You could have mentioned the os it runs on but ofcourse it always rests on the camera resolution with you reviewers - a feature thats a novelty with most users, since beyond snapping the cat its of little other use.
Clamshell phones have always had the better ergonomics aswell as the best reception. And this has that coupled with a near qwerty keypad - surely you of all people could have seen the positives in that?
If this handset runs on a s60 platform than you have a sure-fire winner

Well being a new nokia s60 is most likely on the agenda and when the phone is not out yet what else can you talk about than stats and look?
O and on flip phones. Thats all people use in japan. Massive flip phones with top notch screens, sure suprised me :)

@ffrankmccaffery - if you follow the link you'll know I'm going off the only information provided from a story in POLISH - that's why don't mention the OS. Clamshell phones certainly don't have better reception than many other formats either and SureType divides as much as its unites users. As an iPhone owner too clearly everything rests on a camera resolution.

Really don't get much of this comment.

@Lord - agreed, though funnily enough the flip/clamshell factor is dying everywhere else in the world: too bulky. The slider and touchscreen candybar are killing it.

I don't understand why flips aren't more popular. A protected screen, bigger keypad, if manufactuers still invested in them they could easily better these ridiculous sliders that are everywhere.

comment Gordon said on 25th November 2008

@Joe - they require two screens for a start to make and the exterior display certainly isn't protected. They also tend to be fatter and heavier than their candybar and slider equivalents and require a bigger, more expensive and robust central hinge.

Secondly, the public seems to be moving away from them seeing them as old fashioned - they're just not 'in' anymore. A shame in a way as I remember my Sharp GX10 and GX20 with great affection. I suspect however it is a format is gradually on its way out.
