help choosing new phone.

[nevide]

guys. I desperately need a new cell. What's the best one out there right now? I prefer one with bluetooth since I have a hbh60. I'm staring at T610 but I hear that the display is really bad. What would you recommend? I prefer SE but any manuf is fine.

The only other phone that I can suggest to you is the SE Z600 (To be released 4th quarter 2003) it has bluetooth and the same operating system as the T610 with the only two differences being (1) It's a flip phone & (2) It has a TFD screen as opposed to a STN screen which should make it better for use in direct sunlight. Click HERE (http://forums.mobileburn.com/showthread.php?threadid=132&perpage=15&pagenumber=3) and scroll doen to see the 2 pics posted by Aristo showing the Z600 & T610 screens side by side.

So if you can wait a few months (A hard thing to do when you want a new phone :D ) the Z600 might be your best bet or alternatively just go to your nearest phone dealer and ask to have a play around with the T610 and see if you can live with the screen.

Motorola V600 should be out any day now. I have not tested one yet, but it has the base specs that you probably want.
