Just got rid of a N6600 because I had 6 replacements in two months with 2
versions of software, so Nokias don't test there software either.

Yup, thats the first thing you see when starting up a new K700. Its only a
matter of time before you get "Control", "Alt" and "Delete" keys included on
the keypad

The only issue we are having now is the length of battery charge.

Do the new batteries have a "memory"?

They will certainly need a few charge / discharge cycles before reaching
their full capacity, though other factors like leaving bluetooth on (if
availiable) and the backlight duration will affect life also.

Handsets costs, on average, are also much less than they used to be.
Tradeoff perhaps?

Perhaps... But phones are more complex nowadays - so a higher level of
testing is probably needed nowadays...
