Nokia 3650 Released in US Market

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the get-your-lust-on dept.

A Swing Dancing Dork writes "Check out the new Nokia 3650! Video and still imaging, MMS support,Bluetooth,Triband, and polyphonic bliss all wraped up in a uber-modern package." I was looking phones all morning so I'm glad this showed up. Anyone have advice on cel phones? I'd like IMAP, HTTP, and IM, as well as PDA functionality that can sync via bluetooth to a Mac. I was looking at the Sony Ericsons, but this may work as well.

    I should have had FP, but no, the stupid 2 post a day limits is STILL in effect. When are you fucknuckles gonna learn? I'm not going to go away. It's my duty to provide real humor and insight to the Slashdot community.

      the one that bungled the CLIT. Of course, CmdrTaco and friends have never come close to a clit in real life, so it makes sense that they wouldn't know how to handle one.

      anyway, I've got to get back to masturbating, crying, and calling myself the Messiah. I hope my answer helped.

    We've had such phones, and more importantly, the network infrastructure, in Japan for a year or two, and people actually use them. Network usage is cheap, so people do indeed use video and pictures as a primary form of messaging. In Japan, the phone, not the PC is the primary Internet access platform. We even designed our Gameboy Advance and SP to be compatible (in Japan only) with mobile phone hookups for online gaming.

    Now the US is still playing catch up, and I'll bet US cell phone companies will charge you a arm and a leg, ensuring such features are relegated as a novelty for marketing or a small niche of people, like police or real estate work.

    I only wish Japan was on the GSM standard, so that I could use my J-phone while overseas.

      "Just one more thing to lose."

      Obviously, you are very concerned with losing stuff, hence you protect it all with your life. Except for your virginity, you couldn't lose that if you tried.

      whore!

    "how irritatating it would be to try and dial that thing, with the buttons not layed out in the traditional, muscle memory configuration. Oh sure, you can use voice recognition, or look up numbers on a list, but even with all that enabled, I still end up *dialing* my phone about 50 - 60% of the time, and trying to deal with that keypad combination would suck, especially with numbers where you can only remember it by dialing it."

    Did you also bitch when they switched from rotary dialers to touch tone? We handled the change back then, and unless you have an IQ well below 100, I think you can handle this too.
