Hi Eleanor go to www.mobiles.co.uk
They do discounted deals and they sell sim free phones as part of their
contract deals. They are a partner of the Carphonewarehouse but have known to
be cheaper as they don't have stores in which you can visit. They are a online
dealer only.
Anyway I took the libity of checking if they had the N97 on Vodafone and they
do. One of the deals ties you into a 24 month contract and you will get 600
anytime minutes with free texts along with Vodafone Passport for £25 per month.
The phone will cost you £59 which is understandable given it's unlocked price.

Does vodafone do the N97, I know they do the N97 Mini. Sorry for those of you
who do not purchase branded phones this is an enquiry.

Hi Saqib.
Well, my N97 hasn't crashedon me, but then I only use it for brief periods of
time with the standard functions. The only thing I'd say about the N97 is that
it has a very low amount of user available memory on the C drive. Even with
the phone freshly formatted and hard reset, you get around 60 megs, but with
the N97 mini, you have over 250 megs. That said however, talks is very small
compared to mobile speak, so even with both eloquence UK and US installed, the
entire consumption would only be about 5 megs while the MS installation file
alone consumes 6 megs plus the high quality voices are 20 megs a piece. In
short, its not something to get majorly concerned over, though if you plan to
install a lot of applications, it needs to be considered.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Ibrahim. Last year there were reports of the N97 having mini crashes.
Has the latest firmware ironed this bug out. I went for the Mini after reading
about the N97 firmware issues on a couple of review sites.

Hi Saqib.
Severl reasons come to mind. Firstly, the N97 has not only the larger
amount of memory, but importantly in my view comes with propper hardware GPS,
an FM Transmittor which is a nice touch and just generally I feel just more
comfortable with the device. The N97 Mini's keyboard is smaller than the
N97's, you can really spread your hands on the bigger keyboard as I haven't got
the smallest or most nimble of fingers plus you have the navi pad rather than
the smaller arrow keys the mini comes with. There are other advantages over
the smaller brother, it takes the same battery as the E71 communicator so long
battery life comes as standard, the mini has a battery which is extremely hard
to come by as it is the only battery in Nokia's range which fits just the one
phone.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Ibrahim. Why do you prefer it's older brother? Is it because of the
internal storrage being 4 times as much? I would like your opinion on the
keypad as I think the querty keys are too close on the Mini. Is it better
typing on the N97?

Hi Mandy.
Talks 5.0 will be supporting the N97 mini. If your thinking of buying
one, I am thinking of selling mine as I have an N97 and I don't think I'll be
using my mini as I prefer its bigger brother. Please email me off-list at
ibrahim_gucukoglu@xxxxxxxx and I'm sure we can sort something, I might even be
able to save you some money.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Ibrahim,
I had a look at the N97 mini yesterday and quite liked the phone, I
presume the new Talks version will be compatible with that now? and what about
the Blackberry?
