Need Advice from Mobile Phone Experts

Post by Derek »

I'm looking to get a new phone and have shortlisted down to the following four:

Blackberry Curve 8320
HTC Touch Diamond
HTC Touch 3G
Nokia E61i

Looking to surf the Net on the go and reply emails as sometimes, doing it in the office is taking up too much of my time.

Any particular recommendations or testimonials for the above would be appreciated. Thanks

what kind of email server? If you are using exchange, then nothing beats (sadly) a winmo phone. If you are using google mail, nothing beats an android.

thread hijack but i thought it's better than starting a new one.

I'm looking to get a good phone ( non-camera) since i'm entering army soon, basic functions but lots of memory and durable as I want to listen to music on the go( maybe even while running/ weight training ). Budget under $100 w/ student plan lol. been using a borrowed one since I lost mine and I need to return it to my friend soon.

Any recommendations are appreciated. Thanks : )

If you're interested, I can sell you my Motorola W220 for $50. Headpiece included for radio, but unfortunately no storage for MP3s. Battery life is still pretty decent - with moderate usage it can last three to four days at a full bar.
