But I'm confused. Are you saying that Nokia's version of Symbian is different than SE's or that it runs better on the Sony?
The SonyEricsson is not a symbian device.

I'd be annoyed if it really dragged, as that's one of the things that drives me crazy about my Razr.
cressers suggests that UI speed is not an issue with this phone, my experience with other recent phones (N70, E60) has been that Nokia had not solved speed/responsiveness issues to my liking. If they have now, thats great.

My W960i is quad band;

* GSM 900
* GSM 1800
* GSM 1900
* UMTS 2100

The price is slightly higher, largely because the device is targeted to a feature set that had many things you did not specify as important.

The primary reason I recommend the SonyEricsson over the Nokia was the responsiveness issue I have seen in other Nokia models, so if that doesn't exist, the the E65 is going to be a fine phone.
