i dont see ppl helping them

Hello. Congrats on ver 7 and many thanks for advices/suggestions

1. Brand - prefer Samsung, nokia. NO SE!
2. Budget - RM800
3. Emphasis on big quality screen, good & loud sound
4. Camera at least 3.0mega pixel but can live with 2.0Mp
5. Prefer non-candy bar & good casing design but not critical
6. 3G n internet connectivity not important

Terima kasih

1. Brand: Preferable SE or Nokia.
2. Budget: Max RM 1700
3. Specs: 3G/3.5G/Has camera not less than 3.2MP/Bluetooth/has memory card slot/MP3/
4. Type/Size: Slide or Candybar doesn't matter

1. nokia/se
2. 2k
3. gud speaker quality
4. any.........

n82,sony ericsson x1,n85,n78,n81 or n79..u choose

More Q than A >.>

1. Preferably Sony Ericsson
2. < RM1 k
3. At least 2 Mega pixel auto focus camera, better with GPRS/EDGE
4. For girl

SE C902 AP set should be under RM1k.

1. Brand: Not preference if the phone itself is good.
2. Budget: RM1000+
3. Specs: Good camera and music performance. Easy and no lagging for SMS. I don't like to have a phone which requires few steps to change the language and not great at chinese input. Nokia messenging system is quite nice.
4. Type/Size: I've used K800i and N82 before and lost them both in the toilet... so candybar phone might be a bit boring to me.

What I have read about and quite interested in are the Nokia E71, SE W980i and SE C902. I don't mind getting a N82 again if it really pawns.
