aiyoh.. u misinterpret la bro.

in a nut shell.. he says that some parts of the metal keypad will get scratched.. not the slider. so not so nice lo.

the mechanism on the E65 is a new type and works very well.. this is the first time nOkia is using this mech on their slider phones. have a go at it.. u will be surprised.

Added on March 29, 2007, 10:30 amUr correct on the AD being Zitron n Avaxx but not Samart i-Mobile.. they no longer AD for Nokia begining 1st March 2007!

CSL is AP imported not only for Nokia.. they will bring in anything that is popular and can make money.

would like to stress on warranty of phone between AP & AD.

How AD works.. they set up service centres and repair the sets on behalf of the manufacturers which repay the for the parts used and labour charges based on repair.

AP.. the will set up their own repair centers and make allocation out of their own pockets to service the phones. In another terms... its like insurance lo.. hope that out of 1000 phones , only 20 got problem and come back for repairs... 2% ratio.

if a model of phone is problematic.. then die la for the AP guy cause he is digging into his own pockets to repair the set.. while AD just claim form manufacturer.

Added on March 29, 2007, 11:01 amLike to just share my view on the E65

Nokia E series is targeted at business users as can be seen with earlier models with full qwert keypads.. sumthing like Blackberry. this series is to complement business solutions churned out by nokia. Nokia does have security n mail solutions. The Nokia E65 can work with digital pabx systems from Avaya, Cisco and Alcatel using WLAN and some clients. real cool. Support SIP Voip 2.0 .. free IP calls.

its support reader for most microsoft office documents, zip, acrobat.. support viewing of html pages.. etc has this cool ZOOM button too..

BUt for the normal enduser.. this is a VOICE business phone as can be seen form the dedicated hard buttons .. u can do one touch call conf to groups that u have created.. (can group sms also) .. while on call.. u can mute the call agian using dedicated ahrd button.. or flick thru the phone book to find number of a contact ... really nice if u call alot of people and do call conf..

the active standy view gives u a summary of emails u recieved, sms, missed calls etc.. all on one page.. nice.

this will definately be the phone i plan to get when i got budget to change my existing phone.. since im not a power data ..
