AFAIK no RDS, black or titanium depends on your personal preference, other than that, N-82 seems to have it all, except a touch screen of course

Can anyone tell abt the keypad of N82?? Is it difficult getting used 2 it??
Can anyone convince me to buy a Nokia N82? The only reason I am not buying it is its keypad
I can't spend 20k on a mobile which has such aweful keypad.
I guess I better wait for the Nokia N78 which should be cheaper.....but there again I don't know how comfortable the keypad is going to be. Atleast in pictures the keypad looks very bad.
Why does Nokia make these keypads? Don't they realise that they would be losing out on so many customers just bcos of the keypad?

@nikeel...I guess the keypad of N78 is gonna be the same as N82's...
Actually I just wanted 2 know that how stiff r the keys..Is the keypad soft or not?? I have small hands so won't b a problem 4 me otherwise...

i find the keypad to be pretty ok to use .. not such a big problem at all .. the only actual problem is the wrong placement of multimedia key .. if u were to blow 20k on a phone then it has to be n82 at the moment.. actually it is 18k something now .. i got it for 24k last december ..
and yeah, nokia did a very bad job in design and keypad of such a gem of a phone.. i think they did not want to disturb the sale of n95..

I think Nokia has reduced the keypad size on N82 coz' they can increase the display size to along with the candy bar form factor...They did not have any other choice...If keypad would have been big, then the display size wud have been smaller...

Yes, the phone would have been clamshell or slider then...Come on, u can't put a big display and a big keypad on a candy bar phone....U have 2 compromise on either of the two...
They made a wise move by increasing the display size coz' thatz more important than the keypad I believe to most of the users...

right now its 18k something i guess .. it will easily come down to 16-17k in 2 months time .. and xenon flash of n82 simply rocks ..
still i think there are few things that would have made it truly all round phone
1. optical zoom
2. navi wheel as in coming n78
3. dvbh
4. a bit louder speakers
5. hardware fm stereo transmitter as in n78

N78 is just an enhancement of N73......

Wi-fi will bw there i guess...still cant beat N82 camera quality...

N78 is going to be available in the next couple of weeks......last week of May or first week of June. Its officially slated for release in UK on 22 May, so should be available after a couple of weeks here.
N78 is N73 plus Wifi and GPS.
It also has Symbian 9.2 Feature Pack 2 (its the first phone to have this which has enhancements like full screen caller without third party software)
It also has a FM transmitter which can transmit FM to your car's audio. And if my interpretation is right, u can listen to FM without connecting the headphones !!
If the phone is priced around 15k should be a good buy.... just the keypad is aweful
