  1. Nokia 6190 by rosewood · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I guess this is my last phone "phone" :(

    I love my 6190! It is a great regular phone with amazing super powers. Good size, good features, and it probably is the best phone I have ever had. I would feel weird with something with that big of an LCD in my evil pockets.

  2. Nokia scheduling lies by lxdbxr · · Score: 2, Interesting

    For me, Nokia's scheduling FUD is going to work against them - I was waiting for the 6260 to become available before upgrading but despite having a release date of Q3 2004 and heavy advertising it is proving impossible to get hold of (on Orange, in the UK). Now instead I will wait for the 7710 but I'm not holding my breath expecting it to come out in Q4 2005 as announced.

  3. A camera, too? by centauri · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I was excited to think I could get all that without the bother of a camera (it's a no-no at work), but then I found out it actually does have one. When I wondered why that wasn't mentioned in the headline, I realized that most people just assume all phones come with cameras.

    Read the specs, it's 900/1800/1900Mhz. Will work fine in the U.S. I'm sure they'll be selling on eBay shortly.

    Being a power-of-2 times a product of distinct Fermat Primes, this means that a regular 7710-gon is constructible with ruler and compass.
