    Nokia 5800 V30, Important Features I discovered other than the ones already said :
    1. Volume may be adjusted while playing music by touchscreen.
    2. Scroll through the Contact list and music files one by one by touching the screen up and down and not by pulling scrollbar which used to run too fast.
