Removing memory card from the Nokia E51 could be a daunting task. Why is it so? Firstly, the eject mechanism doesn’t eject the memory card enough for users to remove. Secondly, there is not enough clearance for users to have a good grip on the memory card to pull it out. I faced this problem as well and started to surf forums for answers – some of them suggested using a pen knife to lift the card up so that you can pull it out. Well, I certainly don’t wish to scratch my phone accidentally in the process of doing so.
I do understand that users won’t remove their memory card frequently but what if you have the need to? Especially if you are outside without a pen knife? For me I sticked some scotchtape to the end of the memory card so that I can use that to pull the memory card out after ejecting the memory card.

What I did
I cut out a small piece of tape and sticked it to the end of the memory card like those 3M’s file labels. If you don’t know, make the tape in to a “V” shape with the sticky side facing in, place the edge of your memory card between the two ends of the “V” shape and stick it. Make sure that it sticks tightly to your memory card.
And you would probably end up with something like this.

Now insert back your memory card and you would realize that you have something to grip on the next time you eject your memory card.

Yay! No more problems in removing memory card from E51
Just gotten my hands on Nokia E51! Always been wanting to change my handphone. Switched from N80 to N81 (8GB) and then now over to E51. I simply love the slimness of the phone!

The package

Check out the slim candybar profile!
The user interface is as fast as the N81. Wireless wise, both are pretty on par but I feel that E51 has a better range though. The shortcut keys on the keypad made my life a whole lot easier! I no longer have to arrange commonly access applications on my standby screen. I simply assign them to the one touch buttons! Hurray!
Busy installing softwares onto my new E51.

Ta daaaa. The box.

N81. Yes it is a slide phone.

The keypads underneath the screen.
CS4251′s exam was real terrible today. I didn’t know what I am writing for the exam paper. *Sweat*. What’s done is done.
On a happier note. Got a toy to console myself. The phone before this was a N80. At least it is an upgrade. The S60 interface is faster than my N80. The build is more sturdy and slimmer. Got to try the wireless in a PEAP environment. Hopefully it can connect to the network which the N800 fail to do so.
Bad point? The camera has been downgraded, it is only 2 megapixels now.

Just gotten my hands on an Internet Tablet, N800, from Nokia. I’ve imagined it to be the size of my Sony PSP but it is smaller when compared carefully.
Seems like N800 is the successor of N770. Don’t ask if what has been improved since the N770 days because I don’t know. I only have the N800 and not the N770! The package comes included with a 128MB memory card, pouch for holding the Internet Tablet, charger, ear piece and a couple of standard stuffs.
Size wise, I would leave it up for you to decide. Again, I’ve taken pictures of it beside a can of 330ml coke for comparison.

It definitely looks good isn’t it? But why isn’t there a place for me to attach a lanyard? I know it is light and I am definitely going to drop it when I am switching trains at the station
Gosh, this person must be working for D-Link
This is what people think when they see the NAS, network switch and DGL-4300. Like all consumers, I like to make sure that I spent my money on quality stuffs. After reading reviews, I feel that these equipments are good, hence I got it and blogged about it. Perhaps I should stop sharing the applications I have compiled and keep for my own use.
Gosh, this person must be working for Linksys
With the WRT54G in the category listing plus the fact that I got 2 equipment from the WRT54G family and spend time exploring OpenWRT packages on it doesn’t mean that I am working for Linksys.
Gosh, this person must be working for Nokia
I got the N80 and I just wish to share my findings.
