Um SE joysticks are a love em or hate em thing, you get a good one that works, or you get a bad one that you gotta clean all the time, but yes the k800 is a good phone and reliable (haha you must think thats a joke coming from me, but the Erom bug is no longer a problem), and yeah its 3G so its faster then GPRS, nice lil phone :)

k800 is rubbish for browsing even with opera mini you will find the phone constantly restarts itself especially when browsing content heavy websites.Any Nokia s60 KILLS k800 in every department except camera

You two couldn't have a more different opinion. I'm gonna get it. It's cheap and I'm guessing anything will be better than my 3220

Dude your a thats talking ...... go run back to the Nokia forum coz were honestly sick of seeing muppets stiring about the all mighty Nokia saying this and that and talking like they fell out god himselfs a*se, do you honestly think anyone listens to it? and ill put my name on the fact its good phone and great for browsing, maybe not as good as an HSDPA but its one of the best 3G.

Yeah id recomend it chewie i use one myself its a great phone, but i think the you two should be changed to nokiaman, maybe take a second look at my first message mate

Yeah, I mean 'nokiaman' and you obviously disagree. Thanks, I'm gonna get it. I llke Nokias, but the guy in the shop said 'it will break, get the K800i'.

Yeah Nokia's do that, so do Sony Ericsson but there overoll more reliable, and the k800 is one of the more reliable SE's now as the EROM problem that hownded it when it was released has been fixed, but the answer is yes the joysticks do clog up alot and need TLC every now and then, but its a very nice phone and currently the best value for money (out of every manufacturer) at the minute in my opin

@chewie...and wif diezi1 by ur side u nid nt wory a single bitgo 4 k800..

Will do. If it's rubbish, I'll be sure to let you know. Just out of interest, what do you all think is the very best phone money can buy?

Ive go the k800i wicked fne

TYTN II blows the lot (or it could be called tnty II confuses me everytime)

Its a nightmare on wap with that stupid joy stick. It keeps jumping to things i dont want

@chantel: download opera mini mod from rangers,wen,ru n use th keypad 2 scroll.

the man at the shop was talking cr*p, nokias dont break any more than se, its just that they have targets and they have to sell more of certain phones/contracts etc

K610i no joystick and 3g

@chantel, yeah that does bug me a little also, try pushing left and right, left goes up and right goes down (SE maybe noticed the JS lol).

SE phnes are xtremely reliable, i've had a k700i for 4yrs nw, and the joystick works perfectly

Oh yeah.... the left and right thing only works while browsing wap

Ok, I've bought it and it is a very good phone. Only downside is the keypad is a little small for my manly hands:-) thanks for the help. Anyone thinking of buying one - get it. Excellent value for money.

GREAT choice. happy cyber-shooting lol
