It just got finished by Sony Ericsson, and is up to T-Mobile whether or not they are going to carry it. It has Bluetooth and should work fine with iSync.</p> The S700i might not be a bad upgrade for you either Chris.

Oh and of course it has bluetooth and works with mac os x fully. Did I mention it even has additional functions in mac os x, like navigation in mac os x and the ability to control iTUnes/keynote/powerpoint WITHOUT additional software? Apple have provided the functionality already!</p> <p>Dave</p> If you want a t610 replacement, the K700i is a great model that does pretty much all this samsung model does but doesn’t have an mmc slot. the z600 was a good model (I upgraded from it) but it didn’t have mp3 ringtones and speakerphone, which the k700i does, and the K700i has a better camera and icons.

It has no bluetooth. I bet you can’t install 3rd party software to it. I bet you can’t beam images & sound files via IR to any nokia phone and vice versa.

I agree with @vishi… go for symbian phones! You won’t regret it. ˆº

Cannot afford the P900 as yet. So that is why I always go with the phone that does the most - i.e. 9 out of 10 things for me. Maybe when the Nokia communicator comes out, I will totally switch to symbian!</p> See there are such limited symbian options in the US. sign up with AT&T and you can get nokia 6620 which i actually like.
