Predictive text in T9 closed mode, and auto completion when you're using the full keyboard, you just need to turn it on :-) Plus there's the built in dictionary which allows you to load a second language and it will translate for you :-) Not sure what you mean Mike, the N97 has that too… Predictive text in T9 closed mode, and auto completion when you’re using the full keyboard, you just need to turn it on :-)

My N97 always worked fine as a phone, it was things like the music player that used to drive me insane. Unfortunately just after I worked out what was causing all the problems it met an unfortunate accident involving a Landrover wheel and I ended up back with my N95. I forgot how sorted the N95 was, and have only just got round to fixing the N97. Only needed to replace the LCD panel. £34.99. Could do with a few cosmetic replacements, but I quite like the battered look! The reason the 3mp camera on the iPhone looks so sharp is it does a load of sharpening in software, a bit too much for my liking. Hi Mike,
