Good decision to buy N80.

Battery life increases by 100% if you upgrade to the latest firmware.

For an average user it will last 2-3 days (after the firmware upgrade) compared to the 1-1.5 days backup it used to give with the previous firmware.

It is not slow by any means and it has features that cant be matched by other phones in its price range. 352x416 pixel display, Wifi, 40MB internal memory, 3MP camera etc.

I saw one for sale on www.univercell.in grab it before it gets sold out.

If you are found of slider phone & heavy handset (of-course with all the features).. then you can surely go for it..
Just have a look around for some new mobiles in the market with similar features ...

It is a simple process, if you have a computer with broadband connection. Will take around 20-30 minutes for the upgrade.

There is only Internet Edition available now, the other model has been phased out. I think the only difference is that N80 IE comes preloaded with some web related s/w

But is the N80 Internet Edition still available in shops?
I doubt so. And I am referring to new phone....not second hand.
