...it appears the screen might be a bit, ermmm, broke
I have dropped it once. Enough to put scratches on it the back, but it was fine for a while after that. But all of sudden, when you put too much pressure on the screen it'll start flashing with loads of lines over it.
I did think it was a software issue. As the phone can be fine then when I go on the Trainline app, it starts flickering - it's as if it's something to do with a brightness. However I just did a software reset to no avail, it is still continuing.
Looks like I'll be phoning NokiaDirect.co.uk on Monday. This can happen on any phone though, right?

Drop an iPhone and you'll be lucky not to get bloody fingers

Yeah got insurance.
The only thing that makes me think it wasn't the drop is the fact I dropped it about 1 month ago but this has only been happening about 10 days.

Update. Took it to a Nokia Care Point in Bedford today. They've inspected it already and phoned me. No mention of damage. Needs to go off for a complete new screen. So will be going to Nokia. All done under warranty.
So back on the old faithful E51. It's awesome.

Ive just sent my n900 back to them. Bought the insurance through nokia-direct when i bought the phone - Load if shit.
Im canceling my insurance and getting it with vodafone, that way when it does break, they will just bring me a new one with out asking!
