After almost loosing intereest in nice phones after the awful NEC E606 3G-phone Im going to buy a regular GSM phone. Finally Nokia have got a nice looking phone with Bluetooth.
Im pretty convinced to choose the Nokia, having had Nokia since the 2110. Could somebody convince me o have another one? Whatbout Samsungs etc? I dont like clamshell phones.

No the3G phone was horrible. Not possible to send SMS between international carriers (network error though, not the phone also call hung up from handover from a 3G network to a 2G network) and the battery time was below all critisism, phone was too big, interface was bad and it was ugly as well. Cool to e-mail movies though from hit. Big dissapointment.
I have the Siemens S55. I don't care for a camera in my phone (crappy quality no matter what, I carry a Pentax Optio S4 with me) and the S55 is available now for a good price. The Nokia 6230 and SE T630 are not available yet and will be very pricey when they're launched. I have a Pocket PC as my PDA so I just need a phone with Bluetooth and no other fancy bits.

I was thinking of getting the 6230 for myself as well. I have a PowerBook (with iSync) and want to get a Bluetooth equipped phone. I don't care about camera, etc. I just want a good phone, with good interface, color, good reception, good build quality, etc.
Is the Nokia 6230 the way to go? I really don't know much about Nokias. I have a 6100 that I used in Europe this past summer and I was happy with it (except the build quality... felt very cheap and breakable).
Also, will the 6230 be available in the US? And if not, can I get it somewhere and have it be unlocked straight from the manufacturer, and how much will it cost?
