Title says it...
I am happy with and I would love to change the phone. But there is some advice I need from people at Esato...
At first I thought about the K600 (it is UMTS, but non MSDUO, no good camera and no apps and little memory), then I thought about the K750 (good camera, MSDUO, but no UMTS and no apps).
After them I thought about the P910 (MSDUO, camera but NO UMTS and a little bit big (thick to be precise)).

I guess I am just one of those "always unhappy" customers visiting forums on the internet
Anyway, I am interested in making the good choice since I will have to live with what I buy for a year (contract discount). So I want a phone that I can live with for 12 months, which means it has to be compatible with the new technologies but also help me out in my daily job.
Of course I can wait a little...

What do I need?
Phone
Camera (for fun though, forget 7Mpx)
Calendar
Data connection (check my emails and, WHEN NEEDED, donwload them on my notebook (the faster the better)
Play a good amount of music
As small as possible (t610 or k750 are quite good, P910 is not)
Good battery
Good voice quality

As I said, I am on contract so there will be a discount... This means that price is not that big of an issue.

Something important... I have been a customers for 9 years now and had only one Panasonic (for a week) besides that. I would love to stick to if possible.
Timing?
Well, starting july I would love to be able to purchase it.

Your thoughts?


PS- My t610 has reached 221:17:21 hours of talking time... So its about time.. (I will keep it for when I have to practice extreme sports (which I don't) or for the army (which I have to do) and simply as a wonderful piece of furniture...

Now... that's a good idea!
I didn't think about the Z800. I guess I was sleeping ( :zz: )
Isn't the phone a little big?
How much does it cost?

mumble mumble...
I don't like clambshell phones, but I guess it is my only option... At least it has all other features. (we are not living in a perfect world...).

Dunno about its price. But a good phone imho. Suits all your requirements. Except for it being a clamshell!

Well, if you compare the V800 to the Z1010, its tiny !

I'd go for the V800 if i were you, its a truely great phone which is only let down by having a poorer ( not by much ) camera than the S700i.

I think the K600 is the perfect upgrade from the T610. Doesn't it have a 1.3 cam? And 40 Mb is a good step up from 2.

S700i is a 2.5 G close enough.

Yes. It doesn't have the stupid 128 mb memory stick limit.

Thanks for the advice
In the meantime my company just bought me a K700 which, although not a major upgrade from my t610, gives me a little more time to think about which to buy when my private contract will be over.

The idea of going for a z800 is great but I still hope something new in the UMTS market will be released soon... (always complaining... )

Out of all these options the z800 is by far the best, it is a top class phone with tons of features. Out of interest why don't tou like clamshell phones? i love them.
