but if we limited the voting to SE phones, wouldn't it get boring after a bit? after all, look how many people are moaning at SE's 'lack of innovation' over the past year? I'd rather have a complete view of the market, then vote for some phone I don't have any real feelings towards.
on a note, I've edited the categories in the first post. please have a look and let me know of any comments and suggestions? I would be pleased if the moderators chip in too with your thoughts regarding this idea. thanks

If we broke it down into categories, it'd be easy just to plug everything into an excel spreadsheet and splew out the results. I do like the idea though, although I think you would have to use categories like the ones on bodums first post, otherwise like every other comparison thread it would just end up in a mass brawl with no real point nor ending.
Keep it simple > have maybe 6 or 7 categories, then two votes each for each category, add up all the numbers and stick them into some tables and graphs. (Although in the major catrgories, maybe a sub-vote might be best to reduce it to a final multiple choice, otherwise ther'll be far too many entrants). Then like bodum said each major manufacturer has a category.

yes, I was thinking we have a thread for the main poll, where people can just vote their choices. discussions and everything else could go into a separate thread, probably the 'mass brawl' thread

. I was hoping for more support from the moderators though, since I could see a situation where some people would post randomly, double post, and so forth. then a chosen moderator could move posts or delete them.

Best Multimedia should really be a phone that is capable of doing all types of media (music, camera, video, streaming etc) well in all aspects, hence the name MULTImedia, rather than solomedia for example.
W900i comes pretty close for that one really.

maybe we could see about having just a simple web page on the esato server that is updated and people put their votes into that using some sort of online interface, then a mass brawl thread (or even a seperate forum) for people to discuss the outcomes
that way it would be much easier to manage the votes, and there would be less chance of votes being input incorrectly or people double-voting.
It probably would take a reasonably long time to put together though. Maybe some time after my exams i might experiment with some options for it? Unless someone else wants to or has a better idea. I think with a seperate web page for it the stress on the forum would be massively reduced, which could be one of the things admins might be worried about?

the main page does have a poll thingie, but I don't really see it as being an active part of the site. what makes Esato what it is, is right here. it's the forum, that's what most people come for. and I would think that a poll right here in the form of a thread would serve the purpose well. you were saying about 'stress' on the forum? I'm sorry, but I'm not quite well-versed with how forums are run, care to explain on that one?
and for a poll to succeed, we do need the help of one or two moderators, plus some senior members. anyone else think this is a good idea?

by stress on the forum i meant a lot of people accessing the same thread all at once, as im sure it would attract a lot of attention from off the forum too
i didnt mean make it indipendant of the forum, i just thought that instead of manually having to update posts, and people having to post their votes, it would be easier to have an automated system, and would keep the forum free for discussion regarding the results
