aw man the 7710 ! I had that one. memories. Just hoping to get a n97 for under 5 hundred dollars in the states.

Gsm more then likely..which makes it for tmo and att. 850 / 1900 / 2100 which means it wouldn't pick up the 3g on tmobile. (idiots @ tmo really did me over on that one, but i still can't leave em, love em too much) hope that helped. lol.

so uhhh... if the iphone wasn't put under the smartphone category... (holds mumble)

who woulda won ?

i could go for a new os on my e71. I feel like it's been the damn same since the days of the 3650 (wasn't that the first phone that could record video?)

nonetheless... Nokia's smartphone demographic (at least in the U.S.) had always been users who aren't trying to subsidize phones (you can thank your local gsm carriers for always picking up the SHITTY phones for that), but now that that every competitor has at least one phone that can be subsidized via a carrier, the market has tightened up, because.... people are starting to save their money. Nokia's best phone right now (said e71), can be subsidized by going through best buy, but 1. Who wants to deal with the devil, and 2. If you're already in best buy and looking at the unlocked phones, you're prolly part of the demographic that would buy a high end nokia anyways. Brand awareness is another thing. I'm sorry, but the only one that i can remember being a big deal would be the 3650... and i've had wayy too many nokia phones (the real touchscreen phone, the 7710, is still around here).. so until westerners stop associating nokia with those cheap ass entry level phones that they got for their grandparents, the connotation lies with the basic ass phones.. where on a horrible day, the worst bb (let's just say the storm is the new sidekick) smashes the 5310 that tmobile beats into the ground in various colors.

Nokia knows where they make their money. They've already gotten their demographic, and their followers, it's just more people playing the "smartphone" game. (insert copy/paste comment).

I look at that gui and get reminded of touchflo, not the iphone.. which might be even worse, lol.

am i the only person who can't get ovi to really work ?
Maybe it's t-mobile screwin me over with it. hmm.

lmao @ mosh. i haven't used that in years.

so wait... you can get a subsidized e71 wit tmo for cheaper... or you could hold out for the e71x (if that ever happens)...

sheesh. i jus feel some kinda way about this e63.

I look at my bill for tmobile, versus the bill i would have with att....

and att is STILL more expensive. I jus can't bring myself to switch to att, just in the name of 3g. (my phone isn't gonna pick up t-mo's random ass band)

i was comin right here to ask which SMARTPHONE they were talking about !
