Decisions, decisions...

I am tossing up between two phones.

The Nokia 7600 or the NECe616.

This is an important decision. I'm going to have to deal live with this damn thing phone for the next two years.

Nokia
Pros:
- More initial memory
- It's a Nokia (I know how to use it, I know its features, etc)
- Comes with funky pouch and wrist strap
- Can customise look with different coloured covers

Cons:
- Can't upgrade memory
- Weird shape
- No radio
- Buttons are a little sus

NEC
Pros:
- Big screen
- Flip-top
- Has USB cord
- Two (front and back) cameras
- Up to 500 contacts (with all the information humanly possible for that person)
- Comes with two batteries - high capacity and standard (why you'd need two I don't know...)
- Is only silver

Cons:
- Less initial memory
- Big (but only 10g heavier)
- No radio
- I would have to learn how to use it

They're both on the same plan - AUD$33 a month for 24 months, with 150 free SMS's a month. (If I chose that option. The other options are too cool aswell. But I think I'll go with the SMS's first.) Beats Telstra's deal - $20 a month, older phone and 50 SMS's a month. However, their phone has a radio. *sulk*

I'm going to go and play with them again for a while, and see what happens.

Opinions? Background knowledge? Secret under-the-table knowledge? Preference?

Yay. :D

Nope, I still have it. :) Don't dial the 0, right?
