Music and Photography - a double whammy?

Announced around six months ago, the Nokia N73 Music Edition is finally becoming available. What's new for this revamp of the popular high street best seller and is the whole Music Edition thing worthwhile? Read my review of the N73 Music Edition to find out.

"(enough for around 30 CDs worth of music)"

Of course it depends on what audio quality you personally find acceptable, but you can get about 100 CDs worth of AAC+ tracks onto a 2GB card at a reasonable itunes-style quality.

Also depends on how long each CD is 8-)

the 30 CDs figure was based on MP3, but yes, with AAC+ or WMA you can get at least double that figure.

...and how long the track is. 😊

I can imagine some prog rock fan buying a music player for its "1000 tracks" ability and then complaining when they can only fit 100 Mike Oldfield tracks on it.

Incidentally, the same headphone adapter (plus waterproof headphones) are included with the 5500, I hope Nokia makes a habit of including these as standard with their smartphones.

I have to disagree about the Stave (green) theme. Everyone I've shown it to / everyone I know who's using the ME firmware prefers this theme over the others. It's certainly the one I use on my N73.
