The 6600 does not have touch input and the screen is smaller, in real life this makes a big difference

My colleague at work has a 7610 and never uses it for web or wap as it is so difficult to use the small screen and text input is very involved

@govigov, the P900 costs 39k true. But it would cost you an absurd 42.5 ks with a 256 mb MS DUO. And definitely the P910 would cost more! But that may push the price of the P900 bit south.

@Ayush

Looks like you are having problems with a small screen device without touch screen input. Also please note that the Nokia 6600 does not have jog dial.

With jog dial you can use many functions with one hand. With the keypad on the P910 you can also input lots of text quickly.

dudes, I don't know if you are aware, but 6670 is appearing soon, which has all the functions of 6600 + megapixel camera!

the screen is ok at 170x208. If that's not enough for you, then you might consider getting a real pda

just kiddin' - I like the p910, but I hate the fact that it's got no real gaming posibilities (no joystick). I personally will wait a little bit more to see the A780 from Motorola (the one with 240x320 + joystick touchscreen and linux os ).

Does the 6600 allow you to update the firmware as you can with the P900?

I'm sorry but there really is no comparison - if you actually look at the complexity of the software available and the extra functionality, never mind firmware updates (or even having the ability to connect to a PC without using IR or BT!!), the touchscreen, the storage space etc, the P900 is the "smartest" phone and the 6600 just about scrapes into the category. It also has a software platform that has far more problems than UIQ (and causes far more faulty handsets).

Hence, perhaps, the price difference???

But is the P900 really worth two 6600s?! How can SE justify that price?
