(keitai-l) Re: Nokia i-Mode?

I guess I just watched "The Matrix"
too much.  :-)  But the sliding cover is a fun gimmick.

-------- this is going to sound quite sad but..... (he he he)
Nokia spent millions on advertising the WAP Nokia 7110 as the phone that is
used
in the matrix coming up to the launch of the film. When the film came out
the phone
used was just a crummy Nokia 5146 or GSM 8110. 
I guess everyone else has seen cellphones completely mis-advertised and
marketed

Oh Well...its an early wednesday morning!! :-)

I also have the NM502i and really like it a lot.  Playing the games
on it was a great way to get used to the feel of the buttons.  And
while the use of the buttons is quite different from the NEC models
I was used to, I've found the interface to be pretty good.  The more
I play around with it, it is pretty easy to use.

Although I must also add that I was waffling about buying Sony's
as well. That jog dial and being able to save email into folders
(I think) looks really appealing.  I guess I just watched "The Matrix"
too much.  :-)  But the sliding cover is a fun gimmick.

So I'd recommend either one.  If the store in Shimokitazawa had
a Sony and not a Nokia the day I went in, I probably would've gotten
the Sony.
