Hi all.

I eventually plan to get out and about to look at these phones but I wondered 
if anyone had any opinions before I do.

Vodafone  do 3 phones it seems with WiFI and GPS that could work with Talks, 
Namely the N85, the E72 and the N97.  The N97 is touch screen so I tend to 
discount that.  The E72 is interesting.  I am yet to be convinced that a tiny 
qwerty keyboard is practical when typing.  I think I would rather have a keypad 
with buttons in a 3 by 4 configuration as if the keyboard is standard qwerty in 
layout I assume the numbers must end up in a row from 1 to 0 which would be 
quite different from using a number pad.  I have also heard that compromise in 
the audio side has been made that means Talks  is not so stable though I 
believe the latest talks release helps.

Then there is the N85.  the keys seem rather flat compared with the N95 I have 
but it appears to have  a conventional keypad as well.  I believe it uses an 
older symbian 3rd generation feature pack so calendar and in-built email work 
well.  I have read reviews that suggest poor design quality however the 
included options look good so the question is I suppose, is how manageable is 
the E72 and is it likely to struggle with JAWS and would the N85 therefore be 
the better ;phone to go for?

Regards 
Graham
