I've been using mine for a couple of months now, it's an excellent phone. I've had one or two little problems with it but in the main it's the most stable series 60 phone I've used yet.

The camera quality is pretty good for a phone, build quality is good although I don't like how the keys move aruond, I keep catching beard hair betweeen the C button and the side of the casing. It's a bit slow but it's not too much of a problem when using it.

i just got mine yesterday. Its a nice phone. Bit too similar to my 7610 tho (both being series 60 phones)

Whats the best way to put mp3 ring tones on it? I had a quick look at the nokia pc software and theres only really a MIDI converter (i haven't looked terribly hard) If i wanna just put the chorous of a song there what do i do?

I've had my N70 for a couple of weeks, and wow! what a top phone! there isn't much it cant do! I splashed out £25 on a 512mb memory card for it, it's well worth doing, you cant fit much on the 64mb card you get with it, especially with the 2mp camera.
I've been watching the new TV channels on Voda and it works very well. The sound quality is also extreamly good on the mp3 player.. Only gripe is battery life, but it's the same with all 3g phones....

I should have it for Friday.

Can I use my memory card from my old Nokia 6600 ?

I am looking forward to the Vodaphone TV as well.

I just use the file explorer in the NPCS and drag the MP3s I want into the "Sounds\Digital" folder on the memory card. If you want to chop a bit of a song to copy over you can't go far wrong with audacity, free and pretty intuitive. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

Faymondo: The 6600 uses full size MMC cards but the N70 uses mobile MMC cards which are smaller, you could use an adapter to put the card from the N70 in the 6600 but the card from the 6600 physically won't fit in the N70, sorry.
