Has anyone here had experience with the Nokia N81? It seems to look quite funky and modern. Not an N95 killer as it only has a 2MP camera, but it seems it has more memory and you can get it in an 8GB Version!

I was considering this phone.
What put me off was the bad reviews of it all over the net, mainly due to its poor buttons & camera. Also someone at MTN told me that they are no longer stocking them due to the high amount of come backs..
Went for the Nav, very very happy with it.

no no don't say that, N81 is a great phone besides camera and low functionality on navi wheel. I am planning to do a review on it soon, and I believe new firmware will add some nice features, if you don't afford N82 or N95 8GB, N81 is a great phone

The N81 is a great phone, but I felt an N95 feels way more solid, especially around the navigation keys. I went for the N95 instead, not the 8GB tho...:-(

im a proud owner of N95, but i believe the build quality is total crap compared to N81!
