What's the advantage of the T610 over the P800? |

When the T610 arrives, I guess the price is going to be similar to the P800 (which will be a few months old).
So, is there any point in the T610 apart from the size??
I want the Bluetooth MP3 player, and I guess that will work with the P800 (and t68i) as well as the T610? | |

The T610 is primarily a phone... input method, via HARDWARE keypad. Features and functionality is more or less built-in with limited expansion capabilities.
The P800 has a full blown OS with a lot of room for expansion. For example, a business person would probably buy most of the financial related software... stock watchers, financial calculators, currency converters, etc. A gamer would obviously download games for the P800... 3D games, board games, RPGs, etc. A jet-setter would get the World Clocks, Currency converters, Travel guides, etc... get my point? The P800 is a specialized device that can be tailored to suit its user's specific needs.
The T610 is a phone with some P800 features... camera, basic mobile multimedia, and small memory. Not everyone needs the power of the P800 (or the size!) the T610 tries to address the needs of this market. It's a power-PHONE. While the P800 is a Communicator... a PDA/phone hybrid.
Think of it this way... if the T68i/T610 mated with a PDA... the offspring would be the P800 
Or if you're more Darwinian... the chain of evolution would be:
T610->P800->PDA hehehe...although I feel this isn't quite right since I feel it's more the other way around.
PDA->P800->T610 hahaha... it can be either way...
Think of the P800 as the transition point between the T610 and a PDA.
