Hi and welcome,
Firmware is the same as every other Nokia, type *#0000#
Apps, TomTom.
also, i have wireles internet at home, will i be able to be online on my new nokia e61 thru wifi?

Yes your E61 will work a treat with your WLAN at home..............
As for applications there's hundreds out there, I'm using:
GoogleMaps
GoogleMail Client
Mail for Exchange (for work email)
emTube (like YouTube on your phone)
Fring (for all instant messaging and VoIP calls)
Splash (for viewing and manipulating images properly)
1GB card full of games - all of which are full versions and free, but you're not allowed to discuss that on here!:redface:
hey samster,
do all those applications on your phone make it slow?
:con?ok, another question...

Yes and no.
WAP uses a special language called wireless markup or WML -- sites authored in WML are unreadable on a desktop browser and (I'm pretty sure) your regular Nokia browser.
A good example of a WAP site would be your carrier's wireless portal, or any page with a ".wml" suffix.
There are also mobile-optimized or 'light' sites that go easy on the layout and graphics but can be viewed on a full browser. An example would be the BBC's mobile news site:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/nolpda/ukfs_news/hi/default.stm
Hope that helps...
ok thanks for clarifying.
is the opera browser necesary on the e61 or is the safari one on the nokia better?

I would give the nod to Opera Mini for its server-side optimization of sites and bookmarks sync with a desktop browser.
