  • @ Velocity: Of course, you can do all that. Google Maps has a special new edition for S60 5th Edition Sets. Check out here:-->

    Google Maps for Mobile, new version out and works in S60 5th Edition too | S60 Blogs (Clean Link, no piracy here)

    If these are your needs, then there is no other alternative to 5800 Xpressmusic... Although, be informed that Camera is fine for day time only. Indoors/ Night shots would be quite messed up, when you see them on PC.

    niks_devil666: I couldn't get you. In this post, you need a "phone". In the link, you need a "Standalone Device" ... So, What is your need actually?

    I can tell you that if you purchase a separate Bluetooth GPS, you can use it to tag favourite locations on your phone, provided it has Google Maps.

      and by the way, A GPS is Assisted GPS (not "advanced" GPS). Moreover, it uses network and internet to determine the position more accurately.
      The 2-5 minutes work is reduced to 30 secs or so ...
      as i said ,i had w800i and k750i

      so actually i have leftover accessories like external speakers ,chargers,datacables,pouches and all....................

      hence looking in se so that these atleast can be utilised

        My priority is a standalone device but want to keep phone as an option if the price is right.

              I can give you a JAR application that makes it easy to Logon to GMail/ Sify ... Sify also has Gmail type setup now.

              @samarth.....heard from someone that the 5800 has got some problem in the earphone jack...is it true???
              NO, It was the Ear-piece... The problem was very low volume during a call, after some months of usage. It was caused as the Earpiece slided down the construction with usage... This was when Nokia was boasting 1 Million Sales of 5800, sometime last year...

              Now, this problem is solved! Earpiece is sturdy/ immovable now ... BUT, Do check the manufacturing date of the set before purchasing, it should be a recent one. A 2009 date will do!

              I'll reply to others later ... I'm busy with the Illegal Karizma Orkut images issue.

                      • what bout Nokia 5530 XpressMusic it's relatively new.. any reviews?? cost??
                        Those people who tell you not to take chances
                        They are all missing on what life is about
                        You only live once so take hold of the chance

                        • Please ignore if already posted ...

                          Some of the best sites to read reviews about smartphones - especially symbian and nokia phones are :

                          All About Symbian - News, Reviews, and Software for Symbian, Series 60 (S60) and UIQ phones

                          The Symbian Blog

                          All three of them give a near-perfect perspective of almost any phone you might be considering as your next buy.

                              Awesome phone..It also has an accelerometer.The interface is great and the phone is actually fast while operating though it doesnt support multitasking.Still has a very good music player.Decent 3.2 mpx camera takes good pics in well lighted conditions.All in all a great buy at that price and nothing in the market is remotely similar to it in that band!!(barring the LG cookie).
