Err.. I thought G705 was compared with a Nokia in that review?
Notice the size and the weight on G705 for the same 2.4" screen with wifi, GPS, HSPDA and lower price? Its not bad at all. Both colors sold out for a whole week in Singapore. Heard distributor is rushing fresh shipment.

@islandprd: I agree with you completely, my previous post was because I read the review and saw that it was compared to a Nokia (that's not even released yet).

I dont own E66, but the G705 HSDPA is faster than N958GB. I get a bursting of 5-6mbs as modem connection to my laptop while N958GB is less than half. Awesome

@islandprd: Now that's interesting, I always thought N95 8GB is better hardware-wise. Especially since it comes from a totally different class.

Maybe the usb speed on N958GB is slower? Overall download speed is not much diff. The problem with hsdpa 7.2mpbs is still limited to certain areas here, mostly still on older 3.6mbps.

Am I understanding this right? You're saying that the G705 is a 7.2 Mbps capable device?!?

Yes, but go easy now
Well, it is not super of everything but certainly not bad either especially for the price. It has some advantages and disadvantages.
Pretty much when people ask me in pm this is what I answer:
G705 and N958GB are in diff league.
+ of N958GB:
S60 good software support.
Free downloadable GPS map for walkabout (navigation is payable).
Bigger screen
Clock screen saver
Better cam 5mp
Better video
Better a/v support
+ of G705
Relatively faster UI and less complicated than S60.
User friendly UI, smart dialing, smart texting, good folder handling and flashy themes.
Torch
Lighter and slimmer
Better sound (to my ear using hpm77)
Cheaper but good features
Conclusion:
For a easy usage go for G705. For multimedia go for N95 8GB

@islandprd: I'm just unlucky to live with a carrier whose HSDPA signal reception sucks. Lol
