ok, i have a 7650 and i really do love it, But i want more. I want expandable memory, bigger screen, video and mp3 playback.

p800 - perfect solution.

BUT heres what bothers me and i would love you thoughs and opinions on this.

No t9 - do u feel ok using a stylus on a bus or out and about? or do u just use the keypad and tap manually? Is the keypad easy to press? do u feel comfortable using it?

flip - can u wrting sms, email etc with flip closed, or do u need to open it and use sytlus for easier use?

camera - 7650's is great (in my opinion) does p800 match it? is there a night mode?

Is there any software that ables us to use MSN on the p800? like im+ on the 7650?

Thanks a lot for any feedback. a appreciate it.

people will always have a difference of opinion, even in response to your own post for help making a decision.

Best you can do is choose from what has been said before and by trying the unit in a shop for yourself.

-You can play and record videos on the 7650, try looking for sites that have the software

No t9 - do u feel ok using a stylus on a bus or out and about? or do u just use the keypad and tap manually? Is the keypad easy to press? do u feel comfortable using it?

-It's tricky in the begining but after a day you can write pretty well, but it DOESN'T beat T9 at all....


flip - can u wrting sms, email etc with flip closed, or do u need to open it and use sytlus for easier use?

-You can write sms, but with multitap, for easier and advanced use you NEED to open flip

camera - 7650's is great (in my opinion) does p800 match it? is there a night mode?
-There is NO nightmode, I think the 7650's camera is better...

Is there any software that ables us to use MSN on the p800? like im+ on the 7650?
-There are several software sites that connect you to MSN messenger, ICQ and yahoo...

I write my SMS messages using either Jot (handwriting recongition) or the virtual qwerty keyboard.

Either, but I have removed the flip completely for the full PDA feel

Can't comment, haven't used the 7650 camera but it seems good for what it is.

Haven't seen MSN but ICQ and some other. Check out http://www.my-symbian.com for all the latest downloads.
