Calander that syncs without Outlook (very handy...pity about outlook though)
Calculator
Addressbook that again syncs (so I have phone full of e-mail addresses and no phone no.s )
Notebook - quicker to use the sound recorder
Task manager/to do list (syncs with outlook, just incase I forget what my job is)
Camera (well, you never know)
MP3 player (anything beats commercial radio)
RDS radio (ok, I never use that...see above)
Remote control for the PC (very handy to skip tracks when using media player to play MP3s and you can't be arsed to reach for the mouse)
WAP - never use it, but its there
Dictaphone/sound recorder - rarely use it except when arsing about
Modem (no point...just hi-jack somebody's wireless connection )

Oh yes, and it's a phone
Which freakin phone is that

I gotta get me one

COuldn't agree more, flash mobiles always seems to be in the hands of flash ***** who are all image and no substance, or pikey/chav tossers.

My 6310i is still going strong (it's not battered in the deep fried sense either) and when it does eventually die I think I'm going to be at a loss to replace it

I bought one last month after using an 8310 for years and years - finally decided to update the phone, and dont regret it one bit.

Dont quite understand why people are moaning about the all in one phones, or saying they are "chav trinkets" or whatever - if you wear them round your neck then maybe

I payed for my phone as i'm on a cool PAYG contract and dont want to lose it, but its the best money i've spent - they work better than the old phones, are easier to use, smaller and have great features.

I like the camera on mine, useful for if you have a crash, drive over a pothole, etc etc to take evidence pics

MP3 player is awesome as well.

I would be coming from a nokia, so to buy one of those erricsons would be suicide (for the phone) as the functions all seem to be the oposite way round.
I'd end up throwing it at the wall or something

You'll be ok if you set up the shortcuts and as long as you don't do any texting...I still get it wrong now, mind, I couldn't text with the 8310 either

I've had Nokia's since 1997, so was slightly worried about moving to an SE but its even better than the Nokia's for me

Very intuitive to use, texting is better, menu's are better, in fact everything about the SE is better than my old Nokia's.
