What do you need the phone to do? If you don't want a super camera the SE K610i is a nice lightweight functional phone and looks miles better than the 800 IMO.

I upgraded to the 900 from the D600 and apart from the 3 mega pixel camera and the pretty useless "vivid text messaging" its pretty much the same phone.

wish I'd gone for the n73 now although I hear there are firmware problems still.

I have the D600 which is due for a change fairly soon, really impressed with it so the D900 seems a good change. If you have it on ring and vibrate does it ring and vibrate at the same time or does it vibrate for about 30 secs and then ring? The D600 does this and annoys the **** out of me, i never get to hear my ringtone!

i`ve got the D900 and yes it vibrates and rings at the same time but you still can`t have your own sms message tone. Cameras good though.

DON'T get an N73.

Has Symbian software so less user friendly than an Elise Taxi for the obese.
