Bookmark topic
I am looking for:
'bar' form factor (not clamshell, not slider, not 'twister')
decent photos (preferrably MegaPixel)
video capabilities
MP3 player (& FM radio ideally)
external memory (to take advantage of video & MP3 functionality)
Bluetooth, and must be Apple iSync compatible
large hi-res screen (65k colours)
I can't believe that I can't meet these requirements in any available phone, I must have missed something!!
My last 3 phones have been SE and I feel they have been the best available at the time, especially the T610. But I want my next phone to have some significant improvement in features over my current one (SE Z600).
I have looked at and dismissed the following:
SE K700 - no expandable memory for MP3 and video files
SE S700 - unpleasant form factor
SE P910 - stylus driven interface, unremarkable camera, would be paying for more of a device than I need
Nokia 7610 - no Apple iSync support (but otherwise perfect, if a little large)
Nokia 6230 - tiny screen (but meets almost all other requirements)
Siemens S65 - no MP3 support, poor resolution screen (for it's size)
The device I'm closest to at the moment is the Sendo X, but I think the screen isn't that great, it's availability is still limited in the UK, and as with the P910, it's functionality exceeds my requirements so I would be over-paying.
This is frustrating as I have never finished a phone contract without knowing exactly what to upgrade to! My dream would be the K700 with external memory... okay my absolute dream would be a T610 with the outstanding K700 screen & interface, with external memory!!!
I look forward to reading replies, especially from owners of the phones I've mentioned above!
Cheers

I really wish you weren't right 50cent! I might have to add a new criteria:
Must not remind me of the face of someone with bulging cheeks who is about to spew...
I am not so shallow that the look of the phone would be the a good enough reason not to buy it, I think I will appreciate the functionality of a phone through a good display and soon get over what it looks like externally. The iSync issue that is found with the 7610 will probably affect this model though...

If you hadnt said that it had to be a candy bar form factor than I would have said S700i. It is the best phone I have ever owned (and I have owned a few) and the twisty bit is just class.

50cent: If I get the S65 I could also get an iPod, maybe for Christmas!
Ayush: thanks for your suggestion... the SX1 has an average camera (no better than my Z600) and the video clips are limited to 95kb apparently!
