I still dont understand why this phone is very pricy...

agree

not online reseller.
a hp shop in leisure mall cheras.

You better check the phone properly... some seller sometimes sell ap set as ori set with very cheap price...

im considering this phone...any1 can tell me the photo quality between n85 and n82? im using n82...but im addicted to n85 slide mechanism and 2.6'' OLED screem. and n85 price is quite affordable for me..(trade in my n82 ofcoz )

I think what u r referring to is the Nokia Maps software which comes with the N85 with 90-days free voice navigation after which, u've gotta pay for the full software. GPS receiving is free and fully unlocked.

Yes, I am ditching the Nokia Maps and using Garmin XT instead with map from malsingmaps, latest is Sept 08 map.

it seem like the hongkong version doesn't have FM Transmitter. hopefully our seller here not bring in any n85 from hongkong...
better check 1st before buy...

many thanks to @yupio for telling me this...

Do we really need the FM transmitter?

its up to u actually.
if like to store many2 songs inside ur phone, perhaps u wanna use it in ur car.

but fm transmitter also around 1m only wad

GPS need to pay or not one?
I can tell its damn accurate. Tried it when I was back in my in law house and play play and wrongly select my position. To my surprise, it was correct answer. Hahaha...

Mine works without the internet access.. because i load maps offline to the phone using nokia map loader..

ok, tested transferring media via PC suite (and bluetooth). no reset needed for Music Player to work properly.

how far do you need to put your phone away from the radio for it to receive the transmission anyway? just leave it on the radio will do the job...

and i don't think your distance of yourself with the radio receiver on your car is way further than 1m... it works perfectly with playing music & videos

no need to pay, however, you must make sure your GPS settings is not NETWORK-BASED, you must turn it off manually in your phone settings, otherwise, each time u turn on your GPS, your GPRS/3G connection is on also to assist your phone in getting more accurate positioning from your telco, which could cost you a bomb if you are on the move (except if you have unlimited data package subscribed for your phone)

to do this :-> Menu > Tools > Settings > General > Positioning > Positioning Methods > tick off Network based

Oh, I thought I need to tick off Assisted GPS instead of Network Based. Anyway, what's the difference between Assisted GPS and Network Based? Aren't they the same?? Confused!!

Thanks very much...
No wonder that day so fast lock position...
After off liao, takes longer to lock position...

but i think sometimes we have no choice. i mean, the whole idea of having AGPS is to have quick lock so we move out quicker right?

It depends on your situation some people does not need accurate position immediately some does.. so at least on nokia phoes you have these options..

Added on November 18, 2008, 3:05 pmIMHO ..nokias transmitter is weak..thats on my N78 anyways.. you have to be really near the receiver or radio to transmit the signal better.. i think this has something to do with battery efficiency..

also...it depends on money...

put double sided tape at the back...then "tampal" the phone at the radio...

Any one can recommend shops in PJ or Sunway for Original Nokia phone?
