Nokia phones are ok, but we are in Symbian forum, are we? Nokia owns Symbian, so anything that didn't went right, I blame them, is it not?
The only reason I kept coming back to Nokia is because of the keypad. I used to be a travelling salesman, covering 400km at worst per day. From one shop to another, and with the calls coming in and out, WM touch device was a nightmare. Even the Nokia 7710 was not spared. I had to use one with keypad but it was never my first choice. Finally, a perfect phone came up, SE M600i. It was a good 1 1/2 year before I decided to move on to 5800. This may sound utterly stupid but except for the GPS, there is nothing that pleased me. I'm so pissed with the calculator and the notes. The small qwerty also a big turn off (in normal mode). The one thing that I hate most in 7710 and WM is back, small tab to scroll contact list, which was a huge problem until KS came. The stupid qwerty stayed. There's more, like expensive app and so on.
Yes, Android in stock form, still annoys me, as calculator and handwriting notepad was my essential everyday tool. At least there's free app which covered that. It's not by any mean best, but better. I actually prefer IPhone UI, and I never denied it. Why I choose Android? Flash Player. My experience with 7710 tells me to avoid N900. It has proven true.
It might sound rude, but stuffs like camera, video calls, usb on the go, video out does not excite me much because at the end of the day, I don't have time for it. For pretty boys and girls, who dressed nicely and work in office, can utilise these stuffs when there is nothing better to do.
Nokia holds the key, and it's really up to them. Someday in the near future, where mobile phone processor has got enough speed, Nokia really shine with everything ranging from presentation, movie, conference meeting, as the result of their experimentation, but for now just stick to the basic. The phone and its usability.
