Have a look at this. I demanded Ed of voible.com.
He’s installed a rather smart black and white theme which he reckoned was ’shit hot’ — although I wasn’t quite sure of this until I saw the actualy picture. Very nice indeed, isn’t it?
An SMS Text News reader recently remarked to me that he was surprised that I hadn’t already taken delivery of an E61i, given that the handset is available for £299 inc VAT on the UK Nokia Store.
The answer? Well I don’t actually feel that drawn to the device any more. That’s because I’ve got my funky N95 which is pushing all my buttons at the moment. The N95 is my primary handset, whilst my (old) E61 is the slave handset, running my email and functioning as a mobile web browser.
I just don’t feel the pull of the E61i. Not enough to splash out good cash on it.
I shall upgrade in time. I’ll wait until you can pick’em up new on eBay for 150, I reckon…

hey i hear the N95 is pretty good but the battery life is crap. i already use my E61i so hard the battery dies evertday by 8pm cant imagine hw much faster i would kill an N95 battery. Besides the e61i with a camera is a complete phone for my needs meaning i just dont need another phone in my pocket now which is awesome & the reason i didnt buy the original (no cam).
besides that on a head to head i don’t need gps as i got gmaps mobile & awesome gps for the car. lastly wide-screen is my preference for all things mobile or not.
just my thoughts…cheers
Fyi i published this response with my sexy new E61i
