What I really like about all these new, extremely thin cell phones is how you can now hear both sides of the conversation. It used to be hard to follow the discussion because you could only hear the side of the conversation, that being from the person sitting near to you. Now, with these super slim phones, there is no padding behind the loudspeaker, and the other party comes through loud and clear. Not only can you now hear the boyfriend cursing and bitching, but you can hear the girlfriend bitching back! Why, oh why, do these fools seem to just want everyone to hear of their private lives?

Re: [CGUYS] Nokia cell phones
Mine, which is not so low end (it is more high-end than I would have bought but it was a gift) is having problem with being in headset mode (erroneously). This means I have to use the loudspeaker always (or actually plug in a headset maybe). At the very least it may take a disassembly and cleaning to fix. This is a known (i.e. common) bug.

Re: [CGUYS] Nokia cell phones
Does anyone on the group, that lives in the DC-Metro area, use this type of cell phone? Christopher Yes. I have an 1100, 3595, 6010, 3220. I also have a Samsung flip phone that I hate. All get good reception, but flip phones are pointless--takes more effort to use--sliders aren't too bad, but candy bar phones are easiest. Microphones and speakers on our Nokia phones are much better than on Moto phones. Moto phones only sound good when you use bluetooth. The Slvr and Razr sound awful. Nokia bar phones are as close as you can get to being indestructible [like Shure mics], except when you drop one that's turned on into a Big Gulp lie my son did. I accidentally dropped my 3220 from an outside staircase onto concrete. The cover came off, but the battery stayed in place; phone works fine, so does camera--rubber bumpers are fine too. Don't try this with your Razr, Krzr, or Slvr unless you're ready to buy a new phone. Nokia phones are the easiest to unlock using simple codes. Other phones require a dongle or special software from your provider or mfg. My main complaint with Nokia is that there are fewer world phones for sale in the US than other companies--lots of triband, fewer quadband. Both Cingular/ATT and T-Mobile have good networks in the DC metro area. For other than GSM networks, I don't know.

As mine reaches its one-year anniversary I went looking for an upgrade. After much sampling and thinking I decided to keep the one I got. Well, The reason for my original question is because, I still have an earpiece from, the Nokia phone I had. I am pretty sure it is still good and, I don't want to throw it out.
