I can't speak about that product exactly, however I've unfortunately had no
shortage of experience with a bunch of Nokia products. The company
apparently doesn't have one employee capable of resolving technical problems
& their warranty is something of a (bad) joke. The most recent issue I've
issue involved a software product that was purchased by a client based on
information provided at an official Nokia website.

After many hours attempting to get the thing to work we contacted the
Australian support number (about 10 times in fact) before the issue was
referred to Finland. It took another 4 months / 50 odd emails / 50 odd phone
calls to get a response "We can't get it to work either so you'd best return
the thing for credit" (We'd done that months previously)

I've had numerous previous experience with warranty claims on Nokia products
... to cut a long story short I've never used one Nokia product that
performed adequately & consequently I wouldn't recommend Nokia products to
my worst enemy.
