Default Nokia N78

Anyone got this? Seriously considering getting. I am much more about aesthetics than functionality, but really poor functionality does annoy me - for example I had the 8800 and that was a beautiful phone but AWFUL to use.... I've seen some mixed reviews on this - it does look very nice but the keypad seems to be a bit of an issue and i am a heavy texter!

Alternatively, there was the 6220 classic but the plastic casing really does put me off!

I'm going to sell my N95 now - only had it a year but it's far too bulky and the battery life is HORRENDOUS, absolutely awful. Any idea on what's the most I could expect for it?

I recently changed from the N95 to the N78 and don't have any regrets. I'm not a heavy texter (around 150 a month), but find it slightly easier to type on the N78 than the N95. The battery life is vastly improved, which is perhaps the feature I appreciate the most.
There is one bug I have found: if I use the FM transmitter (to play music in the car for example) then the loudspeaker will not function until the phone is power cycled. I am hoping that this will be fixed in the next firmware update.

Good stuff mate - thanks for that. The battery life on the N95 has annoyed me so much, to the point where I carry round a spare battery with me whereveer I go! Glad to hear your opinion on it, anyone else?
