Yeah i remember those. I actually had a 7650 aswell, bloody solid phone! As for funky designs though I think the K850 could well fall into a quirky esque category dont you think? So far everyone who has held one has mentioned at least once that it attracts fingerprints like a magnet.

Yeah im sure all K850 fans are hoping this aswell. But my question is why would Eldar make such a comment unless he had information otherwise?
People keep saying "SE wouldnt do this ect" but as someone pointed out look how they handled the P990 situation. It could have potentialy been one of the best phones that year but instead it became a horror story. All im saying is dont hold your breath and especially after SE trying to trick people with those fake sample pics it seems even more realistic that it wont be improved.

Well i donīt see it quite dark as that. The "german pictures affair" is probably one or a few peoples misstake. You donīt really think that SE as a company and their CEO:s would try to pull something like that?
And about the P990- that was then and now is now (see my earlier post)

The k850i will have record sales due to its marketability
"Wow, a 5MP camera! Cybershot! Cool!"
Not exactly what a phone afficianado is looking for. Different marketing strategy, is all...

I do consider myself a "phone afficianado" and I will buy this phone. Even if the camera is marginally better than the K790, I'll be very happy with it. I have a DSLR for high quality shots, I need something small to take party pictures, and I have to have HSDPA. Currently I"m using an HTC TyTN in the form of a Cingular 8525 and I find it clunky at best, but it does get me on the web with VERY high speed and it does get me my corporate email so it serves a purpose. I'm just tired of the weight of it and can't wait to get my hands on the K850.
It's kind of sad - right now I'm using a brick of a phone like a mentioned so that I can travel world wide (quad-band + tri-band 3g) and I have purchased a Nikon s50c so that I can take party pictures. If only SE could have released this phone some 4 months earlier I would have saved myself a lot of money and bulk to carry
PS: I just re-read Eldar's review and comparison to the n95 and I can't figure out what crack people here are smoking for complaining about the K850's photo quality ESPECIALLY when comparing it the n95!? If you want to make every subject you photograph look like it's made out of shiny plastic - go for the n95 - no doubt you'll get the results you're looking for! I'm VERY pleased with 90% of the pictures taken with the k850 that I have seen so far. There are still some shots out there that worry me a bit, such as the ones that show some chromatic aberration but it's definitely not present in all shots.

Normally you would say that Nokias colour algorithm makes the pictures look too surreal and the colours too boosted but for soem reason all the K850 pics looks slightly washed out and lack colour.

I too had a Nokia 7650, last Nokia phone I will ever own as it spent more time being sent away for repair then in my pocket.
7650 best use is as a paperweight as its useless as a phone / camera or anything else it is meant to be, awful phone!
