great review, thanks a lot!

i have a remaining question though: does it support the playback of mp3/ogg/aac+ streams like shoutcast or oddcast?

Hi daikan, sorry to take so long to reply!

You can install a free S60 application on the 6290 which lets you use Shoutcast.

It's called S60 Internet Radio and you can get it here:
