I've heard nothing but bad things about the V3. Enough to put me off the V3i.

Shame, cause I liked the V3.

I'm waiting for a new nokia to come out, think its the N91 (its the N series flip phone)

Do you have any preferences? eg, manufacturers, cost, etc.

N91 is not a flip phone, its a generic upright jobby with a 4 gig HD

Most people seem to moan alot about the battery life on the V3.

Nothing wrong with the battery life on mine - it's just a pity everything else about it isn't so good

I only ever upgrade once the phone has been lost or died, its a phone not a life style statement for me I know about 5 people with either the v3 or the v3i, none of which have had problems.

v v happy with my v3i, well put together, has all the necessary toys, camera, video, mp3 etc etc makes calls, works fine, its a phone, job done until I lose it

The configuration of the V3i is a pain in the **** (because the menus aren't that logical), but saying that I bought one yesterday in the absence of anything better. Was also tempted by the Nokia 8800 but the battery life sucks, which just isn't acceptable for me as I do a lot of travelling.

The V3i comes with an 64mb removeable memory card which is nice
