Now, My old reliable Moto Razer ferrari edition, had out lived its life expectancy, it recently broke down and I had to get a new one. Post paid mobiles with plans are not my thing as I tend to feel tied down to one carrier and I have problems keeping with in my plan
So I called up my old aide, my dad, and asked him to buy me a cellphone.He luckily had one lying around. He read the name out to me….N-o-k-i-a N…NNNNNN 97.
“What kind of name is Nokia ?” He askes me… I am not sure what to reply… Finnish I thought!
Looks Wicked... Touch screen And a slide out Keyboard
N97…The most advanced phone that Nokia had to offer….wow!! this must be my lucky day I thought.
A few moons later the packet arrived. I was so excited about the packet that I kept my room mates up all night(all 3 of them) …. .I went through all the forums on the internet, watched all the reviews of NOKIA N97 on the youtube and was some how hoping that my dad made a mistake of reading the model number right and some how it was Nokia N900 “The geek phone”
The Ultimate geek Phone.....:drool:
The packet arrived… I jumped up and opened the packet….My dad indeed had made a mistake…It was not Nokia N 97…..It was a Nokia N79….Damn!!!!! “Why does every one in my family have to be “cellphone”ically challenged!!! ?
NO slide out Keyboard!!!!!Damn You Nokia ...Damn you!!!!!
O man… N 79… I rather get my old faith ful out and get it repaired.What does the N79 have that The old faithful din’t have. Probably a GPS but that is it… what good is a GPS anyway?. My old faithful was a head turner, like me…..Stylish and Black.

Whose afraid of the big black bat?” – The Riddler, Some Bat man movie.
My old faithful... My Moto Razer!!!! I miss you! Damn you N97!
Now I am stuck with the N79…. The OVI suite is outdated, Does not install properly, the online sync does not work properly, The phone is not recognized properly on the computer, I am yet to figure out how to disable the phone from using 3G,restarted my PC some 10 times today…. All this is not helping ….Damn you NOKIA n79.
Although they had given a instruction manual with the phone, but the OVI suite was of 2008, it has been updated some 10 times in the span of 2 years, GPS maps are free and what not.
At this point of time after un-installing and installing my OVi suite some 10 times, a quote from my friend, Rahul Sharma, comes to my mind
“If at first you dont succeed, try, try again, and then if it still doesnt work get a hammer, then if it still doesnt work after that…….READ THE MANUAL, then go buy a new one and do it right the first time!”
How do I feel right now?……Amm …. let me say if you are expecting a Black Berry and are given a Nokia 1100 and that too with the torch disabled….. That is exactly how I am feeling.!!!
Damn you NOKIA N79…You rott in helll!
Having said all that …any one wanna trade a Nokia 79 to a Nokia N97 or a N 900 ?
