Flashing the mobile gives you the supposed benifit of more up to date software, you can cut out taking it to nokia shop which may charge you if the phone is out of warranty.

You can pay between £30 and £250 for flashing equipment, the more expensive units have greater reliabilty plus more support, which is often useful. These tend to suit commercial applications.

The cheaper dongle based flashing devices are cheap and do the job, but you get what you pay for in the end ;)

As for finding out more information, youve started in the right place! just browse the forum a bit, have read :D
