I think I'm gonna wait for the release and the N73/N93 review unit...but I'm wondering the joystick of the N73, it's similar to the N91, am I right?

Imo all nokia symbians are very good, the choice depends on individual usage and taste. They offer a really big palette

I know that other phones will have bugs but the joystick on my k750 is driving me mad!

Also I just fancied a change and the fact that the 6280 or n70 has edge means faster internet. I just feel like a new phone I think! I've had my k750 for ages!!

Thanks for advice!


'faster internet'... Man, forget about that! Honestly, 6680/n70 etc... By the time your nokia smartie opens the bookmarks any k/w SE has already taken you to the right site - no matter what browser, 3g, edge or not... And i really really wanted to love a nokia. Same about musicplayers, etc. - gee, you can write a poem in the time it takes an N70 to open a 20-letter sms? I'm not nokia-bashing; they aren't baaad phones, but trust me, if you switch from k750 to N-anything you will be shocked by how slow a modern phone can be. Friend of mine works in vodafone store. He honestly didn't care much about what brand'n'all, but when recently his boss gave him n70, he thought he had travelled btravelled back in time... He's now bought a w810, paid for it himself rather than use a free n70! [addsig]

had that same experiemce with a 6680. i thought i'd try a nokia again after so many years. it was just so slow doing anything, and many times i'd put the phone down to do something else while it's retarded brain figured out what i wanted it to do.

i actually timed it once and it took close to 40 sec to open the gallery app. to select a folder, e.g. Images, it took over a minute! and this with only a 256MB memory card that was only 1/3 full!

needless to say, i got rid of it after about 2 weeks. never again blokia...

...Also, check if you really want/need a smart phone, check out what applications suit you, and what's just gimmicky for a day or 2! (just consider the many once great apps and features - java and symbian - that have become obsolete overnight because of the tiny little 'unsmart' thing called opera mini! Or this: I HAVE tried 5(!) different musicplayers for my work 6680/n70 (some costly symbian add on's); not one is nearly as good as the embedded mediaplayer in the 'old' k750... I've tried many, many smart apps, and frankly, 90 pc are just overcomplicated kilobyte-heavy gimmicks... Well, just some things for you to consider... Maybe i just work for se? Take care! [addsig]
