@dogmann,
when i am getting off a plane i'd like to swap sim cards the conventional way without feeling handicapped just because i don't have a paper clip.
how come apple did not include a paper clip with the accessories in the box?
the manufacturer is supposed to provide in the box everything needed to make the phone ready to make a call.
apple should put a sticker on the box of the i phone saying "paper clip not provided".
if anyone is planning on gifting an i phone to the lady, skip the rose & instead get hold of a paper clip.
i personally don't see any point of bluetooth if i can't exchange data via bluetooth.
i guess that's why they call apple the forbidden fruit.
why was the i phone unsuitable for you?

Well as is said the changing Sim cards was not a factor for me neither was the lack of Bluetooth functionality as i only use it for a handsfree Headset. I don't do SMS's if i can help it and have never sent an MMS either so neither of those mattered to me either.

The simple reason was i just couldn't get used to using a Touch screen again and found it slow and annoying compared to a full qwerty. I also really missed my large 4" screen, take a look at my E90 V200 review for some screen shots of just how much and how clear the information is displayed in the Web browser and other apps.

The iPhone is a very well built quality device and if it offers what some one wants then is perfect for them. But even the Touch S60 UI is not really of any interest to me as i just prefer non touch screen devices now and will find it hard to downsize to any device with a smaller screen then my E90's.

Which is why currently there is nothing that has my attention either released or coming soon and it looks like my E90 will last me until it's replacement arrives especially as this last firmware has really improved it's performance yet again.

@dogmann,
you did find the i phone's stupid kinetic srolling slower than the e90's qwerty keyboard.
you are aware that the i phone does have sms & mms issues on various networks.
you do agree that it is practically impossible to swap sim cards in an i phone without a pin/paper clip.
you are aware that with the i phone you cannot send data via bluetooth.
you did get rid of the i phone & buy an e90.
what i understand is that the i phone can't do what some low end series 40 phones can do with ease.
i think the i phone is just an over hyped flop.

I would be *very* surprised to see Nokia name any product to start with an "i" like this

it would be a 1st if nokia gave the phone an actual name.
nokia prefers giving the phone an alphanumeric identity.

Nokia firms up touchscreen phone plans

"Volume market" and mid-market. It seems Nokia is testing the waters first or they're not quite ready with their touchscreen UI.

Actually, I'd say it's the opposite. You don't offer something that's not quite ready or "test the waters" in a volume market, to lots of clueless people. Makes no sense.

If they wanted to test experimental stuff, they'd do some crazy high-end device that would appeal only to people that like experimental stuff and collect their feedback to polish the UI for the mass-market afterwards...
