    T610?

    yeah definatley a Sony Ericsson T610 if you were thinking of a Nokia 8910i - better colour screen (size and resolution) on the T610, both with Bluetooh (Sony Ericsson's implementation being better of course...), you get a basic email client on the T610, it's tri-band and you have that integrated (fun) camera... that is if you can handle the new interface.. I prefer it to the 8910i's Series 30 interface though, plus it's been exactally a year from the 8910i announcement...

    It's a very square looking phone. Don't like it!

    have you seen one 'in the flesh'? When I opened the box on mine it was way smaller than I had expected by looking at pictures on the net.

    Yeah, they have them sim free in Tommys Toystore. A bit smaller than I thought but still very square. Although, saying that, I have a 7650 at the mo and it's pretty square too.

    Sorry Malico bit OT, but yeah what is the crack with that?
    Year old and its still "premium priced"?

    IS it THAT good ? or is it just based on its (albeit damn cool) looks?

    Get a nokia 6108. Very cool phone.

    I've one on the way, will prob use it for a week then stick it in the buyandsell for €400.

    Also gettin in a Nokia 3200 just to see if i can make my own covers for it.

    Had an 8910i very cool phone but i actaully preferred the 8910 i had before that.

    Currently have a t610. Great phone, best i've had in a while.

    but the best phone you can get at the moment is the Nokia 6600.
    Amazing phone. Might get a few in and flog them before xmas.

    I think i'm a phone junkie.

    amazing what a few days can do to your perception. Seriously considering getting the t610 now. €399 in Tommys Toy Superstore Sim Free. I know I could get it a bit cheaper online but it's worth the extra to be able to just go in and get it tomorrow.

    when the pics first came out i was a bit unsure as i liked the curves of the T68i and this looked a bit square - but at a demo of the handset it really looked the business - subtle curves - fantastic design and a great successor to the T68i - ended up getting one mayself :)

    there is an interview with the designer here if you interested:
