Siemens vs Nokia

    For years I have had Nokia phones, however for a change I got a Siemens S45 last April and have been amazed by it. Maybe it's just me, but I think it's miles better that a Nokia phone. You can create your own shortcuts, store all sorts of files (useable memory of 0.5 mb), perform your own software upgrades with the cable that comes supplied with the phone etc. Does anyone else have an S45, and if so I'm curious to know how you think it compares to a Nokia (or other leading brands).
    Just thought I'd share this with you!!

    I'm a big fan of Siemens' phones, bar the C45 <- yuk! :)

    Nokia phones are alright but I can't even begin to emphasise how much I *hate* the physical clicking noises off the keys. With Siemens' phones, it's all nice, rubbery & silent. Bless :)

    yes the first thing i do with my nokia is to turn of the key clicking noises.
    and its so easy to turn of. imagine getting annoyed by something that so easy to turn off.....

    anyway, i only use nokia because to be honest ive always hated all the others interfaces. and after using a nokia for so long, using it second nature to me.
    besides, i think they just make nice phones.
    i wub my little 8850.

    check that out, a mate of mine in siemens tech put in new LED's to my SL45, looks fairly savage!!
    he also updated the software so it would accept a 128Mb MMC so thats about 2hrs of excelent quality music!!
    would not swap it for any nokia!!!

    PS thats not my actual fone but mine looks the exact same!!

    I am infact talking about the innocuous clicking sound which comes from the phone itself when you depress the keys, not the tones coming from the speaker.

    Imagine getting a rise out of being perpetually sarcastic...

    True, that annoys me about the Nokia's as well, that and I find the call quality seems better on Siemens

    Don't get me started on HIM again :-D
