tkmeister,
those E61 questions accumulated over the night and going through reviews:
- is it true you have to predefine wifi access points (no autoconnecting as you walk)
- is Flash displayed within the html, or standalone only? What about opera mobile?

Just bought this yesterday. Needed a quad band phone and my ipod has started playing up so figured what the hell.

Seems nice so far but my fave bit is the digital fm radio. God, I'm getting old.

have you managed to test that site I emailed you tkmeister?

Yeah, a couple of my friends have that phone.
But not really interested in all the music features it has.

Sony Ericsson all the way, which one is your choice, I have the K610i http://www.sonyericsson.com/spg.…
Doesn't come in Red though.
I also hear the the Nokia N90/91 is v. good

I know you're not interested in music, and neither am I but every new phone has music capabilities...
You can't find a phone anymore that does the bare minimum without lacking in call clarity, and general aesthetic appeal.
All I really want is text messaging and bleu tooth, yet I have to pay like 400+ for that now.
It's bollocks.

the browser is very usable. i can check out NT from it. that's somehting, isn't it?
WIFI is excellent. i set up VoIP and i can use gizmo account to make cheap international calls over WLAN.
it's been only a week since i got it but i love this device. it feels soooo solid in my hands with aluminum casing in the back. i love the simple design. it's a mean lean device, my friend.
now E62 is out in US but E61 features is definitely worth extra.

jamble-
i hate the OS for that very reason- it is MS! it is the most unintuitive thing in the world and reinforces to me why widows is such a poorly designed UI. that said, it only took me about a 3 days to successfully set up an email account on it and all i do is use computers all day long!! i mean, c'mon..
now, w/ all that said, i have everything set up and have for a while and it works pretty damn well. the thing does lock up on me consistantly, the keyboard speed is rediculously slow, and i still cannot transfer video or audio files to it w/o it crashing, but as a smartphone in the US, it is about as good as it's gonna get for bit.
also- when i was looking for one (4 months ago) the nokias listed here were not available. wish they were...

thanks, tk, it would be nice to hear more about video capabilities of this thingy..

E61 does auto search on WIFI points so it'll show what access points are available and you can also preset to ask before it connects. i have it set so it'll ask where i want to connect through. so if i am using web, it'll ask how do i want to connect? t-zone(edge connection), wifi access point, etc.
flash works within a web browser. i just checked NT from it and the QBN Certified slided to the left.
I am not sure if opera has flash capability. it's not as good as default nokia browser.i am still very new to this so i am finding out a lot of things.
here's a good site to read about it.
