Regarding the charging thing I agree that it takes 3 hrs to get fully charged with a 350mA charger, but it stays for the whole day...no complaint abt that...I bought it in oct 2007 end with 256 mb memory card @ Rs 10000/-, this set in my overall 7th mobile set in 4 yrs and 2nd in CDMA (RIM) in 1 yr. I find this set at this price range very fulfilling and no other set on NOKIA CDMA for RIM anywhere near this in terms of user friendly, picture quality, beauty etc...
