That is because the S65 is a megapixel camera, pictures take up a lot more memory. 1.3 is on par with some digital cameras, most of which have MMC slots.
S65 is a nice looking phone aswell! |

yeah but in that logic k700 should also have an expansion slot considering that it can take pictures in extended 1.3 mp mode.....
and 1.3mp doesn't take that much space, i mean you can easily have 60 pics on a 128 mb with a 5mp camera.... |

The S65 is really not that special
It has a big - but not very good screen. Low resolution compared to screensize and dull colors. Comparing the same pictures on both phones and the K700 screen is much higher quality - much sharper and brighter/better colorreproduction.
It has a memoryslot - but no ability to playback musicfiles of any kind neither mp3 nor AAC/mp4
This also means no mp3 ringtones.
Videorecording/playback is subpar to the K700 - K700 can play back mp4video with highquality AAC smoothly - S65 only support low quality amr and playback is not as smooth as K700
It has an 1.3mp camera - but quality is not particularly good - pictures have litle color and for instance the 1mp camera of N7610 beats it hands down.
heres a link to a good comparison
http://home.online.no/~rontonic/s65vs7610.htm
It has adopted the menu from S//E - but my guess is because siemens whish to save battery they have designed the menu rather boring with few colors. Some may say they like it - but I see no point in having a colorscreen and not using it.
But no complaints as to the function of the menus or the filesystem - these work fine.
Design is very nice I think - but keypad feels cheep and way to small for comfortable use.
All in all - its a good standard phone with a megapixel camera - but nothing special to rock the market and certainly not anything that should make S//E ashamed of the K700 - which sports more possibilities than the S65 and in a nicer way.
