Hi Barbara. Thanks very much for your feedback. I guess like everything
else once you got used to it the quirty would be ok but if the phone is
compact like you say it is then the keypad will be very compressed. I don't
even like using a laptop keyboard because of it's cramped nature but I
suppose in the case of the phone you would only use one finger so that might
help. the things I'm looking for are: good build, reliability, stability
(especially with Talks), good battery life, a good music player with lots of
capacity. I had thought of getting a new mp3 player but I've got kinda
spoiled with the music player on my 95. The ability to have talks help me
navigate through the track list is a great benefit. If I got an mp3 player
I wouldn't have any means of doing that unless the player could handle
Rockbox but that's going down a rout that means extra costs and
inconvenience. Therefore a phone that does both is a great advantage. Do
you know if the E71 has a direct USB port? Finally, although the E71 takes
an 8gig SD card, will it take a larger cardif required? Walter.

Hi Walter
I've only ever tested an E71 and never held an N96. However, I've heard bad
reports about the sound quality of TALKS on the N96, whereas I recall it
sounded fine on the E71. I personally don't like qwerty keypads on phones,
but that's a personal thing for me. The E71 felt nice and slim and having a
stainless steel casing, didn't feel cheap and plasticy at all. The back had
a kind of brushed steel finish, it did feel like quality and I did like its
build. If you aren't put off too much by the qwerty keypad, I'd go for the
E71, but that's just me!
