My Next Phone?

March 31, 2004

Engadget reports on the arrival of the Motorola V600, a quad-band GSM mobile phone with bluetooth and camera. Mobile Burn digs the V600. This looks like a snazzy phone. If it were $299 cheaper, I'd be there.

On the other hand, the Sony Ericsson T610 also has Bluetooth and a camera, is much less expensive and is not a flip phone. However, I get lousy reception at my place with its predecessor (T68i) on the same network. With an actual antenna, the V600 should have better reception.

Not that I am in any rush to get a new phone, but I would like to be able to use my cell phone in my apartment without leaning up against the window.
