Detailed review
This is my 2nd Nokia phone, my first one was Nokia N-Gage.

I really eyed on this phone since it's first appearance as concept device. I bought is for $400 and I completely loved it at first. But after 1 year of usage I found these:

Good:
Touchscreen just works
Nokia makes updates to improve the phone
Build quality is good (except screen + bezel)

Bad:
Touchscreen is scratched (after 1 year)
bezel of the screen is annoying - dust gets in
Applications close after slight freeze - very very annoying
Slow (due to bad CPU)
Battery life is 1 day

Overall I would not recommend this phone. You should better wait for a better Nokia handset or get an iPhone if you don't mind the closed platform.
