It's handy to d/l stuff via WiFi at home, and then have something to read on the go without extra data charges. But why no Canadian news, AND WHAT'S WITH THE ADS?!!

Here in my country I get 50GB per month of bandwidth at HSDPA speeds for about 7 US Dollars a month. Is that considered cheap? In any case I can hardly use up 10GB, so things like Nokia Headlines help me get the most out of my plan.

@Hannes - which is why it should be a user setting. If you're in an area that doesn't offer cheap mobile bandwidth, you could easily disable it (perhaps disabled by default?)

Why Podcasting shouldn't automatically start downloading Podcasts at startup?
(a) Mobile bandwitdh is very, very expensive in most of the world. I only want Podcasting to download when I'm at a Wifi point.
(b) There was a bug where Podcasting would (intelligently) change the download location from memory card to phone memory if the memory card wasn't detected at startup. S60 does not operate well with big fat unfinished MP3s taking up space in main memory.

Personally I like it, but hate the menus. The 'settings' section is one of those ones where you don't know if it's showing you what the setting is currently, or what the setting will be when you select it. Horrible.
