Oh noes! ANy idea when they'll have the chrome/silver version ?

1. It's free. Just get the password from the counter.
2. It's up to individual preference. I prefer my phones to be in its original state, ie, without any wrappings / crystal casing.
3. Definitely the chrome / silver version. I've seen the Black in real life, held it, but still prefer the chrome silver version.

No idea. Even the staff there couldn't give me an answer on this.

if only the phone has 3g/video call..
shame that nokia doesn't want to include these basic feature for this current era

this mostly for businesses purpose so dun hope too much.

hi everyone,

i'm a long time "lurker", this is my first post after some months of silence really like this phone. someone said earlier it's available at Nokia The Curve? Gonna check it out there.

But so far after looking at the pics at various review sites... I think this is the next nokia phone i'm gonna buy. I really love the whole "functionality over bling-bling" philosophy.

The only thing that's making me hesitate right now is whether it wil work with Ubuntu or any other GNU/Linux.

the side button are so hard to press and the camera shutter sound can't be turned off -.-" any idea how to turn it off ?

the good thing i like is the mini usb and wifi =D and it's not slide becoz slide phone when u have problem wit the screen to change the ribbon may cost u 100? LOL

hi all owners, you all have a black version? i have heard someone got the black paint peeled off after couple weeks of ownership with care. so far any such problem?

can you charge using mini usb port with the cable provided? i mean charge using laptop/pc

So, finally got my answer after some hard knocks..and I wish to share it with u all...

so, if u still have a programs/ files / data inside ur nokia e51 which u cannot remove even u set to factory setting...

goto to nokia website and download the firmware of this phone into ur PC/notebook...then plug in ur usb cable..

install the new firmware..

OH b4 that, pls backup all ur important data first!

It will takes about 15 to 20 minutes to be fully installed...so make sure ur phone is fully charged and ur notebook is on AC power...Do not pull out ur USB cable even the display show it is disconnected..

Wait till it shows installation is completed..then u may pull out.

Wah La ! now u have a phone as u just brought it...

now, u hv to restore back ur data back to the phone..

but I noticed that i lost all my downloaded games ...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

yes, I got the black steel version too...so far so good..maybe i hv not drop it yet...

I went around KL looking for the Chrome version with no luck
All the shops had were the Black and Rose versions. Aieeeeeeeee. Anyone know where to get the Chrome one ?

I'm looking forward to get this one for my father. His phone really old and sot sot already...

How do you guys find the reliability of the speaker phone? Also keypad hard to press or something? How long the battery will last if average 1 hour talk per day?

Thanks in advance hope you guys can answer my question...

think they anticipated the chrome ver will be the best seller for e-series range la.. so release later. btw, you managed to locate rose ver? where you seen it cos so far i've seen only black.

KLCC, BB Plaza and Low Yat Nokia stores carry the Rose model. RM1399.

any other bad things on that phone?

thanks

i can't think of anything bad....only no touch screen, no flash, no 2nd camera for video call, i wish it has 3.2MP camera, now is only 2MP..that is fine. cannot off camera shutter sound..

but u got wlan, can serve net, do skype call, do chat, nokia map that shows most of the road name in klang valley, check mails, games, wheather forcast, world time, appt, radio, video camera, MP3, notes, can open word, excel, ppt,pdf files, can read ebook, realplayer, bluetooth, i think it got one of the fastest processor too.

Finally caved in and bought a Black Steel E51 (Avaxx) .

Don't know if I got ripped off, but I got it for RM1399 + 1 GB Toshiba mSD. Paid using CC (no surcharge).
Gonna transfer my contacts (any fast way to transfer from Windows Mobile to Symbian ?). Any help appreciated. Thanks.
