@goldenface
3250 is the heir of 3230 that I didnt like either, though it was relatively better looking.
Yeah, I could agree that they are going down the wrong path here. They have some neat looking phones, but this one clearly ain't one of'em.
I expect a music phone to look trendy, modern and not overdone...
While  has found a clear identifier -which one could question- for their music phones, Nokia is still looking for that... and at the moment, a bit in the wrong direction. |

1) I hope the comera has a cover.
2) It's not that bad looking but doesn't it look too much like the N70? If you don't see the swivel, that is. I can understand the swivel for the camera, but for music buttons, I just don't see the need. I'd put the music controls on the side or top anyday.
3) If it it were a 6xxx series I wouldn't worry about build quality, but going by the index and its predecessor the 3230 I'd like to here some real feadback before putting a judgment on it.
I don't want a signature anymore. |

Thats just what I am talking about.
It was predicted that music - orientated handsets would be massive in 2005 and some manufacturers have managed to capitalise successfully, by restyling and rebranding in order to set their music handsets apart from normal phones - ( would have been silly not to utilise the Walkman brand.
Like you said above, you would expect such a device to look hip and fun - just like music is - however these attributes seem to have escaped Nokia with this device. |

That thing looks horrid, no offence to anyone that likes it but it is hardly stylish....

I'm impressed but Nokia could've done without the twist- it doesn't seem practical.
If it was available tommorow I'd buy it.

Well, can't say much about the looks, it's quite subjective. But the specs are pretty good. I'd be tempted to get it purely based on its specs alone. Check out gsmarena.com.

Yeah, I like...,and the dimensions will certainly suit/fit more pockets than its impending 4 gig N91 monster-sibling...
not that dimensions is everyone's key criteria,but as I'm already hauling a P-series around,a smaller handset with these features would be most welcome.

3250: "USB 2.0 full speed with mass storage profile"
can used as a usb drive without needing to install driver to pc. So N91/3250 would be first Series60 to support this.

Do you think Nokia are going down the wrong path too.
I think the handsets are over styled with that Nokia-esque look, a bit too much. (EDIT: Like you said above, you would expect such a device to look hip and fun - just like music is - however these attributes seem to have escaped Nokia with this device. ) << paraphrased from replying to someone else....

Not trying to single you out, but like yourself many people agree on this. I dont. Im glad that it has a kinda obilisc, blocky state - this lasts longer over time to appreciate its design. The iPod is a huge success but its STILL a rectangle in ALL its designs & models.
You dont want to see another 7610/6670 design joke do you??? I sure dont.
problem is many have missed the obvious; NO FLASH!!! |

@ Prom 1:
The difference is: the iPod is a beautiful rectangle.
All iPod wannabes have copied one way or another the iPod original design, but have failed miserably in my opinion. Only the latest Philips MP3 could stand against the iPod. |
