    Upgrading today, few questions before I do so


    Right now I have Win7 Ultimate 64-bit.
    Last time I tried to upgrade to Win10 it couldn't verify my license key, and I kinda figured its due to how legit my key is. I may or may not have bought it and it may or may not be from "the bay".
    Anyway, my plan is to buy a Win7 pro key and use it for Windows 10 update. Is it possible to upgrade windows 7 ultimate to windows 10 pro? Should I downgrade my Windows 7 to Pro to match the Windows 10 version I'll have the key for?

    :)

  3. a few basic questions before I buy 5800 express

    a. It would depend if the format is compatible. You can use the included Ovi Suite though to convert your contacts and sync them into the phone.



    b. Yes, but it would cost you still as per network charges regarding data, which may be expensive. Also if you turn off A-GPS, I believe that it would be free, however you may have to wait for forever to get a fix, as mobile phones have pretty small GPS
    antennae and may have difficulties getting and maintaining fixes in certain places.



    c. I bought mine last June and no issues so far. Most issues have been with earlier batches. As a rule, I advice not to buy a symbian phone until at least 6 months after release due to both hardware and software issues. Its not just Nokia symbian phones.
    This includes those made by samsung and the most recent SE satio which has firmware issues as well from what I gather. Its a symbian thing.
