the wobbly slide is why i didnt spend $1200 at THREE, i only found out about this phone on the SE website. the N95 is better for te amount of content that is in the phone. such as the GPS and the rest. but by far sony ericsson is better quality and camera wise the K850i will dominate the mobile camera phones. i was waiting for sony ericsson to make a 5 megapixel phone and FINALLY!!! i got a k800i and that is superb. i had it for 11 months and would like to get rid of it. the k850i should be more than $1000 since of the 5 megapixel camera. im hoping for it to be $890 !!!

i got the k850i last week as after having the k800i for over 2years and being happy with it thought the k850i could only be better... no such luck, at this stage i am on to my 3rd k850i in a week as sony keeps telling me they must be faulty if not taking as good pic as my k800i, day time photo's are great but dont rely on the flash, it doesn't seem to be timed right!!! humm dont know what to do now, sony says just keep swapping them over, has anyone else had this problem?

When is Vodafone coming out with the W960i, cause if you have looked at the i-phone, it thrashes it (even the 16GB if you compare features) and I reckon it will do way better than the n95?

      Nokia 6210 Navigator

      While the 6210 is solidly built and features fast performance, the lack of a lifetime subscription to turn-by-turn navigation robs the Navigator of what should make it unique in the market.

      Nokia N85

      It's hard to knock a phone that has all the current popular technologies, but it would have still been great for Nokia to consider new technologies for this latest N-Series range, particularly a media sharing networking protocol.

      Take out the Next G reception and you end up with a low quality handset at a mid-range price point. Still, it's great to see another blue tick phone for our friends in the bush to consider.

      While we like the E71 better, the E66 is a great smartphone with class leading features. If you want the functionality of a business phone without the bulk of a PDA form factor, the E66 is the phone you've been looking for.
