Some are correct some are not. Let me list the problems of that list to my problems in order of more annoyance!
1. Occasional clicking/cracking sound can be heard from the back speaker on the phones released for south Europe. However if you try running mp3/video it instantly dissapears, but it starts again as soon as the song/video stops playback. This can be heard on the headphones too.
I HEAR ALL DAY THIS CLICK -"CLICK" ......."CLICK"....."CLICK"
2. Alarm is ringing on Saturday and does not on Monday with settings: "Working days only(Mon-Fri)" and "Sunday" as starting day of the week.
REALISED ABOUT THIS BEFORE 2 WEEKS!
3.Phone occasionally stops receiving incoming calls and SMS but continue to display full-bar signal indicator with no error messages. Service is restored (ie. can start receiving calls again) when phone is restarted. Seems identical to P990 R6D23 known bug 56.
HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR 3 WEEKS!!
4. Alarm Low Volume/Ascending Short Tone: SE decided to change the way alarm behaves. It should be made into option. On R5, the Alarm was flat (volume flat at the level set by user). However, it's now changed into ascending and short bursts, which means if a longer mp3 file is selected, the volume will never get to max at the level set by user
GOT LATE TO WORK 3 DAYS IN A ROW FOR THIS THING!
5. Contact picture resolution is fuzzy due to bad compresion.
6. If the Screensaver starts in Edit-Mode (e.g. SMS) and you unlock the phone again, the input method is set to "Numbers" for me. Reproduceable.
VERY VERY VERY VERY NOT-USER FRIENDLY!
7. Key locked screen does not show status on missed call or unread sms. When the phone is locked and the screen is off, the only way to turn the screen back is to press any key. After pressing any key, the Key locked screen would read "To unlock: Press...". However, the screen does not shows the status of missed call or unread sms and it is necessary to unlock the phone to check for missed call and unread sms
THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FROM THE VERY FIRST DAY I BOUGHT IT!
The above are my main problems from that page... The other ones or have not come up at all or i am not so bothered with. Of course i have not installed anything on the phone, and i have unistalled the games, so that might have helped the better usage of it...

Amazing! a new firmware for the M600? eh? hope it's true.
and for those who think there's not enough bug to summon a new firmware: why do you think you have to call up the task manager and kill (end-task) every time you wanted to close an application? why is there no simple exit option to click when you want close an open application?
i think this is one big bug that needs to be fix. or rather it's a flaw in the uiq implementation of the symbian os. i believe the flaw is not on the symbian os itself because nokia phones that uses the same version of this os does not have this problem. you just click 'exit' and the program closes, releasing chunks of memory it utilises. no (or minimal) memory leaks.
yes, memory leaks are the biggest bug/flaw in uiq phones. it's like the 'three-finger-salute' (ctrl-alt-del) on windows 95/98 era. you are supposed to use this function only as a last resort to kill an app when you can't normally close the app. closing apps this way have unpredictable results because parts of memory used by the killed app does't get released. use it too often, and your computer will become slower and slower till it crash, requiring a reboot.
now why do se thinks it's normal to kill a normally working app and cause memory leaks? kill, kill, kill and you just run out of precious memory.
don't we require a new firmware even only for this?
