slightly Off topic here -

i am interested in buying this phone, but why do you want to flash it? what advantage is there in that? does it give us access to more features on the phone that may otherwise not be there in the official firmwares?

my reason to go in for this phone would be its awesome camera. will flashing the phone give me more features?

i today went to lajpat nagar mkt to buy this phone. I finalesd a deal with dealer in 26.2k. but when he was about to get the phone from his wholeseller. It was out of stock. Then i searched the whole market. not even the a single shop was left. Everywhere it was out of stock. If anybody can help me get this phone. Please help. M based in Delhi.

I also faced the same problem......i waited about 3 hours in that shop for my piece......it was out of stock elsewhere.....
Try that shop in basement in lajpat nagar having a nokia shop on top of it.....

26.2 k is a very good price . try to post some low light indoor photos ..

even I want to see some hands-on low light photos, where the flash has been used. If i buy this phone as a camera phone then i need to be sure that the flash is decent.
Over the net i am getting mixed reviews about the phone. some people are going crazy over it while the rest cannot stop taking pot shots at its Symbian bloodline, at its great-screen-which-is-not-so-good-in-direct-sunlight, and verious issues with its official firmwares.
to me the phone looks quite solid, and i am waiting for a detailed review on its camera, both still photography and video recording.
please help me out someone.
