not happy with my n97 at all

I'd hold off trying Skyfire for the moment - I can't get past the 'Accept' screen on my 5800, doesn't like the touch buttons by the looks of it.

Many thanks Bubba. You've been very helpful.

I can truthfully say that I've not once been able to use the internet successfully on the N97. Unfortunately - stupid me - I'm tied into a 24 month contract. Is there anything I can do? The N97 just doesn't do the job it is supposed to do.

I would consider the fact you have a faulty handset. My N97 moves pages almost instantly on wifi. Same speed if not faster than my son's Itouch on the same router. The speed of the internet issue hasn't been mentioned IMO, so I'd take it back for a return

Yes, I have many issues with the browser (see my thread here: N97 Browser Issues) but it is pretty fast for small to average sized pages. Certainly faster than any previous Symbian or N-Series device I've used.
