Long time lurker but short time poster.
I am very confused about which phone I should buy. I had been waiting for k700 for ages until it came out very expensive in my country ($600 incl. tax). My runner up was S65 but it doesnt play mp3's not to mention a radio, nor is it a symbian and Ive seen those 1.3mp photos which dont even compare with 7610's, very bad colour!! Well since my heart break with K700i and S65 Ive turned to smart phones since the older ones have cheapened. Looked at sx1 and 6600 and even 7610 which hasnt cheapened (yet).

SX1-Liked this the best, its got great features, everything I want in terms of software and applications (radio, can install prog's, good organiser, good mosquito game , has mms slot) BUT have heard a lot about bugs, slowness and hanging in the UI even crashes and shit. I know theve got 13th firmware version out, which says a lot (double digit firmware version should have fixed most prob's) but Im still worried...Also looks as though they are lifting the phone from the market here in Turkey, cant find it everywhere anymore and most big mobile phone houses havent put in new purchase orders for it

6600-no radio and featurewise is second best to sx1

7610-no radio, card is RS mms which is harder to find, MONO sound (theyve gotta be kidding!), its price is still around $700 incl. tax.

What do I want; ability to install programs such as a dictionary or a password manager etc.(smartphone?), external memord slot, radio (prefrebly), fast UI, average cam (vga would do I suppose), avge video recording, lots of external voice recording (do a lot of business trips and would like to take verbal notes while travelling), around $500 price range incl 18% VAT and most of all a problem free phone!!

Would appreciate any unbiased advice.

How much does the 3650 and the 3660 cost in your country? I feel they are the only smartphones which have all the features you mentioned and both are cheap. Also what about the Ngage? But it ain't got a cam. Which country are you in? This message was posted from a T230
