a few highlights...
  • first Nokia smartphone with the Symbian OS
  • (version 6.1)
  • first Series 60 (Now S60)) platform device
  • first Nokia with built-in camera
  • The handset's release was promoted in conjunction with the film Minority Report.
  • it was also featured in Tom Raider 2...
i don't use it actively anymore (headset connector doesn't work properly (design fault) and is very heavy for the features it has)
My second smartphone a, nokia 9210 from 2001 , with symbian OS series 80 , is still going strong too.

However, after reading some messages involving components that get loose from the circuitboards, i think those older ones were better soldered than the new ones.
