Hi,
I'm looking for an se 3g phone that I will use as a modem, and I need a fast modem (not just classes like in gprs, but real fast in data transfer).
Also since I'll use this phone as a 24/7 modem, I need a phone that is really strong enough to charge and online 24/7 also.

I do not need fancy features. Since I will use this phone as modem only.
I'm not looking for a 3g modem (pcmcia, usb, etc) since I might sometimes take this phone out for voice calls.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Andy

meaning you'll have to charge the phone a lot/all the time.
P990i is the most advanced and gives you a nice big screen.
K800 does the job aswell, as does the W850/Z610 and others.

I don't really need big screen, since I'll connect the phone to computer,
and I goes online using my pc, not phone.
So I really need a fast and strong one, for 24/7 charging and online.

Well i'm pretty sure no phone available at present would last 24/7 without a charge, maybe upto 3 hrs using 3G or more depending on phone etc.

Most phones now can be plugged in and used as a modem.

Since your laptop won't last 24hrs on a charge then i'd suggest plugging the phone in as well lol.

K800 and others as quoted above.

My phone will always be charging, and the computer is a pc, not a notebook. so both of them will online 24/7.
What I meant was, which se 3g phone that will not broke too soon if I use it for online 24/7 and charge it all the time.
Currently I'm using T68i for gprs and it last more than 2 years without problems. it is continuesly online 24/7 and charging 24/7 as well.
But since now I'm able to use faster 3g, I need to change the to 3g enabled one.

So K610/618 would be the best choice ?
Is it will last longer for charging and online 24/7 ?

I have an unlimited flat rate gprs/3g connection (and cheap though), that's why my computer (server, actually) online 24/7 using this phone as a router.

Just wonder, will Z610 as strong as K610/618 ?

k610 has the generic block form factor & so its easy to handle, especially wen u need to look in2 d main display...

z610 has classy looks though...
