Post by: Dowding on July 27, 2004, 09:45:41 AM: It's a shame Europe and the states don't see the Far East mobile phones. They are way ahead of anything launched over here - 3 megapixel camera phones etc.

Post by: SOB on July 27, 2004, 12:34:13 PM: I think the difference is that your pic shows the backlight on, and the one at phonescoop the backlight is off.

Post by: Nilsen on July 27, 2004, 12:37:02 PM: could be....but in my photo it almost looks like the keyb area is made of glass....like a touchscreen

Post by: SOB on July 27, 2004, 12:49:03 PM: Yeah, I guess it does. Hopefully it's not, 'cause that would suck. Tactile feedback is a must for the keys, unless you wanna have to stare at the phone anytime you make a call.

Post by: Nilsen on July 27, 2004, 01:00:26 PM: good point....but it does look :cool:

-edit- would prolly get slippery to if you have sweatty hands or have food on them. Would prevent dirt under keyb tho....

Post by: GRUNHERZ on July 27, 2004, 04:10:29 PM: How much onboard flash memory does it have? Because it doesnt seem to be able to take an SD/MMC card like my Motorola Mpx200.. Otherwise it looks awesome, I love the idea of a solid aluminum case.

One can only hope... I dont think phones will ever be as rugid as they used to be usnless you buy special "industrial" type phones.

My first cellphone back in 95 was a motorola startac or something. It could take a beating and so could my old ericsson 318. Phones these days are made to not last.

Price should be around 800€ which isn't bad if look what you got with it :)

Post by: Nilsen on July 30, 2004, 06:11:42 AM: Nokia needs to get the quality control back on track before i buy another phone from them. they used to be the best, now they are worse than SE was before sony joined ericsson.

Post by: Staga on July 30, 2004, 06:16:09 AM: No idea; right now I have 6310i, 7650 and 9210 (+earlier 9110i communicator) and haven't had any problems with any of them.
My only gripe right now is that I need to build myself a WLAN-network at home when 9500 becomes available...

Thats cheap...you get good wifi routers from 70$ and up.

Recent surveys here shows that Nokia phones are on the top of the statistics. The need the most repairs and have the highest numbers on DOA phones. Its a shamer really cause they used to be the best.
