In what part of my post did I say I was better??? Strange man?
The K700 is a couple of months away, the Sharp is here now, has been out for a month already! The K700's screen is only half as good, it doesn't have memory expansion, has a lesser camera, can only play a couple of mp3'd due to it having 32 mb of mem but only about 14mb free to the user, the list goes on. It is a nice phone, but the GX30 is still better.
I agree that the S700 could rival the GX30, similar screen 1.3 mp camera, but this phone is 6 months away. The GX30 will be 7 / 8 months old by then.
Sharp are ahead of the game, why? Because they have a massive pedigree in the far east, wolrdwide for that matter now! Asia is a place that have 2mp camera phones already made by Sharp amongst others, they would laugh at our technology if they came to europe.
Sharp is the only company bringing us remotely in line with them and they deserve to be respected for that.
In reply to an earlier question, the GX32 is out now, a non branded alternative to the GX30, so you can put any sim into it!

The phone is good mate, for the casual user its the best out there, does everything well.
Only thing that it doesn't have menu wise that SE has is music dj. But the composer on it is apparently v.powerfull, just more difficult to use.

sharp is ahead of the game in terms of basic functions paked with features.
the gx30/32 is loaded with everything the average person would want.. and it's quad band.
better than any current phone out there in gsm i'd have to say yes. (not including pda phones etc etc)
the menu is decent similar to the SE interface. but very expensive and the price doesn't seem to drop like other phones.
i can't wait to ge one...

In the Uk the GX30 sim free is down to £319.99. On a Vodafone contract direct the price has just dropped to £30 on a 400 minute talkplan, but you can also get it from many websites for free, I did
I think that they have done this to bring its price more in line with the other manufacturers handsets, more of a price for the mass market

it really is a nice looking phone and easily one of the best mid range phones out there and i do agree se has nothing to compete with it at present
a few people have mentioned what i would call the down side and that been i dont want to be on vodaphone and i dont buy sim free as i find phones cheaper on contracts
also 1 phone doesnt make a good company but its a big step in the right direction
i have played with a gx20 and that was a great phone and easy to use and i use a t610 and 6310 and found no problems with menus etc
someone mentioned about service all i would say on that as i dont know what sharp are like is
yes se after service in terms of firmware upgrades is very good but if the product is right out of the box you shouldnt need them
lets be honest the speed of sms and menus should be right from the start you should nt need to go to a service centre to get an upgrade for the basics
