I have a 6210 which is not behaving, and would like to upgrade to a new phon. I have a Nokia car kit so am looking for a new Nokia that will fit.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance, Richard.

6310 does not fit in the car kit. It is classified a "personal use" phone, rather than "business use".

davyboy

.................yes it does fit, I have just upgraded 350 of my users from 6210 to 6310.

Intriguing...as the 2 6310s we have at home don't have the aperture...

hmmm....

Just to make sure we are talking about the same phone.......

.......a Nokia 6310 yesterday

ajm

Having gone from 6210 to 6310 I can say I recommend it, they seem to have fixed most of the glitches that I experienced with the 6210 e.g. loose battery, switching itself off, microphone sometimes ceasing to work, software crashing etc... all seem to be fixed

Great help chaps, Richard.

Yup - that's the bunny...

Mice,

You've been done! I've got both - co. just gave me a 6310 - identical appetures etc.

<muppet mode> Almost afraid to suggest this.. You have -er- realised that there is a little rubber bung over the upper connector (to the left of the nokia lettering and slightly down as you look at the back - stick a pencil down the side, and it can be popped out? </muppet mode>

Waiting for a slap...

If you have upgraded 350 users to 6310s what happened to all of the 6210s? I could do with a couple if they are for sale.

Shane, I'm sure Dave will answer but IIRC, he sold them to his staff. I'll let him confirm this.

I think there are 2 models the 6310 and the 6310i

MarkO

The 6310i is just Orange's version. All orange phones are locked to the network and have 'i' added on the end (hence the Ericsson T68i, etc).

I think.

BBB Gadget Man

The 6310i is the Tri band version i.e. can be used in the USA. The standard 6310 is a dual band phone which works on the four UK (and European) networks.

Suppliers are locking the phones to their networks to try and ensure some kind of "Customer Loyalty", so that if you change network you have to spend again to get yet another new phone.

davyboy

Its not difficult to unlock phones though, and very cheap. If you unlocked 2 for a fiver you would get your money back!

Shane - I am offering my users the opportunity to buy the phones before letting another company buy them. Although I could offer them to Scoobynet the admin time on me would be far to great. To be honest I think they are a crappy unreliable phone anyway, and can not believe my users want them.

You think wrong Mark

OK Dave

If there are any going dirt cheap be sure to let me know. They would keep me going until I can afford something else.

One? Heck I'll take three of them

Blonde I may be...completely thick I am not.

sempers

Soz Mice, I didn't know u were blonde

Would I be forgiven if I admit it took me a couple of mornings trying to stuff the new 6310 into the carkit to spot this I'm not blonde, nor (in theory at least) stupid
