I'm a fan of both SE and Nokia. In our household we have eleven phones that are all still in use (we've almost never sold ours):
SE: T65, T610, K700, two K750, and K510
Nokia CDMA: 6235, 6155, 6275
Nokia GSM: E50
Moto: E398 and Pink V3 (snapped by a pickpocket few months ago from our daughter)
I used to think that Nokia's especially in the low to mid-end range are overpriced, have less features compared to the other brands in the same price range, and rather unfriendly UI. Two phones from Nokia have changed my opinion about the brand entirely: 6275i with built-in gps receiver, and recently bought E50: a low priced, features packed, DIY firmware upgradeable, reasonably fast, stable, versatile UI, spacious 70MB internal memory (more than N93i) with microSD slot, light and thin symbian 9.1 phone (only 1 g heavier than K750). The power of the symbian phone to do nifty things like transforming a phone into a webcam via bluetooth, read aloud inbox messages in my native language (Indonesian) while doing other tasks, watching high quality movies (xvid+mp3 encoded avi) created by smartmovie, turn the phone as answering machine, just to mention a few, trully amazes me. And I'm just getting to know about symbian in less than a week...
It seems that the empires has striked back, and before the return of the sneeric (SNE and ERIC), I'll stay in the grey side..

@londonlad - sorry: obviously, I didn't address you either (just as Dogmann didn't...) - you are a treoman in truth, so it wouldn't make SEnSE...

Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering...
Remember, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny
hehe, only joking

E65 is a great phone, relatively cheap, and has all the features in the book

I have started using SE mostlyl due to their clean and nice designs and nice menu structure (When I deal with Nokia, it just feels ackward and not so user friendly)
But when I consider getting a new phone, I would like something that is better than the one I currently have (ie w810i). So I would like some kind of operating system, wifi and 3G. And only choice looks like p990i, which I can t seem to get a hold of. Even for a top end product like that SE, did include EDGE and 3G together.
I am sure there will be some nice announcements on MAy 8th, but the date of announcement and date of realse can be far apart. So I might go for Nokia, unfortunately.

... anger if undiagnosed can also lead to fear and than turn straight into hatred...
and it's true, mr jedi

hehe. I'll be tasting the darkside myself in a few days, I'm trading an N70 for some work I've done for a cust, so it'll be interesting to pull that apart, inspect, interogate, and tweak something from the dark side!
Aparrently it has lot's of problems, but sounds like nothing a master reset or firmware flash won't fix.
Should be interesting.
But my K will remain my faithful loyal companion, the N70 will just be a ho to distract me for a few weeks

u didnt choose the best of phones to test. choose a E60 which is very cheap, and you'll forget what the K750 looks like, unless ofcourse if you decide to dig up its grave

Hi Max,
Although the N70 is what got me hooked on S60 it is only 2nd Edition and really can't be compared with S60 3rd Edition the speed difference between them is huge IMO.
