Hi All

So confused, ive been waiting for the n97 for months and months but now ive got it am having so many problems with it, internet keeps cutting out, phone very slow, keeps crashing, touchscreen sometimes doesnt work

Shall i hold out and wait for more updates or is the best thing to do is sell it and buy a different make handset ?

No, he means format your mass memory from the phone's menu.

Indeed, if they were giving away free proptypes, formatting the phone every 2 weeks to resolve some bug or other would be fine.

He has also mentioned dissapointment with it, and said that Nokia should do something.

A lot of people do like their N97s you know.
