N86 lens protector

N97 lens protector

Find the difference between the lens protectors 😉
Nokia clearly saw the problem ..
We need new generation lens protector 😊
When I get my N97, I will be taking it apart and removing a piece from the blue lense protector to make it the same as the yellow N86 protector.
Good ..... and then you can come to Kent and do mine (i have cake)
Well, I rang back the Nokia Indifference point I went to last week and they've told me that they'll replace the lens cover for me...
So it'll do it again, but it's a start...

Be interested to hear how you get on Dave. At some point I suspect Nokia will silently introduce a revised cover. Until then, we lucky N97 owners will have to keep making visits to the Indifference point. At least it gets me out of the office!

I'm just relieved I didn't sell my n95... While my N97 is being "fixed" (i.e. having the same problem reintroduced) I'm being visited by my old reliable friend...
