it would be nice if nokia had some proper way to synchronize updates for firmware for the phones (through usb ot a host mac rather than trying to use the crapy web browser) ,,,

there is the annoying gap that exists between nokia production models & prepoduction models (carrier testing) …. there is no simple/obvious way to update nokia phones firmware.

i have a 6670 (not N series) so i cant use the osx file transfer utility (bluetooth) to retrieve the contents of the memory cards(pictures etc) — no volumes are properly mounted (via usb mass storage api), so i dont see any either the built-in or the add-in memory for the 6670 :-( … though other non mass-storage profiles for BT do work with my mac OK (eg remcon with Salling Clicker).

ps: attn webmaster — this webform is NUTS! trying to use firefoxV3alpha4 .. and there is a huge latency sometimes when typing; sometimes it is impossible to get text selected - the insertion point (I-beam) seems to have no effect sometimes … i cant edit any of the text!

For those planning to resist the iPhone come on, be on the lookout for boat-loads of used Nokia handsets flooding Craigslist and eBay in the coming weeks.
