what do you think of my first phone, the 3250. It can twist the keyblock :P

I had it!

came out in 2005 iirc. it had that gimmick with the twisting block.
it had good audio via headphones and great loudspeaker.

a nice phone but by no means a memorable one. it doesn't belong in Nokia's hall of fame. no way.

as for nokia music phones... look no further than the N91 and the 5800 XM (aka Tube). Honorable mentions go to the very very good N8 , N900 and the N9.

thats your opinion. for me the n8 browser is unusable. when i was waiting for my 3rd n900 to arrive i tried to use the n8 and got that frustrated i nearly smashed it. luckily my gf felt my pain and lent me her desire HD for a couple of weeks. was a decent experience, but no n900.

by the way i would only like the 808 to sell, as its worth the most.

symbian is dead to me, even though i followed nearly evey model since 7650. yeah it was fun at the time but now looking back, spending 500 pounds for half a feature per upgraid, i was a complete mug.

the browser of the N8 is a pain. but it's a smartphone and thankfully there's always opera though ( you don't stay with just IE on your PC , do you?)

anyways, the N8 is a highly successfull phone and excells in numerous ways.
materials, battery, support, hdmi out, gorilla glass, great loudspeaker and mp3 player, flawless camera, fantastic free and fast gps, usb-otg, 2 way charging, fm transmtter, radio with rds and more

stuff that you still struggle to find all packed-in in todays devices.
and let's not forget how great of a phone it is. signal, call quality and loudness.

it's unfair to compare it to the N900 (unfair for both devices)
N8 is a great smartphone. The N900 is in a different category. it's a mediocre phone (at best) and a great mini computer. the only device that hasn't bored me after 2 years of use.

i wish i could somehow "frankenstein" those two.

'Water damage' is the most used lie from Nokia warranty center...
