Nokia 5100 Reviewed

An anonymous reader writes "Just read a review of Nokia's 5100 mobile phone. This phone has an integrated flashlight, FM tuner, a calorie burn application, sound meter and thermometer. And yet there is no Bluetooth capabilites. Is the cell phone market getting so desperate that companies are adding everything including the kitchen sink to sell these phones? Why would you want a sound meter or a calorie tracking application in a cell phone?" Looks like a good phone for people who like phones to look gaudy. Bells and whistles aside, the flashlight feature sounds pretty practical. A sound meter though?

Hey, you have a T610. I'm considering one of those to replace my T68i with at upgrade time, but I've not been able to find one to play with yet. From what I've heard, it's very similar to the T68i but much, much quicker. How are you finding it? Is it as fast as I've been led to believe?
