Hi all,
since my P910i stopped synching with outlook i have returned to Nokia first a N70 running the latest FW and have had no crashes or freezes but the menus and apps are slow to open plus if you have a Yahoo e-mail account you have push e-mail that works faultlessly. I now have a N73 (less than 48hrs) huge bright screen and all the menus and apps open really fast music player and stereo speakers are very good and the camera is awesome IMO.

I was going to get a K800i but like my sig says I couldn't wait and instead went for an N70...nice phone to look at but the menus are slow. Otherwise the camera is reasonable, not quite as good as a K750 but still reasonable- actually quite better then my K700.
I love S60 and it's huge software library.

yeh the N70 would have to be my choice if i hadnt picked up a Nokia N73 before lol...
Dont go for an N73 if u want loads of software as it runs Series 60 3rd Edition and there is hardly anything exciting software wise for it at the moment!!!
If u want software stick to the N70 or earlier...

If you really want Symbian, then by all means go for the N70, but the K800 beats it in everything else.

What is really attractive with the N70 is the possibility of running a C64 emulator. It can do this because it has Symbian OS, and Frodo is available for the Symbian OS. K800 can only run J2ME stuff, and Frodo is not ported to J2ME.
But look what we found now...
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jmec64/
A C64 emulator for J2ME, which in theory should run on the K800. I have just tested it on my W800i, and it runs very very very sloooooow, but it runs. So if the K800 is much faster than the W800, then maybe it'll work.
Anyone out there with
- a SE K800
- love for C64
- little experience with jar files
then try the JMEC64 project on your phone, and tell us how it works.
Here is a JAR file with the needed ROM files and the game FIREANT:
http://www.dewfall.dk/midp/JMEC64-0.9.7-bin.jar (146kb)
That would definitely make the K800 first choice, but there would have to be some power in the K800 for the emulator to run ok.

We’ve now had a chance to try out both the N70 and the K800, and she’s made a decision. Like BobaFett says, it’s really important to find out how it feels at usage.
It will be the K800 because, like shaliron says, the K800 certainly does beat the N70 in everything but the Symbian OS. We think the K800 has better controls and menu-system. And like Dogmann and brix25 says, the menus and apps open slow on the N70. The camera-slider on the N70 opens too easy in your pocket, which we also read on some other forum. The navigation-buttons (and buttons in general) are way too small on the N70, while the joystick on the K800 was really nice. I have personally never had any problems with the joystick solution on the SE phones. I’ve been using those ever since the T68i, but I know many people hate joystick-navigation. I just want to say that it’s easy to see that SE has significantly improved the joystick on the K800 compared to earlier models (though I’ve never had any problems with earlier models either). And finally, the K800 simply looks better and has an impressive screen.
We also tested the JMEC64 on the K800, which unfortunately doesn’t run fast enough, though much faster than on my W800i. So she’ll have to do without a C64 emulator for now.
Thanks for all help and feedback.

Consider an N71. Almost same price, but a much better screen and camera

i wasnt really amazed of the clashall idea. next to it n71 runs the new symbian os, so not that many apps for it as for the n70
