i dunno, i figured out the battery cover on the 3390 pretty quick....its
just a matter of some advanced mechanical engineering and you have it,!
Now the first time i had the phone, not having experience with nokias, the
on/off button baffled me for quite a while.
That whole, holding it for 5 seconds, releasing and then waiting for it to
turn on is just odd...i guess so it doesn't get accidentally turned on in
yer pocket or something.
