Thankfully i dont have one. And here is my reaction to the phone- :puke: if it isnt late, i will ask you to change you mine. (It is not even a symbian! Only series40) dont get it. Waste of money.

Its the biggest nokia rip-off in my opinion. They are promotin it as a multimedia phone but its display is pathetic greatly affectin camera functions, video record/playback n you'll be forced to play same old s40 tho its java implementation is good and it could run s60 java. Well known s40 issues of random restarts/hangups persist. Users complain of receivin wrong mime type error quite often durin downloads. Bad camera which blurs very easily even on slightest movement. Looks plain borin imo. Stay away mate

The only positive it has over the K700 is the expandable memory - so concider it if you really want that!

Infact i would term edge as its only positive coz it doesnt need expandable memory. You surely dont expect to watch a full simpsons episode on that small,dull display??

As for its mp3 player its ok but nokia headphones arent(lack bass) and since they connect via pop port you cant change them with your own. Also its equiliser is a gimmick, does nothing to the sound.

Its mp3 is better than s60 coz s60 suck at mp3 playback(most dont even have stereo output) so the comparision standards are set very low...compare to k7 yourselves and decide.
1 gig memory but first of all that'll cost lots extra and secondly as explained above this phone doesnt need it.
Edge is good.
High res screen is somethin nokia write in all brochures(even s30

). It has a small,dull 128*128 display while k7 has 176*220 and s60 has 176*208 i.e. approx twice as many pixels. Go to a shop and compare display for yourselves.
Almost all phones nowadays can view xhtml. Btw k7 has 300k cache so will even open basic websites unlike this phone.
Practically every phone costing this much has bluetooth and infrared besides k7 can also be used as bluetooth remote.
All said and done its your call but i would say dont get it. My mate has one and hes regrettin spendin serious cash on this phone.
