Hi,

A little off your topic, but could you tell me if that phone has a capacitive or resistive type touch screen on it? I head Nokia were supposed to be changing the 5800 to the capacitive type becuase the resistives weren't as smooth in operation.

Thanks

Google really is your friend, you'd have your answer in about 2 seconds. But yes it's resistive, and no, it will not be "upgraded" to a capacitive screen. They have however learned from their mistakes and released the X6, which has a capacitive screen, although it's very expensive for what it is.

More like a 'press really hard' screen and then again and again and again...
