Are you a victim of purse dialing?

by IleneG , May 06 '01
Pros: Sliding cover phone, computer and palm pilot all rolled into one!
Cons: Ear piece doesn't fit in my ear!!
I have been a proud Nokia user for over 5 years. In those years I have been on both Analog and Digital phones. With each year, and every phone I noticed I was having more and more problems with what I like to call purse dialing!

Ok,...

Pros: Cool slide up/down keypad cover, browser, games, infrared port, organizer
Cons: Slightly bulky
Before I start this review, I want to say that I have never used this phone as my own. It is my friend's, but I have been using it alot. Personally, I will probably never switch to anyone other than Sprint. I am with them now, and will probably stay...

7160 reasons to buy

Cons: Sliding cover, metal plate heats up after long use, no vibrating battery

The Swiss Army Knife of Cellular Phones

by boxsterp , Aug 16 '01
Pros: Compatability, ease of use, batery life, signal strength, looks
Cons: Not a very 'solid' feel, but of course this is nit-picking
I recently came in cell phone market again after throwing my star-tac on the ground for the ump-teenth time. The star-tac was the most frustrating phone I have ever owned, and I strongly discourage anyone from buying it. From the day I bought it it was...

Looks like the Matrix phone

by mike96 , Sep 02 '01
Pros: Acts as PDA, easy to read screen, predictive typing, Othello/Reversi game, voice dialing
Cons: Vibrating feature not standard, antenna
It's not exactly the Matrix phone, but it does slide. I asked someone from Nokia at Comdex why it doesn't slide automatically, and he said it was only done for the movie (it was an older Nokia GSM phone too).

I upgraded from a 6161 and like...
