Hello all!

I am new here. Just wanted some advice.

Apart from my regular mobile phone, I want a mobile phone that I can use for internet,email and Office. My requirements are:

-- Ability to create,read,edit MS Officer 2007 files (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx)
-- Ability to read and send attachments with emails

Will the 9500 be able to do that? With its built in software or with some upgrade?

Thank you

isnt s80 supposed to be a newer OS as compared to s60 ?

No. S80 is older than S60. The newest available Symbian OS is S60 5th edition (for touch screens), with Symbian 3 around the corner (end of this month, we're all hoping)

If you want a newer Communicator than the 9500, look for the E90. Runs S60 3rd edtion which you can still get QuickOffice and OfficeSuite for. Both of which will open and edit .Docx's.
