New mobile phone suggestion?

[mohammedm]

I am in the market for a new mobile and will like to get something that has 3G, EDGE or even perhaps HSDPA.
I cannot wait for the SE990i (now only August release), so does anyone have any suggestions for a shortlist of handsets?

Nokia n70, SE W900.

I went for the n70, more 3rd party apps, more comfortable design, but the interface is a bit complicated at times.

There's a flood of this class of device on the horizon, SE k800, k610, nokia n72, n73, 6233, n80 etc. They're all incremental or variations on what the N70 offers.

Thanks

I had my mind set on the W900, but after playing with it, it is big and bulky and the flip mechanism is irritating.
N70 is probably a neater phone with amazing features although a little boring. I agree that is probably is the besxt out there at the moment.

Anyway, I will have to take the plunge - can't wait forever...

Ordered my new phone

Have asked my SP to provide me with a Nokia N80 - should have it by next week.

Has EDGE, 3G, WLAN, bluetooth, IR, 3 megapixel camera and VGA camera, can read office documents, FM radio, MP3 player etc...

The N91 is also a cool phone, but only has one camera which is 2 megapixel. It is a iPod killer, with built in 4GB and the build quality is fantastic - all meal with metal buttons. It is however, much larger than the rather small N80.

Hey Mohammed, who is your SP. I thought the networks are still testing this handset.

What does any of this have to do with Sentech/myWireless???

apologies

Firstly, apologies to garp - when I first posted the message, i thought is was being posted in a "wireless" forum and not Sentech MyWireless. Now, I'm not sure how to move the post to the correct forum - perhaps a forum administrator can help?

In response to DjStyles - my SP is CellC - don't call them directly as the left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. I deal directly with a friend who owns 3 stores (N1 city, Killarney and Rosebank), and if there is stock, they will order it for you.

I have also seen and played with the phones at the Nokia Customer Care Centre is Greenpoint. They have stock and you can purchase them outright - costs R5999 per phone.

Ps: garp - sorry once again.
