New Phone and Service

[Keith Christian]

Hi Jonathan,

I thought that the N95 was the only phone it ran on.  I'll look into the
N82 also.

Thank you,

Keith

Hi keith, if reading documents while on the go is important to you, you
may want to consider the N82, which is an awesome phone and for now is
the only one that supports the KNFB Reader Mobile.

Hi,

Cingular is offering the N75 for $199 with a 2 year contract.
Letstalk.com is offering it for $49 with what looks like the same
contract. Have any of you had any experience with this phone?  Would you
consider a different phone and why?  


Thanks Stephen and others on the list for your advice so far, it has
been helpful.  


Keith
