experiences, impressions, of Nokia N75 with MobileSpeak

[Christopher Chaltain]

Yeah, I researched this and actually have collected the instructions and 
software I need to do this, but I haven't done it yet. I was waiting for 
AT&T's update to the N75's firmware, but unfortunately that update 
didn't seem to change much. I may do it over the holidays, but I'll 
still need to get the code from AT&T to unlock my N75. To be honest, I'm 
not sure I'm going to go down this path. It'll void my warrant tee with 
AT&T and force me to reinstall everything. Although there are definitely 
some things I like in Nokia's firmware over AT&T's firmware, I'm not 
sure it's worth the risk and effort, at least for me.
