    I really need some good advice from you knowledgeable people out there. I am currently using a very basic unit, the 3510. I bought it to tide me over. I am very interested in getting a new handset and would like as many of the following as possible.
    1. Check email. Web based https and or POP3.
    2. Tri mode so I can use it in North America.
    3. Easy to use with a decent display.
    4. Not too big or heavy.
    5. Open and edit email attachments if possible. (Word, excel, powerpoint, .pdf)
    6. Decent battery life.
    7. Not horrendously expensive.
    8. Synchronise with Outlook on the PC.
    9. Bluetooth.
    10. 802.11

    While I know that there probably isn't any phone out there that will fit the bill, I want to get as close as possible. I haven't put them in order either but they are all fairly important.
    I thought about the XDA but it seems to have limitations in many areas and isn't the best in battery life and size/weight.
    Thanks, iwb.

    I really needed to get a phone so I bought a SonyEricsson T68i today. I haven't spent much time with it yet but I think it is the best I could have done for E200 at the moment. I like the sound of the P800 but it will be a while before it is available in Ireland on a network.
    Thanks for the help.
