Nokia 6600
Anyone else got one of these?
So far I like it... Vast improvement over the 3650... The LCD is MUCH brighter and I suspect the LED's driving it are an extra battery drain as well... Batter life seems a little lower than the 3650 so far... or it could be that Nokia has an honest battery meter now ?

Just got one last week. It's a very neat tech toy, but the interface is a bit dysfunctional. It's top heavy, the menuing system is sluggish, your finger is guaranteed to smudge the camera lens when writing SMSes, the menu keys are offset from the screen edge, I keep hitting "right menu" (which cancels the message!) instead of "C" (backspace)... nothing critical, just annoyances that have usually been absent from Nokia products.
And I still miss my old 6800's keyboard.

I have one and the biggest disappointment is the ringing volume. Compared to my other Nokia's (7210) it is terrible. I took it to Nokia Care Centre and they could not make it any louder and told me it was because of the new design.
I am popping an email off to Nokia Tech to verify this.
Anyone else notice the lack of clarity and loudness?

Expect Sendo to have the recievers knock on the door soon... Since they dropped the MS smartphone their forecasted revenue stream went down the tubes. They didn't ship the Series 60 device till NOW... They are in MAJOR financial situation now.</font>

So what do you think my chances are of tweaking the volume settings (through NCC of course)either here in HKG or in AUS?</font>
