You need to open the back cover to put the string. Put the string through the hole in the bottom left of the phone and hook the string inside. Its really hard to describe .

Anyway , have anyone installed the new picture viewer app from beta labs ? Looks awesome .

Yup the Photobrowser app is very good. Although its in beta it has some nice and neatly implemented features like magnification, panning etc. The feature that i like the most is the animation when switching from landscape to portrait and vice versa.

U can get it from

I've heard that nokia is making a gesture UI for its touch screen phones. Do you think that it would be also available on Nokia 5800XM ?

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic in silver and we've got the pics to prove it

The original announcement of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic promised three color versions: Red, Blue and Black. Up until now only the red and blue ones have been available, but the grey-striped one will finally hit the shelves as well and here are the live shots to prove it.

Hello folks,

I'm planning to buy this phone soon. Someone please clarify the following:

1) I plan to use a strap with this mobile (I mean the bands that you can fix to the bottom part of the phone, so that you can wear it around your neck). Does the phone have provision for this?
This is important because I use public transport a lot and I already lost my Nokia N73ME once.

2) Currently I'm in Germany. Is it better to get the phone from here or buy the same in India?

3) What's the latest price for this phone? I heard that it costs about 18.5k about a month back.

4) I also saw in a few websites that a silver color model is being released. Any idea when this is expected?

Thanks in advance.

Yes you can use a neck strap.

If u are not bothered about warranty then you can buy it in india.Look at the price diff and buy it where it is cheaper.You will get a lot of preloaded(Bolly,Eng,Rahman's Connections) songs if you buy it in India.Finally it is your choice.
3) What's the latest price for this phone? I heard that it costs about 18.5k about a month back.
I guess it costs you the same now,but different sellers have different offers
some offer bundled earphones(sennheiser),some offer price discounts.
4) I also saw in a few websites that a silver color model is being released. Any idea when this is expected?
Yeah i too saw it.But no idea when it is gonna hit indian stores.Not soon though.

Nokia UK claims that its first mass market touchscreen device has toppled Apple's iPod as UK's best-selling portable music player in 2009 which is not surprising at all considering that Nokia has managed to sold over 2.6 million units during the first quarter, with cumulative shipments of more than 3 million units since the 5800’s launch in late November 2008!

Latest GfK Retail and Technology UK figures for Jan-Mar 2009 have revealed that Nokia 5800 XM is 'The No.1 selling portable MP3 player in UK' in terms of both volume and values it defines a portable music player as any device capable to plays music and has a standard 3.5 mm audio jack.
