Default Nokia 6170

Looks like a nice phone, however seems to have missed out the bluetooth facility. Is this right? If not, how do you transfer between pc and phone without cables? In this day and age, I thought all new phones worth their salt had BT? no IR on pc btw.

Oh well, another 'almost' phone. Stick with me t610 I guess. Or are there any other 'aluminium' style phones that will rock my boat?

I have the 6170 and love it, just don't keep it in the same pocket as your keys, it scratches the metal covers

The phone does not have bluetooh so I bought a usb Infrared device for my PC from ebuyer

Works a treat

Keeping my T610.

at least until something else comes on the market that I like and does what I want. Just seems that every phone on the market lacks one or more of my requirements (which isn't a great big list btw). Some look good but don't do what I want, some do all that I want but look crap. Like my t610 an it does all I need although one day it'll break/wear out etc. (if I don't drop it first lol)
