Nokia, The Curve is retailing it at RM1,399.00.

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

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 ?

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

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.

E51 users !

Let's share essential apps to make this neat little device even better.

Currently I have/or have tried/want to know:

1. Google Maps
2. Yahoo Go! (will not install, sent an e-mail to Yahoo tech support, they said to check back often as they add new phones regularly)
3. Any freeware notepad app better than the included one ? With the default notepad app, I can't seem to move down a line. Need to press space many times for it to go down to the next line.
4. Any recommended media players ? Haven't played around with audio/video playback yet, but I think for my simple needs, the inc Realplayer should be "ok".
5. Any app to display the battery in percentages ?

Will list/request more as i play around.

p/s: How long does the battery last typically for you ? I get about 3 days with normal wifi/calls usage.

Hei thx katopunk ! PhonetInfo works great. Neat little app.

Just transferred some stuff to the phone last night, Painfully slow ! (800KB/s to phone mem, a Toshiba 1GB mSD) Is it meant to be this slow ? I just used the data transfer mode, although later I used Nokia PC Site, about the same oso. ANything I'm doing wrong ? Also seems to take a lot of power, from almost full (2 bars missing) to 2 bars left !.

1. The E51 performance is pretty zippy thanks to it's speedy 369Mhz CPU.
2. 3-4 days for me. A bit of wifi, mp3s, average sms & calls.
3. Haven't timed it yet, but I'd say around that.
4. Should be able to display most websites with no issues (LY.net works fine )

Mydelsol,

The pre-installed Office app can only view documents. You need to upgrade/buy to edit.

To lock: Menu then *

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.

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....

Download Opera mini for a better surfing experience.

p/s: To the forummer asking about the Motorola S9 + E51 = yes it's in stereo. Sorry, lazy to check back again. hihihi.

Another 01 here. Sure boh (made in Finland that is) ?

On Celcom, just shows the Number not in use message and disconnects the call. No hang ups.

Hey guys, I sometimes receive sms's or calls with the +6 suffix and these will not show up as a Contact/Name even though I've stored both versions of that number (the regular non +6 and +6 number) in that respective Contact. Any way around this ? Thanks.

Yup, exactly like that, though for me it's mostly for those with the +6 prefix ( lol) that won't appear as a Contact. Guess will just have to live with it then....
