Would anyone out there be kind enough to tell me whether the latest Netbook OS offers any improvements to Word and Sheet? In particular, whether the new OS is any better as far as compatibility with Microsoft Word/Excel is concerned? Otherwise, there really is no point in my upgrading my 7!

The native EPOC applications were not changed in any way in the version 158 of the netBook OS.

The advantages of it lie in other areas - considerable speed improvement over the S7, the potential for larger memory, WiFi connectivity and version 5.14 of the Opera web browser included, to name but a few!

To date I haven't heard of anyone who has performed the upgrade and didn't think it was well worth while. :cool:

On the upgrade, does anyone know if it is possible to get new Netbook stickers, etc., to replace the Series 7 ones on my current 7?
