Except for the N75, no Nokia phone is USA-3G compatible  So, if I pretend not to care that I'm paying for a capability I can't use, which N-series phone - besides the N95  - would make a good upgrade from the  W810? I need this phone to be/have
- bar or slider design (no clamshells)
- quad-band
- EDGE
- 2MP or better auto-focus camera
- excellent music & video player
- expandable memory
- available SIM-free
A dedicated 3.5mm stereo jack would also be nice, but I won't hold my breath!
I'm interested in the N-series because of Nokia's support for the Mac (particularly iSync and iTunes), in addition to the build quality, OS, and UI.

only N90, N95, N93 and N73 have autofocus. Since you dont like clamshell, i guess N73 is an automatic choice. I dont know about it being sim free. |

Any feedback on the Nokia 5700? It looks goofy and feels cheap, but OTOH, it's an S60 device with quad-band, EDGE, QVGA display, and 2MP camera.
If I decide to pick up an iPod again, the E50 and E65 look good also.

yes but 5700 is better at music because of its integrated music chip and latest music player |

Yes, it's cheaply made, but it's also the cheapest phone in this thread

No, but having 2MP + auto-focus in the W810 spoiled me. It'd be hard to settle for fewer MP and/or fixed-focus.

yeah but with N series you gain so much more that you'd forget camera  |
