      ummm… hi sirs i don’t know where you get your false changelogs… but please in the future release factual information about the products/services/issues that you review. i can attest that 90% on this list is not true and maybe the 449+ bugfixes are also not true… here is MY change log:
      1) Smaller digital clock at the bottom of the screen
      2) Bug fix on Video recording was fixed (that’s why i said 449+)

      update the chage log please… thanx!

      Hi,

      It seems that with these update, my nokia become unstable and I need to reset few times.
      1. Keypad is unstable pressing J and # will appear during chatting in Nimbuzz
      2. My network is unstable and does not appear when the phone is not in the 3G connection area. My wife Iphone is more stable.
      3. Hang few times.
      4. Not much changes on the UI as the E5.

      Maybe this is my last nokia. I will be changing to either Iphone or android.

      So far i cant notice much of a change with the version update.
      But two things i noticed which i dont like after the update is :
      1) the clock at the bottom has got smaller font sixe now
      2) the keypad locks even when there are applications running..eg: while listening to music thru the music player the keypad autolocks after the fixed time..this is annoying..

      This updated did not fix some of my issue on my E72

      Video recording
      - jerking as it record. Before update it was smooth

      Key pad button V
      - when typing name on main, other alphabet shown no problem, when press V it was shown 7 instead

      Calculator
      - before the very 1st update, I can use decimal point… now after 2 update I still cannot use decimal point anymore……

      this is craps!!!!!!!
