• FAST. This thing is fast. Messaging flies, and so is Web surfing. But where it really shines is when I do multi-tasking. IE, do web surfing while listening to radio (ironically. iPod for music~), at the same time answer a call, during the call go check up a number in Contacts, maybe even send a message.(Browser and radio all running in background) Then hung up the phone and go on Internet. It never slows down. Just as fast as running a single program (or even faster) on my previous phones.
• I can move icons around. I can create folders, and folders within folders. I can organize the main menu any way I want(sans Renaming). It feels just like a regular folder on a computer. 
• YES, the Symbian system IS like (a simplified) Computer.
• Again, kudos to the multi-tasking mechanism.
• The screen is HUGE! That monster is able to display 20 lines of text when web browsing.
• The Home screen is great. It shows my daily schedule set in Calender. And there are 8 customizable icons to access to apps within few presses away.

Where it stinks:

• N76 crashes A LOT. 2-3 times a day. And that's after a reset(even more before). Reminds me of (you guess?) WINDOWS! WTH.
• The UI font is not so elegant.

Overall, the N76 is a great phone. Except for the crashes, everything (mostly) works.

Rating: /

Update: After applying the firmware 20.0.041, the phone NEVER crashes again. Dank Gott!

Just a partial.
