My IR works like a charm..

IR is located at the top black part of the phone.

I've got this phone and so have alot of my friends and we're all satisfied with it. The only problems i can see is that the camera is abit dodgy (dark) and my infared doesn't seem to work, least there is bluetooth tho :) I'd give this phone about a 7 or 8 out of 10

Sorry. About the 'dictionary' thing... wrote in the wrong forum =)..

By the way, does your D700 have the capability to add words into the dictionary?..

7650 is a SmartPhone.
T610 is just a phone.

Software wise, the Symbian SamrtPhone OS is more powerful than any standard phone os.

So the 7650 is good software wise as in can install new app and all.. But T610 can send full MMS, IR/Bluetooth which actually sends stuff (including midi)... 7650 can't send midi..

As for hardware, T610 wins overall.. T610's cons in hardware are it's memory and the camera... 7650's camera is better than the T610's camera.. 7650 also has speaker phone (Does it?)..but other than that, the T610 has better screen, better finish and built quality, more solid, better polyphonic speakers....

Can any one tell me that which of Nokia 7650 and SE T610 is better. Personally i like 7650 more but its a little bit big. But I dont know hows the photo quality of the camera is of the SE t610 and if it has night option or not. Whats the memory of t610? What is meant by STN screen? Can u add applications in it as in nokia 7650"?

Oh yeah.. Having Bluetooth and IR doesn't mean it has the same capability as Sony Ericsson's BT and IR..

Again, with referrence to the Nokia 7250i, Samsung V200 and Sony Ericsson T610...

While the T610 has option to send midis, pictures, themes, your entire contacts, appointments and all via IR, the Samsung can't do those.. neither can the Nokias... Nokia can send 'business' card with one name... not sure about the V200..

what phone are you using 'haha?'

D700 is of a total different class already =).. It's not a phone but a smartphone.. I though you were referring to a normal Samsung phone.. as all normal Samsung phones does not have function to save words into T9 Dictionary and is very messy...

Your phone's capability of adding words into the dictionary is not because of Samsung's work, but just that they chose a right OS for their smartphone which is Symbian. You can't compare Symbian phones to normal phones. Totally different class. Like comparing the P800 to the 7250i or something.

Meaning you were going to all the trouble debating just because you don't like the slow bit?.. I can't compare to a Samsung menu in the messaging thingy as I don't have one now. Had used one but can't really remember how it looked like. Samsung could have a faster processor... but then we know that faster processor normally eats up more power... thus the reason why Samsung's battery last so short... but then at least Samsung provides 2 battery. What phone are you using Haha?

Nice if they menu could be faster... but then that means taking away the details and all.. Oh yeah, Haha?, try a friend's T610.. download the theme 'Traditional'. You can see that things gets slightly faster as it doesn't show too much images... but the idea of all the extra menus at the top and bottom is still there, so still slow at times..

I do not work for SE at all.

I'm just saying you can't compare processor speed without knowing that the processor really is. Howabout this 'Haha?'. Imagine there's two computers. You don't know what processors is in there. XP runs normally and pretty alrigth, but slows down at times when loading while another is on DOS which is really quick. What I'm trying to say is that the software complexity of the SE's OS is very complex..

I'm asumming you're comparing it to a Nokia right?

Let's take one example.. messaging...
What do you see on a Nokia screen?
A line across the top and right side, with the word 'message' and the character lefts at the top.

Let's see the T610's write message menu..
You'll see the standard status bar at the top (shows battery, gprs, reception and what ever you have on such as bluetooth, ir, handsfree, profile....)
You'll see a backgrund at the top menu.. also at the bottom menu where 'Continue' and 'More' is and again, a different background. Then the main screen, you'll write new WITH another background and there you'll see a message box over the backgrund with image and text box telling if your on caps or not and also T9 or not.

See the differences?

Windows 98 works very fast on 3.0Ghz comp
