ears are weird and the bundled headphones slip off easily.

Thanks in advance.

What do you guys think of EXiM screen protectors? They cost USD12.24 (with shipping) from eBay.

There are cheaper ones out there too. Shall we gather some folk for a bulk buy? I noticed a cheaper 10-in-1 pack going for AUD10.05 (with shipping). I doubt it will make much of a difference between the two, but I might be mistaken so opinions are welcome. Novacell sells their house brand ones for RM15, IIANM, so this 10-in-1 might be a little cheaper.

Eoma, IIANM, the E51 doesn't support A2DP, better to check it out further before plonking down cash for a stereo headset.

Eh, i tried it on my friend's motorola set and it worked. It's the set you get with the limited edition Jay Chou phone. That's what sparked my interest actually.

I paired the phone with the device, it entered headset mode iianm, then played a song via the default media player. Could have been in mono though (maybe) but there was audio from both sides. Hmmmmm.

edit: Eh it's supported wad....

Am using Itech Clip II, works for both my E51 and V3X, got bored with the standard issued crappy headset
as for the screen protector, my E51 came with it, the Nokia guy in Sg Wang gave FOC to my wife when she bought it

Just bought from Low Yat Nokia shop, RM1288, accept cc.

Before that I tried to ask around small store for AP set, they don't have, and they are selling ori set for RM1399.

wats the latest price for this phone, thinking to buy it since it suits my business use and also alot smaller than my 8 months old dopod c500

wow 1288 at Low Yat Nokia Shop... When do you bought it? I get it for 1388 at the same place...

Last Sunday.

Still playing with it. The Wireless web surfing is fast. Interesting if you try youbue, it will triggle realplayer with full screen.

You can get it here: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=280602&hl=MFOP.
It's Martin Fields Overlayplus Screen Screen Protector.
I've ordered 2 sets from him each for rm35.
Btw, mine is going to arrived on next week

hi guys,

just got this phone for RM1350 plus free 2 G Avaxx set...is it worth it? yeah you guys are rite...kinda hard to get silver colour....the seller said now avaxx only supply the black e51 only silver and rose are old stock.....dunno whether true or not....

Eh? Can YouTube ah? Right, I just tried it with the built-in browser. I came as far as RealPlayer launching. Then I got a "Disconnected. Try connecting again?" error message. Running it via Wifi on my home WLAN.

Ah, looking forward to your review on it. This is a little bit cheaper than the EXiM SPUC for the E51.

If it's any consolation, I got my Avaxx set from Hello Station for RM1,388, no microSDHC included. If I may promote, I got my 4 GB microSDHC from George for a very good price. You can find his thread on LYN here:

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/514973

Ah, just checked, prices just went up, but he told me that his prices fluctuates according to market rates, so one might hang back and wait for a while for the prices to drop if it isn't really urgent.

Added on March 12, 2008, 7:13 pmAh, you know what? I tried Googling for the link where I supposedly read about the E51's lack of A2DP support but for the life of me I can't get it, so please discount my views.

So, did you notice if the audio was stereo?

Added on March 12, 2008, 7:21 pmHave you guys seen this video? After seeing the torture they put it through with the screen emerging relatively unscathed, I'm tempted to plonk down some money for this eBay item.
