  1. Well maybe a woman can shed some light on the design. But as for the brands: they are all decent. Some have problems with SE, others with LG, nokia etc. Sony Ericsson would be a safe choice if she hasn't any issues with here current phone

    I like nokia, but most models look like they are made for men. I know the E71/E72 is popular under the women at my university. But I think that model is not what you are looking for.

    Does she want a sliding model, clamshell, etc?
  2. Looking at the photo I'd stick to the one she's got - it looks great!!
  3. Drew, I know about LG. Actually she likes SE the most. Hates LG Motorola and Samsung.



    Emm...she doesn't know, if I find a model that I'm absolutely sure about, it will stay a surprise, but if I can't find one, I'll either try to get it from her indirectly, or just let her know my intentions and have her choose. She likes her phone to be small and capable. Not some small shit that can't do anything. And I already got her an iTouch, so she doesn't want an iPhone or any touchscreen for that matter.
    I was hoping for one of the girls to help me here, but I guess they just don't check this topic!



    Yep, it's a wonderful phone, and she really loves it, but the LCD on the front has broken and you can imagine how upsetting that is, everytime you look at the great phone, there is a black circle on the front LCD.
  4. Isnt there a new model of SE from the same serie?

    Got my N900 today. Amazing, amazing device. MSN, skype, etc integrates perfectly with your contacts and 'conversations'.

    Mediaplayer is amazing, i just installed FLAC support and it plays Apple lossless as well. Also you dont need WMP to sync your device. Just copy the files to the drive and it will be picked up automatically. I am using a foobar2000 plugin for this.

    The videoplayer is pretty good with common xvid files, although there is some frameskipping during complex scenes.

    The browser is pretty cool as well. Its a firefox port, the addon dialog is exactly the same and its actually possible to install Adblock Plus and other addons.

    I know Android and iPhone OS have more apps at the moment, but its incredible what already is available: Bittorrent clients, other mediaplayers, official firefox, remote control software and even AbiWord.

    Games are a bit weak at the moment. Although there are some nice games available.

    What operating system does it have?



  6. Maemo 5. Basically Linux. Massively open source and highly hackable
  7. Yes, its running Maemo 5 Its a heavy phone though, heavier than the N95 i had. Will need to buy an extra battery because using the fun stuff kills the battery.
  8. Ali / that's a shame about the LCD. I'll see what SE phones are kicking around here.


  9. Thanks a lot Dan
    And Chris, congrats on the new phone!


  10. Aye, already looking for new candidates since my Nokia 5800 runs out of contract in May 2011


  11. Still a great phone. Gonna stick with the Hero until it gets the 2.1 update. I do need a Nokia aswell though.


  12. I'll just wait and see how Meamo 5 develops. Gonna stick with Nokia anyway though, the best brand for me.
