So far the only convincing argument I have seen for NOT o/c the phone is Igor's statement because if you aren't prepared to believe a statement from a developer IN Nokia, then what single piece of written text on a screen would an end user who most likely hasn't got any direct contact with designing devices that make use of the processor believe?

However, one other thing still bugs me which has only really briefly been mentioned (but only in passing), if we can significantly reduce the lifetime of the processor by even simply running it at 550-600MHz all the time, then why when you connect the charger does it stop the scaling and keep the proc at the maximum 600MHz?

I don't know about anyone else but I charge my phone EVERY night and in normal usage realistically, twice a day..... that means my proc spends most of it's time at 600MHz (now 900MHz).....

This is the only thing that makes me feel it isn't so much of an issue otherwise when charging I would have thought perhaps they'd lock it to a lower frequency?
