Brief review of the Nokia N79

Pros:
The N79 has all the core features of any other Nseries phone with only a few drawbacks.
~ GPS - works great. Usually gets a signal within a reasonable amount of time and keeps it once it get's it. Voice guided navigation is superb for a cell phone.
~ 3.5 mm jack & audio playback - media software is very clean, navi wheel makes scrolling through large playlist a breeze.
~ 5MP camera - works great.

Check out my flickr page for the rest of the pictures that I took with my N79 and uploaded directly from the phone. Note that those photos aren't even at the camera's full resolution.
~ FM transmitter - Works as well as stand alone units. I can play my music anywhere now; who doesn't have an FM radio?
~ Wifi - built in browser is great. Easily connected to my home WPA encrypted network and my school's WPA2 EAP-PEAP/MSCHAP v2 protected network. Screen size doesn't hinder browsing experience at all.
~ Symbian is by far the most common smart phone OS in the world, meaning there are a ton of dedicated S60 websites and 3rd party apps.

Cons:
~ When choosing the N79, you loose a little screen real estate when compared to the other high end Nseries devices (N85, 95 & N96).
~ Navi wheel doesn't work in every application. It's super useful to scroll through playlists. It doesn't work in some apps that have large lists to scroll through.

Other thoughts:
~ The POI database in Nokia Maps isn't great. I use Google maps mobile (which supports street view) to find locations while I'm in a wifi hot spot, save the location, then open Nokia Maps, and the saved POI automatically shows up. sweet.
~ The 3rd party apps are really sweet. All the google apps are available and can be used over wifi (unlike on Blackberries, which require a data connection). Do a google search for top S60 3rd ed apps, and you will be amazed. I use goosync to sync my google calendar with my phone (2 way sync works great). Then I use Best Profiles to automatically put my phone on silent when my calendar says I'm in a meeting. Best Profiles also changes my profile based on my GSM tower location. When I'm at home, it automatically turns on bluetooth and connects to my computer and syncs with nokia's software suite.
