Nokia 5800 ExpressMusic vs 5800 Naviagtion Edition What's the difference between the 5800 ExpressMusic and this Navigation Edition? Right now the NE is 10 dollars less than the ExpressMusic (list price of NE is also 30 dollars less). Why is this cheaper? Is the NE missing accessories that is found in the ExpressMusic package?

@OnlineGamerYes, the Nav edition can be upgraded to the v40 firmware now. It came in end of February and was a welcome update. Kinetic scrolling is great in photo and music browser, but its not available in the main/applications menu. Another welcome addition in the new firmware is the new homescreen style where you can have upto 20 contacts and shortcuts in the homescreen. I also like the new transparent themes which if you search for online you can get some good ones. So overall a welcome update and makes the Nav edition better value.

The 5800 Nav. Edition already has improved software over that which came with the 5800 Music Ed. It doesn't require an update. My Nav. Edition allows me to set the screen sensitivity from the menu. I have never bothered as it was very sensitive as set from the factory. It also has no problem with scrolling or handwriting.

@T.PatrickYou are right. I was wrong about the US version. The v40 firmware was introduced in January for many international versions but not for the US versions. Bottom line right now is (as I mentioned before) its a matter of personal preference if you like the black with a silver stripe on the sides or chrome trim around the screen. They are both good phones.

Please post your comments on the good and the bad of the keyboard. I am a current user of Nokia E71 and E75 and would like to buy 5800 Nav Ed for its free maps and stylus and touchscreen. Thank you in advace.

@Health For LifeDid you mean that you updated your Nav edition to v40? I was shocked to hear Homer Singhson say that the Nav edition could not be upgraded, as I am waiting for my phone to be delivered and was really looking forward to the kinetic scrolling.
1773021
@ Online gamer, Yes, I did. I bought mine in Nov and so did 2 firmware updates so far.

@Homer SinghsonThanks for clarifying the firmware update. Lack of kinetic scrolling on the home page sounds acceptable, maybe even a good thing. Media lists really beg for KS, though. I'm glad it's there.

I got one for my old (6-7 yrs.) Nokia Trac Fone somewhere on Amazon. Was only about 5 bucks compared to $40.(!) at a brick & mortar store. Sorry, don't recall just which vendor.

Hi there,i'd like to buy a new 8GB mp3, but, i'm confused between the new ipod nano and zune. people say that the 3rd gen nano has a great battery life now, but, i'm discouraged from transferring my music files to itunes and changing the format (i've been using windows media. so, they're mostly in .wma)Is it true that Zune's software is crippled?being an experienced useer, would you recommend zune or nano? =)thanks a bunch!!

Garmin's website is still showing $60/year for the FM Traffic subscription. Are you sure about your info? I just bought the c580, so it's not really a concern for me, but if the price continues to drop I may replace my other c3xx series GPS (the c580 went to my wife) with a 550 or 580.

Although I only own the white version I am pretty sure that the internals are identical. The price differences are a fine example of marketing in action; the more popular item (=higher demand) is priced higher or in simple terms: you take what you can get. By the way, the prices are also different in Germany where we live half of the year. Prices are much higher there and black is the cheapest version because customer preferences differ from the US.

Not sure why the differance. But,I bought the BT,it's awesome! I got a great price and it works really good. Good luck!

The difference between the two is the Zen Nano Plus has direct cd recording. I don't know for sure why there is such a big price difference but my guess would be that the Zen Nano isn't produced anymore (the Zen Nano Plus is an upgrade) and so there's a limited quantity.

Well you also get traffic license, which I don't think is included regularly. It will be interesting to see. Many people are complaining that they spent extra for this, but since I got it Black Friday, I'm not worried. The little extra I spent is worth it for the extra charger and car kit and the traffic license, which I use a lot. They'll probably match nokiausa.com's price eventually.

This is the first one I purchased, so I am not sure the difference. I would think it has added enhancements. Check out the Withings site for more details.

@ alexanderaku, I just bought a Nav edition 5800 a couple of weeks ago. I had the same questions as RY Chua has. Hence did the research and found out the differences. That said, I still bought this phone and love it. I personally can't comment of whether the update on Xpress music has made that screen more sensitive than the current Nav version or not. Although kinetic scrolling is a plus in the new firmware. Apart from that I liked the chrome strip on the Nav compared to the Xpress music, which comes with the same color strip as the rest of the phone (check out the pics of the Nav edition vs. Xpress music). Also, I bought it from a different seller and paid a little extra as amazon didn;t have this price then, so this price is great for the Nav edition.

Just an update - Because I didn't want to take the chance of getting the older v8, and then having to go to Garmin for the latest NT2008-v9, I ordered mine today from PC Nation.I placed my order over the phone, they were very helpful, and they confirmed they have the new version. PC Nation is selling it for $9.00 less than Amazon, and they offer free 3 day shipping. Because I'd like to get mine before Thursday/Friday of this week, I opted for overnight by DHL - they have a special of $11.00ish.I just checked online, and my Garmin 350 has shipped. I should be getting it by tomorrow around 3:00ish PM PST.If anyone is interested, I'll write back tomorrow to let you know about my new toy!

I just purchased the Nuvi 350. I went to a location and looked at the 350 and the 550 side by side. The Nuvi is much smaller, lighter and easier to handle. The mount contains a power connection, so you dont have to unplug the unit every time you remove it, the power is provided by the mount. It has a single speaker (so stereo), but you are not purchasing a boom box, you are buying a navigator. The internal speaker is louder than the 550 (I tried them side by side.) There is a headset plug in for headphones for the MP3 player or you can connect it to the aux input of your stereo. The nuvi, imho, is a better unit than the streetpilot.

The 5RE+ has subtle differences from the nonplus. For example: the plus has one more watt output. Essentially, they are the same radio.

Hi K. Ness, I just bought the S10 3t 2 days ago in Seattle Fry's for $499. Since then I upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium (a must if you want to truly enjoy the multi-touch features) and now looking to upgrade to 2G RAM (less of a must as the netbook is performing really well already but I'm used to laptops and using MS Office so I want the extra speed). Regarding the GPS and WiMax that's the bit I'm struggling with at the moment. I keep reading various take on wether it is included or not. Same with Bluetooth. None seems to be working for me despite finding all the drivers on the web (drivers which are meant to be for the S10-3T which is the unit I have in my hands - btw typing this reply with it at the moment). There's also a slot for a 3G Sim Card which I have inserted but no luck there either. Probably because this is such a new product there's still no support page on Lenovo support website. So to summarise this is a great netbook/tablet PC (nice capacitive touch screen, large keyboard, decent performance) but I would have liked to see more out of the box support and documentation. Does it have GPS, WiMax, Bluetooth, 3G support ? I'm frustrated to say "I don't know" despite having the device in my own hands. So Lenovo I suggest you formally and clearly document what's in and what's not. One last thing the speakers are pretty poor compare to the iPhone's which has less physical space. But overall still a great piece of technology for the price as you get the best of both world (a netbook and a slate) and I highly recommend it.

The model at B&H; is the new version. The difference is only that it works with iPhones. There is no reason Amazon should be selling it for way over the recommended price. I imagine they are trying to 'encourage' people to clear their stock of the old model before they drop the price, which is REALLY annoying.
