its not really comfortable, thats true. since t68i se cannot create a fone with an acceptable joystick.

i did rather enjoy the joystick on k700, which is not the most solid of touches but rather intuitive.

i do miss the original t68m joy, what was used later in the i version aswell. t610 and 630 were nightmare, almost painfull after long usage. or at least a kind of t65 "joypad" solution would be nice. weird, but it seems that k6 joy do fits the imagination of se according comfortable usage...

for k600, it was obvious design was sacrificed over usability. but what i don't understand is they maintained the ugly, bulbous (but infinitely more comfortable) in the k750, which looked a bit out of place in it's squarish form.

yeah, they wnted to create a nice design, but forgot the ohter side, as u mentioned, the usage itself. but unfortunately thats the way it is, so maybe the next 3g fone will be "better". according design, its remembners me more of a typical sony remote control for tv, as a fone. how do u like the keypad?

The K600's joystick is not as rounded as the K700 but I still prefer it over the latter. Just feels more solid than the plasticky joystick of the K700 which loses responsiveness after a while.

I have a K750, K600 at the moment.

Just sold my T68i, T610, K700.

I have to say that i like both of my K750 and K600 Joysticks.

The T68 was ok but never seem to b acurate.
T610 was a little flimsy
k700 had to have a new joystick replaced after 7 months
k750 Luv the joystick but went wrong after 4 weeks
K600 Very Firm and Acurate. A Lot better solid feel.

@Boba: I used the K600 for about a month and one of the things I hated about the phone was it's flush keypad...texting with your eyes closed is nearly impossible...much prefer the K608's keypad.

i do hate it aswell, when the keypad isnt a bit over the cover. it was the same suffering at my z1010. donnow why is this solution that good... and it feels way too soft for me... do miss "to feel" when i push it.

I use the V600i , the Joystick works well and accurate, but you need always to control your self with it .

If you are calm and cautious, the Joystick will do everything fine

If you use it like a broom, it will start to act, like one.
