In your opinion yes. I don't mind removing the battery to put another mmc in. It takes 2 seconds. The speaker is mono and not perfect, but hey, not everyone uses this also

Esato users need to calm down a little. Dont take other peoples dislikes to S/e phones to heart! Sheesh!
Bottom line is that the K700 is a nice phone but it did surprise me that it wasnt given a mem card slot and its not as if there are only a handful of people who think this. Everyone I speak to about the new phone point this out. As for Nokia (Yes folks, its spelled N.O.K.I.A) vs S/e, I really dont see a whole lot of difference between the two manufacturers. I sell phones and as a result use alot of different handsets and guess what?, When I put my sim card into a phone it makes a calls whether its in a N.O.K.I.A or an S/E.
HOwever, I do prefer S/E

@orangeman he you would like to use your phone as an mp3 player it really matters. And i have heard the polytone quality of 6600 and the sound was flat without any details. And the midg wavetable must be wrong because midis sound very different on pc and on 6600. Hell, my T230 plays polytones better than 6600. No need to start a flame war. I an just expressing my opinions.

The K700 has memory expansion. its called a PC. it easy to transfer files using IR or BT. at the end of the day, put those pictures that you don't really need on you're phone into your harddrive.
you'll thank yourself for it. |

I also use my iPAQ to store and swap around extra phone stuff for the K700, as indeed I have done since the T68 (got a 1gb SD card now )

Yes, but your going to have a hard job carrying your Pc around with you in your pocket!!! You cant possibly think that Pairing your phone with your PC is a realistic alternative for MMC, do you?

@orangeman Very nice reply. 6600 is really a great phones, whatever the fanatic users say. But to say the truth it has the good and bad nokia. Good is fast menus and good connectivity. Bad is very low quality polytone speaker and difficult memory card swapping.

That's why I bought a SX1!  6600 also doesn't have stereo MP3 playback, which is the bigest problem in my opinion. |

ok ok guys...slow down.....I've changed 15 phone in three years (phone nerd ) and I've also had a nokia 6600...I've bought it in november 2003, sold it in april 2004 bought a panasoni x70 sold it a couple weeks ago and I now have a k700....about the 6600...that was one of the best phone I've ever had..I'll now tell u why..but I'll also tell u the big problems that phone has...If you've ever had that phone you've surely noticed that : audio sucks, display is nice (compared to 3650) but not as nice as k700 or other manifactures, however it does quite well it's dirty job, menus are very slow specially when u startup the phone and the phone itself often crashes and u have to restart it...BUT...if u like to hack the phone as I did that's the best phone ever..I mean..do u guys know n-gage 4 example?the phone sucks BUT the games have great graphics...well...I had on my 6600 each n-gage game out stored in my 256 mb mmc, furthermore I had a 25 languages full dictyonary on my phone, and many , many other nice programs, nice themes (not as nice as k700 ) I even had a gps program (wayfinder) and I could use the phone as a memory to carry with me some small files....with that phone u can change each menu and extremely personalize it...4 example instead of the operator logo I had a macintosh logo...BUT..the phone didn't give a nice sensation when u touched it (plastic and not very strong) furthermore it was quite big and heavy.....7610 is just the same phone with a terrible design (it seems a big leaf) no flash (are they nuts?...1 mp camera and no flash? same menus as 6600) ---->so...I'll just wait for s700 and I'll keep with love my k700 now...
ps..just a personal opinion I think z1010 is way too big...nice display but the phone looks like a sandwich..here in italy 3g has much better phones 4 3g services...
-----------------------
so...after you've tried so many phone as I did u just realize that there is no good or bad phone...each phone is built for some kind of customers....4 example a friend of mine who is a doctor wanted a smart phone 4 all his appointments and his stuff (to do, agenda ecc)...I told him that p900 was the best he could buy he bought a nokia 6600 instead 4 two reasons..he told me he had already had a p800 and even if it was a great phone he realised that it was a big nuisance for him to use the pen to properly use the phone...and p900 was too expensive, because he already had a handheld so he wanted something relatively small and esay to use...so I think it's just a matter of taste. and... @gunn it isn't a matter of arguing..if u think se suck just don't buy them anymore...so waht's the deal?..
ah...another thing where se are way better than nokia : components....very solid phone, very well built, very stilish..BUT 4 example a big issue on my k700 is that it's too easy to scratch the display  ....
SORRY FOR BOTHERING YOU SO MUCH GUYS (4 the long post )

@scorchio
obviously, the K700 wasn't designed for people who need to have every aspect of their life on a phone. and obviously I'm not one of those people. I can't fill 40mb of memory in a single day. I can wait a day, heck a week before I'd need to transfer files to my PC.
before you bring up the MP3 thing again, I'm going to repeat that the K700 was not designed as an MP3 player substitute. the ability to play MP3s was put in the phone for ringtones.
Look at it this way:
*small phone
*great screen resolution
*great UI
*40 MB on board memory
*can play MP3s as ringtones
*decent built-in camera for MMS
THIS PHONE ROCKS
as opposed to:
*MP3 player with no external memory
*0.3MP digital camera
*oh yeah... there's a built-in phone
This phone sucks
