...oh, I get up to 230Kbps Internet on the laptop-to-phone-via-Bluetooth and if you get just the Cingular/AT&T MediaNet plan you get unlimited Internet including that high speed GPRS (not 3G, however but for $19.95 for all you can eat, it comes in handy.) . . . j o n a t h a n

It goes 10 days standby with a little talking and can watch 2 movies on one battery...which is, unlike the iPhone, also swappable so I take a half dozen batteries on trips for 20 movies++ before I need to recharge which can be done via USB directly or to a tiny external charger. However, for me, the best improvement over the E61 was the hotter Wi-Fi. It doesn't have GPS but the tiny Holux links to Google maps and I use it. . . . j o n a t h a n. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of D.

I am pretty impressed with it so far. If you download the java based Opera you can even manage Tranzeo CPE/APs! (the iPhone crashes on the Base64/java conversion thing) Usually I carry around my Macbook to fix problems on my network when I am away from home. This fall I was able to go to the fair with my family and not lug a laptop in the car with me. It made the purchase worth it right there! The tethering to a laptop via bluetooth is nice as well. ryan -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of V Proffer Sent: Friday, October 12, 2007 2:37 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: RE: [WISPA] Why the Nokia E70 is better than the iPhone Another phone that does wifi is the cingular 8525. It is good for checking out hotspots, too. ~V~ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Hammett Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2007 11:42 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Why the Nokia E70 is better than the iPhone Nice.
