thanx grudge
and well done too

my 2 bits which i couldnt contribute to the review :

abt the build quality:
yeah it seemed very flimsy
and for the first few days i used the phone only in browse mode ...cuz i felt the top shell would break apart if too much force as applied
however this wasnt the case
the build is stronger than it looks and im confortably usin the phone in work mode now ... and flip it open every time theres a call
ofcourse tha autoanswer on flip is turned off

abt the keypad:
this turned to be a disappointment even tho the keys were very good and easy to press.
in work mode using the keys on the upper shell and shifting to use the keys on the lower shell can be tedious
this is specially irriatin while playing games that ould require keys on either shells. stay away if u have small hands.
the 4 way direction keys are nice ... but could be a little difficult to get used to considering the more ergonomic keys .. as seen even on the 6610.
the centre button amongst the directional keys is pretty easy to use and doesnt get in the way.
also u wont press the directional keys by mistake if u want to press the middle button.

My Oipinion:
for a normal user .. despite of the negatives .. still a VERY GOOD option if u dont already own a symbian phone.
i LOVE this phone .. however i dunno why i miss my 6610 a lot
while i figure out why ... let ur eyes soak one nokias first clamshell/swivel type symbian phone.
its a beauty isnt it ?

pics from cam comin up soon..
stay tuned
