Review:
Being a 6'5" ex rugby player businessman...I suffer from big hands and thumbs. I drove an E50 for a while, nice phone, but like so very many of the things, it was built with tiny buttons for small people with average sized hands. The screen is clear, the default font size is big enough for us oldies, the device stays clean as it closes y'know! So far, I just love the thing.
PS I am NOT one of those types who ring home to say ... "i'm coming home, dear". I use mine for business, yes, actually calling and receiving calls from clients and suppliers! Also texting and email. The radio is good, but it really could do with presets, the mp3 facility is just dandy.
I dont use the web, but I do use the alarm clock and am looking forward to many happy months together.

Latest Mobile phone Reviews
BlackBerry Storm 2
Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks
INQ Mini 3G
Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
BlackBerry Bold 9700
Has everything that makes the BlackBerry format great, but other smart phones offer more innovation
