Have 2 enquiries to N78 which hope to clarify. U wrote: "There is a new menu in FP2 called "events" where you can set custom sounds for things such as warning tones, charging your phone, low battery, battery full, etc. Best of all you can type out phrases your phone will say during these "events." I tried locating this in an N78 which I have here but can't seem to find it. Smile. And I'm just wondering if this phone has a built-in sip client like N82? I tried finding it but couldn't locate it too. Call nokia and some say there is 1 but some say there isn't. Hi Stefan,

As for your suggestion about maintaining stereo in landscape and portrait - it seems intuitive, but given the phone is rotated counter-clockwise for landscape mode (I believe), it would reverse the stereo with this configuration. @Whobee: I read somewhere that the speakers were asymmetrical for maximal stereo widening (not sure I believe it though).

Here's the most logical explanation I can think of: no matter what the screen orientation - landscape or portrait - you get a STEREO L-R sound :-) Not so awkward after all, is it?

I find that they are not as responsive and I hit the end key sometimes instead of the right softkey. I agree though with the keypad, gotten used to after a couple of days. I dig the transitions, but I agree with you on the nav-wheel, turned it off quick. How's your N78 on: 1. finding the GPS signal 2. Geotagging photos 3. FM Radio tuner/Music player 4. WiFi lock on I've had a few lock ups using these. I've taken a few pics and video with my demo N78: http://www.twango.com/xj911 Overall, I think the N78 is a great phone if you can get used to the keypad. The camera is awesome, the little extras like the 3.5mm jack, the fm transmitter, WiFi, GPS etc... make this a phone worth having. What do you think of the keys that are not numbers?

I want the N82 to have such updates too!!! Also, it seems like I predicted right. The N78 seems to be more focused about music and the sound quality is great. I think N96 would be the same. That's why there are not much improvements in other hardware departments from N73 and N95. Woah, so many nice software updates!!!!! I want the N82 to have such updates too!!!
