okay this is a bit irrelevant, but i’ve just downloaded the massive 500mb s60v5 sdk from forum.nokia and installed it. There’s an emulator in it that allows us to TRY out this phone! its pretty damn awesome, i’ve tried web browsing in it and totally in love with the interface!! :D

@ArunKarthik,

Hi! what’s the link? I’m interested to try how non-touchscreen apps and java games that relies on d-pad work in it. I heard that the system will provide virtual-dpad :)
