The problem is more like it is Symbian S60 based and Samsung do not have its own S60-baded touch interface unlike Nokia who recently developed one for its own products. The FP2 variant on INNOV8 is too cramped to be used as a touch phone.

Do you have Garmin Mobile XT installed?

Not sure if you have implemented the 'Battery tips' by deleting cardrunner.dll from the memory card file system. It is a well known issue that when you install Garmin Mobile XT v5.0 it will add a feature call presence awareness. This feature will be run at the background and occasionally update its coordinates. This feature uses battery power. Deleting the file to disable this feature will give you back approximately 20% of battery efficiency.

Hi, just want to point you to a possible solution to the Garmin v5 causing battery longevity problems. It is widely known in the forums that Garmin v5 has additional services running in the background even though the program is not started. The service in question is CardRunner.dll which resides in the RAM. Its function is a location aware service. It attempts to give your contacts location awareness if they are also using Garmin v5. Deleting this file will solve your problem.

To further improve battery longevity, you will have to shut down a service every time Garmin v5 is closed after usage. I suggest you go to Nokia 5800 owner's thread 1st sticky page for more information. Here's a snip of the discussion:

There's still choices like Mapking. Maybe you can try a ripped-version of the Nokia Map Loader. I believe we have many GPS navigational applications written on S60. You last resort is the J2ME version of GPS applications like TrekBuddy. But only last resort.

Not so fast lor... maybe when Omnia HD is released. RM2500 is quite low already considering Samsung don't move their price much. Don't forget the INNOV8 8GB first sold for RM2899.
