I own a Nokia 5610 XpressMusic phone (Product Code:0564905 and IMEI:358652018363693) that I purchased in July. Last month, my phone started behaving strangely (inverted screen, weird colors) and then it shut off, after which I was never able to turn it on again. After 2 days, I turned it in at the Nokia Care Centre (Rocky Agencies, Anna Salai, Chennai) where they examined the phone and said I had to change a component (Flexi cable) which would not be covered by the warranty and cost 3000 rupees. I did a bit of searching on the Net and came across that exact component on sale on an Electronics website (http://cellular-tools.biz/? page_id=3&category=3&product_id=3). Although the website quotes the price in Indonesian currency, a rough conversion throws up around 1000 Indian rupees. The price quoted by the Nokia Care Centre is completely atrocious. I hope Nokia owns up to this situation (probably faced by a lot of Nokia owners) and does something concrete about it.
