There is a rather bizare bug in the latest firmware:

Start a new message, don't enter a contact.

type "Ey gringo! How's it going? What did corrie say?"

[don't ask!] and look at the screen...

... anyone else see anything strange?

I think the N80 is littered with bugs,While playing a game if my phone rings and i answer,The game and fone will crash when i fnish the call.Sometimes i need to hit the menu button several times before it launches.Sometimes the music player is ropey,It also switches my fone off some time when im playing it,tho that has tended to happen when my fone is low on battery!

Yea me too.. I just tested that message to myself, and even tough it looks weird when sending it, it does turn out fine when the recepient gets it..

The one thing bothering me is the time it takes for the messages to send..
Anyone else have this problem or could it be a program i have that slows it down i wonder??

Ive had this bug for a while now and its REALLY IRRITATING!

but when i tried to post it on here about a week ago, I couldnt replicate the problem again manually. tried loads of messages.

I thought it would be something to do with the length of words and posistion of spaces etc... but when i type your message above, and change only 1 letter, the problem doesnt appear....

very wierd !!

I know! I tried to replicate it with different word combinations and with words of the same letters with spaces in the same places but could only replicate it with the text above.

Very Strange.

I've started to get real slow down of the phone when sending a text message. It hangs for about 5 seconds whilst it's sending. Only seems to have done it recently, so it may be some software running in the background..
