I have to say that they look amazing. I wish they would try a few in Europe like the Bravia one, just to test the water. I would definately go for one! |

Yeah the Nokia is so out of place. Its the only model thats simply a rebadged and reconfigured european model. I bet the Japanese are laughing their heads off, while us non-Japanese would consider ourselves lucky to have that Nokia probably!
@QVGA: Tall yes, but how else are they going to fit in those awesome WQVGA and maybe WVGA screens?

The rate at which NTT announces phones is amazing. I'd have a new handset every week if I was in Japan. |

NM706i. It's a ... wait, they look almost the same. Maybe a 6220 classic or 6134 classic.
edit: In the last 705 series Nokia also had a redesigned 6120 classic for DoCoMo: http://www.nttdocomo.com/bina[....]mages/2007/nm705i_allcolor.jpg

SO706i looks too plain. Not as attractive or cute as SO705i.
from my observations, sometimes it's better off not knowing. |
