well its X-mas so you've got a good excuse to drink.
to be honest i like samsung phones aswell, i was very tempted by the E700. a friend let me use his one for a few days. i was really borred with it, except from the design and the flash OLED screen theres nothing special about that phone. the new E720 looks nice aswell, but its boring.
i can only hope that SE would make such a nice phone.

Let me get this straight... you want SE to make a nice boring phone??
Wouldn´t it be easier to buy the Samsung in the first place then, because IMO they are nice for two hours, then you have explored what there is to explore in them *and found out that there is bugger all you can change/tweak/configure yourself*?

no no, i want SE to make phones like they do, with some new design touches, samsung is good at designing so why not use a few of those designs in SE phones.

ahh - feeling lucid now.
yeh SE maybe should go after a new design. i think they have gone a bit astray with making three similarly looking K series phones. why three? why even bring out the K500 when the K300 is gonna be just as good. Seems a little odd to me. maybe in 2005 we will see a new series i reckon a Q - series.

i think that the new series is going to be Cxxx
S900 will see on cebit
the K300 isn't a good idea. the K500 is already out and at a good price.
the K300 just has another design and smaller screen (and made by Arima so it could be unstable).
the only reason to bring out a K300 is to get more marketshare, to have a phone with cam for 100euro during the summer sales.

I have always liked Samsung, so I might be a little biased, and I haven't actually seen a K700, but I have the D500, and I love it. Very nice camera, nice and small. Great MP3 player (although I'm still trying to find out how to get a playlist to play continuously). I've used irda without any problems???? Bluetooth is great, too.
IMO, you can't go wrong with the D500. Anyone need info on the D500?

Agreed. D500 > K700i .
more Stable and better camera and better reception than k700.

It isn't fair comparing a K700 to a D500

The D500 is a beauty. It could have been an Ericsson. Impressive phone. It is the only non-SE that I would really want and it makes me question my loyalty to SE severely (if I had the budget, would I really not buy this phone which is without a doubt outstanding in design and function because it is not an SE? How sad would that be?).
(For the OP choosing a phone: do not let yourself be guided by vague so called problems or rough categorisations such as 'bad UI' or 'has better reception than' or 'IRda doesn't work' or 'is not stable' etcetera; usually these are only assumptions and have little to do with a true comparison or testing and only serve the private purpose of cognitive dissonance reduction.)
After more reading, the D500 has some strong points: powerful battery, 92 MB memory, 1.3MP cam, mini-usb and the interface looks ok - although I must admit I still prefer the look of SE.
