Is Nokia getting sloppy with its handset production, or is the entire list of faulty components just a bad dream? As if the battery issue was not enough, Nokia E90 seems to come with several other drawbacks, some of them serious enough to end

Many newly Nokia E90 Communicator owners have complained about microphone problems and scratches on the internal screen due to the keyboard. Such situations must have been overlooked in the development stage, as they are actually the result of minor slips.
