Personally I have always preferred non-flip phones, but if you want to take advantage of camera phones etc. you need a nice big screen (I am sorry but T68i/Communicam is crap - thats why I returned my communicam straight away).

There are only two ways to have a big screen on a phone

1) Make the whole phone a screen (e.g. P800)
2) Make a flip phone (e.g. Sharp GX-10)

I think the reason that the Japanese prefer flip phones is that i-Mode has provided rich graphics and photos much longer than in the European market.

Well, the P800 could count as a flip-phone... =)

....Yeah, I hope so. Clam-shell phones are the way of the future! The growing need for bigger screens in small devices will create the need for this form factor. I predict that in two years all high-end cellphones will be made this way.

I don't see how flip-phones will succeed when more and more normal phones have good screens and attractive design (T68, 7210, etc)

I have not seen one attractive design of a flip-phone yet; except for this one.

Well, they might have OK screens for now, but they are too small to fit into tomorrows standards. I'm quite positive that the clam-shell/flip design is the way of the future when it comes to mobile phones.

...And if you don't think clam-shell/flip phones will have attractive designs, take a look at the japanese market. Lots of great-looking handsets out there! And personally I think my Samsung S100 is the best-looking phone I've ever laid my hands on!!!

JB>

the screens on the T68 and 7210 are tiny - which is fine for phone functions - but limiting for the multimedia functions that phones are evolving toward.

I think Raven is right, in 2 years time flip phones will be very popular.

PS

What is the difference between the flip phone on your link and any other flip phone?
