I had read about these in various forums. Haven't these issues been fixed yet by a newer firmware version?
I was considering this because it looks much better than the 6085 although it lacked the card slot. But I don't want to buy problems, even cute ones.:D

How does the Samsung E250 measure up against the Nokia 6085 in ease of use, call voice quality, battery stamina, phone book size and convenience? It certainly is much cuter in my opinion.

Ok guyzz here goes ... recently cmpny banned usage of camera phones in office ... own a n72 .. gotta change ... please help... requirements follow:
1.No Camera ... (no means no)
2. Budget: 14k
3. Good connectivity: 3g, bluetooth, edge, wifi capable of handling web based /java apps.
4. Music
5. Video playback
6. Mem slot
7. Touch screen
8. All the other goodies like FM, MMS etc.

It is a pda without a cam. But I do not want the big flat/fat ones like E62, Blackberry models etc.

I did research myself and found SE W950i to be perfect:
Sony Ericsson - Mobile phones - Overview - W950i

But it seems it is not available now. The other one that I liked is:
Sony Ericsson - Mobile phones - Overview - M600i
But it is out of my budget.

As you can see though I have not listed it in my requirements, looks do matter a bit, I want it to be a bit sleek and slim.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately,every good model worth recommending for the above features and budget ,HAS a camera.so you could consider a camera..

else there's the good old Nokia E62(9.4K) without cam & wifi or if possible try looking for the 'Camera-free' version of the Nokia E51( maybe around 10k)..

Nokia E51 camera-free - Full phone specifications
