Nokia E61

Has anyone purchased and used the E61 from Nokia? I am interested in this phone given my disappointment with the SE P990 (no EDGE, no 850ghz) and its much higher price than the Nokia. Being a quad-band phone, I should be able to pop-in a Cingular SIM and be on my way.

From the photos, it looks like the Nokia is significantly smaller than a Treo, and even abit smaller than a Blackberry

I am more interested in its consumer-friendly features rather than business features - such as playing music, watching video content, messaging and web browsing. I didn't see any mention of a camera on the website, though...if this phone has no camera, then I guess it's back to considering a used SE P910A.

I have never been so frustrated than trying to pick a new phone. Choosing a laptop was cakewalk compared to picking something as dumb as a cell phone these days.
