ive always been a big fan of nokias and sony ericsson. nokias are the most user-friendly phones that ive ever used. plus they always have a lot of useful features.

Don't have bluetooth installed in my car so can't tell you much about that...but Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) feature is freakin' awesome...if you have wireless router access (like in your house for example) or anywhere else you can get access to (as in a public hotspot) you can hook up on the internet, do MSN, check email, download ringtones without incurring any crazy carrier charges...2 cameras, 1 VGA for video calls and 1 3MP camera for pics (really good quality except in really dark situations when pics come out a bit grainy)....

It's also got a miniSD slot for your memory needs for music, pics, vids, etc etc...AND its got an FM tuner built in .... tellin' you I've never seen a more complete package

A bit pricey though as this phone won't likely be offered by any carrier in north america

According to the same web site that you show pictures from - this phone is not very reliable and has a tons of problems. They recomended SonyEric 610.(810)

That's true if you don't have the latest firmware. If you're getting it with the latest firmware (Symbian OS), you shouldn't have any problems. I'm really happy with the phone. Only minor issue is battery life but even this is not a problem when the phone is used as a phone (only becomes an issue when you start heavily using Wi-Fi, bluetooth, music playback, radio...but every other phone is like that anyways)....

The key: latest firmware...

K790a wasn't available when i was getting this one and it all comes down to what you're after in a phone..Nokias have more features/functionality and are generally the most stable ones out there (Motorola worst, then SonyEricsson better and then Nokia) according to a vast majority of review websites outthere....

I suggest you check out www.gsmarena.com and see what the top 10 phones are at the moment

Good choice. this will work with bluetooth for the car cuz i tried it already. pricey??? yes...Very but it's worth it and i don't think it's available with a carrier yet cuz i got mine off of ebay.

I sold my Nokia 6682 recently, I know much about the S60 OS. Personally, I bought a Windows Mobile 5 phone and could never go back. S60 is great but not on par with a full PDA type situation.
