S685 set turned up the other day and have had a good chance to try it out ... Voice quality is definitely superior to the M3 though I guess that will be addressed in the M9 with G722 support. Impressions of the Siemens phone :- Pros ---- Great Voice Quality Easy to configure Good range Ability to transfer address books Good build quality Cons ---- Keys feel fiddly Keys response time when dialling is very slow When call connection is made a audible beep is heard which cuts of the first .5 second of a VM message DTMF does not all transfer correctly On the whole it seems a very capable phone and very well laid out. For my personal needs it just does not feel right with how the keys react. Hopefully the M9 will be released very shortly so I can make a comparison. Thanks to everyone's replies.
