Linkage to article?

I like the OS & the design of the phone. But I don't like those straight edges, makes it less comfortable to hold (CPW actually had them in stock!) though that may be down to the security cable weighing it down?

Still a good phone and looks nice, will be a hard decision when upgrade time comes round between this, the HTC Titan and Samsung Omnia 7

i think.. although not 100% sure that this is the new phone my brother got last week.

its very quick and smooth I have to say. also quite comfortable to hold, whilst remaining very light complared to my bb and my sister inlaws iphone4.

whilst playing with i did notice a few bits of functionality that were missing. not sure if these just work differently on nokia these days but it wasnt where you would expect. I also remember my brother saying how he could not forward messages or something along those lines.

He may well have it worked out by now, as he had only had the phone 1 day.

I would definately recommend using it for a while before purchasing. It doesnt have the kind of functionality I persoanlly would look for in a phone.

Coming from a BB user I find that funny  Though my gripes are with BB's in the work place nowadays and lack of built in functionality most others have now.

ok I agree to some extent, but the simple call based functionality that bb's have is second to none. As a communication device there isnt much out there that does anything noticably better.

in fact the only gripe i have with my phone is the battery... which is crap because of the touch screen, which is another crap bit of functionality my phone does not require
