WTF is that thing - I thought styluses went out of fashion with kipper ties and flares.

Up to the moment as usual...

The stylus isn't an issue - There's only one gesture I can think of I'd use with that bloody Series 60/80/90 nightmare UI...

US mobile service providers offer the worst phones. They're all dumbed down and vendor locked.

My last 4 phones have all been nokia.

8290

n-gage QD

n70

n80 (which is ready for replacement).

I was so praying that the tube would come in a flavor for T-mo USA. Which as we all know uses 1700AWS for 3g. 1700MHz for downstream and 2100Mhz for upstream. Total pisser, since no useful phones actually support it yet.

I am clearly a nokia fanboy. I just wish I could get the latest nokia phones here without donating a kidney to pay for them.

Hey!
