nokia e51

Recently I have switched from my old trusty Nokia 3120 to a Nokia E51.

I don't usually spend on stuff that ain't edible, but at S$48 it was a real bargain. This candy bar (ironically I don't trust stuff that has too many mechanical components) has got a shiny stainless steel casing, 240 x 320 pixels screen, 2 megapixel camera, but what attracted me was the integrated WLAN (IEEE 802.11g)! (erm, in simpler term, it has wireless) It is the cheapest machine around that has WiFi!

I don't carry a laptop to school and the wireless is pretty useful. It's like in the middle of a tutorial question I can look up wikipedia for formulas and stuff. And I can open up MSN Messenger too.

But it has got quite a bit of weaknesses too. If you set auto keypad lock, it will lock your menu forever until you restart the phone -_-" The media player hangs on startup. The lack of qwerty keyboard also results in lotsa weird typo mistake thanks to the predictive text. Oh and it's a sucker on battery, normally can't last more than 3 days. (I dunno, my previous phone can easily last for 1 week)

And this is my first camera phone. I don't quite like the fake shutter sound. Anyone knows how to hack it?
