Stumbled across this little beauty.... seems promising, and is cheaper than the P800... could it be an alternative???

Yeah, I read a review some time ago, it's a great phone.

Speaker is apparently incredible, that's the best improvement. The unit is ugly to my taste though, and VERY important to my needs, it's only a DUAL Band.

Other pros:
better stylus, better mem card, better screen

Cons:

Dual band, bad design, even w. warranty the tech. support is not going to be anywhere near SE, because it is not as big a company. So...upgrades...Where do you get them. Where do you fix it? e.t.c

No SymbianOS here, and afaik you can't install any software on this phone (not even J2ME), at least there's no word about that on the website.

.... and, of course, no bluetooth.

Could be a good present for someone less demanding
though (wife) ? 😃

I think its just a P800 wanna be. And a poor one at that. Besides i'm so happy with my P800 and the way i see it, i'll be using it for a long long time 😊
