The Phones Show 92 (Nokia 5730, Security part 2)

Brief news, then on with Security on your Phone - part 2, a hands-on review of the Nokia 5730 XpressMusic, an invite to both SEE 2009 and to submit your own one minute video testimonies - and a quick comment about a special device with 6" touchscreen and quality keyboard....

[@rizwan1983]

I loved the ending. Where did we go wrong indeed! Thank you for the show! I was entertained and informed!

[@tehkseven]

Awesome as always Steve :D. I was really excited when I saw a new video from you!

[@stevelitchfield]

Yes, Symbian started as 'Psion Software'. I used to (kind of) work for the latter, doing software for their Games Pack!

[@stevelitchfield]

Yes, sorry about that. I got hit by an iMovie 09 bug, it seems. Gah. I'm not re-uploading it all again...... Sorry.

[@tehkseven]

Omg.. I like that cheeky bit you did at the end.. You had me going! Quite agree with that point though :)

[@nukinetix]

Wow .. what you said in the end, SO TRUE! I couldn't have said it better myself ;-)
It's incredible, isn't it? It really really is...

[@MyNokiaBlog]

What about the Sony P-series...albeit not phones, small, large screen, pretty functional keyboard?

[@KrishP12]

Congrats Steve, as usual great show and lots of information..i like specially the Steve Jobs part..lol..I was expecting the top 5 in this show but better luck next time...lol

[@stevelitchfield]

Nokia N95, E71 and E75 spring to mind. And the N97 after October, which is a lot more future proof 8-)

[@stevelitchfield]

Wouldn't have thought so.... Save your money?
Bold is more up to date? Tough call though.

[@KrishP12]

You are absolutely right about syncing the data...special after T-Mobile sidekick TRAGEDY...and i think only 1 service or server is not enough so I always sync with my laptop..OTA with Google and ZYB....so if in case 1 failed or get troubled ,i can recover from another source..

[@stevelitchfield]

Yes, assuming the relevant PR companies get the hardware organised!! HD2 looks good but that TouchFLO system is going to rankle with me yet again, I reckon....

[@stevelitchfield]

If anyone can see this, it appears that user comments are broken at RUclips's end 8-(

[@stevelitchfield]

Fair enough. Trouble is that it's hard to give much coverage to the iPhone since Apple only do ONE new model per YEAR 8-)

[@Scottish_Heat]

Hi Steve, Good review of the Nokia 5730. I've had that phone for about a month and I like how understated it looks and feature packed it is.
There is one thing you missed on is that it has gaming buttons for the Nokia's n-gage 2.0 platform.
I'm glad there is still an alternative to the touch screen dominance mobile devices have these days.
I don't like the plastic battery cover too much though and it annoys me also how muffled the sound is. I might drill the battery cover like you said. lol

[@stevelitchfield]

*Every* modern S60 device has one.

[@art_art09]

Mine question:
Nokia 5730 or Se W995?

[@krizanand]

Hi steve
I 100% agree with you regarding the security let it be one contact or 100 contacts sync everyday without fail and take a backup on the card and PC atleast once in a month there is point is crying over spilled milk when u have umpteen options to keep it secure
I saw your review and comparison of 5730 Xm in AAS too i am serously considering it as i have become a fan of QWERTYes and bad side of it is the speakers it sounded like S**t with the back cover, a nice find from you too

[@sulikee]

hey Steve... is it worth registering for wave secure service provided for free by Nokia....
also which device is better... the Nokia e90 or the blackberry bold...!!!

[@stevelitchfield]

All of them. Well, almost. 8-)

[@stevelitchfield]

I normally show the links on-screen - remember that 80% of viewers pick up the show via RSS or iTunes!!!!

[@stevelitchfield]

Maybe. With a big M 8-)

[@stevelitchfield]

Yeah, I'm going to develop a Steve Jobs 'One last thing' meme.....

[@stevelitchfield]

No!

[@ashtonkonon]

lol make drill holes on the phone back cover
best idea!!! =D

[@stevelitchfield]

Neither. I'd rather have something vaguely mature and well supported. 8-)

[@stevelitchfield]

Psion Series 5... Google it! 8-)

[@stevelitchfield]

Left. The qatar one must be a fake.

[@obsedatr6]

hey steve,what phone do you have?nokia 5800?

[@NedKelly5580]

First time I have ever been the first to post a comment...
Which one? Omnia HD i8910 or Nokia N900

[@NovaScene]

Steve, the volume levels are so f'd up. The music in the beginning and at the end si so freaking LOUD! compared to the voice you use to speak. :/
Could you fix it? ...oh and also your shirt needs some fixing. :D

[@heshere2001]

lol @ end! :D

[@ichi1082]

lol @ 08:17
"argh"

[@BuDaddy2]

I dunno... I used to enjoy The Phones Show, but since I switched from Nokia to the iPhone 3G(s), I'm having trouble giving a rat's ass about it. Time to hit the unsubscribe button.
