Here is my situation:

I travel quite a bit these days, and now that it includes Japan, I am hoing to get a 3G phone. I don't care too much about a music player, since I already own a nano. Here are the things I do care about:

1. Excellent reception (850Mhz for the U.S. if possible since I am on Cingular in the U.S.)
2. Tri-band with 3G
3. Speakphone
4. Bluetooth
5. Good battery life
6. Good pictures with camera (I've owned a Nokia 7610 and it took great pictures)

All the other goodies such as organizer features and such are bonuses. I've thought about getting the N70 for a while now (especially since Nokia has been flashing that phone all over CNN everywhere I go), but I wanted to see if there are any other options out there. Your input is well appreciated!
 
i had a 7610 ..... and .... the pics were not good at all ... and the video was HORRIBLE ............... i think MrWizard87 hit it right on the head with N80, thats pretty 1 of the top 5 phones available right now
 
N80 is a bit out of my range. Well, it's more like I don't need to spend $1G on a cell phone. The Sharp 903 looks interesting.... I am considering that. Any other suggestions?
 
sharp 903 is a great phone for you to use.. strong reception even tho it doesn't have 850 band.

another one to consider is the toshiba 904T or 903T.

n80 is great.. it won't be 1000 dollars for too long.. it'll drop back down to 700 bucks or less within a month.
 
After careful consideration, I think I am going to go with the 903SH. Minus the 850MHz, I think it has everything that I am looking for in a phone. The N80 is just cost too much for what I really need a phone for. My usage time won't be too much, it's more to have the WCMDA functionality for my Japan trips, and basically having a cool toy. I've used Nokia's and SE's all my life and it would be nice to try something different. Thank guys for all the input.
