Hey! I too am undecided between these phones, mainly because they’re so similar I can’t decide. I’m actually looking for a decent camera, chat( MSN), and emails, I was looking at the Bold, E·71 and the Samsung Jack here in Mexico, and they are all pretty much the same, except the screen resolutions and OS, the Samsung has WinMo 6.1 std and is said to upgrade to 6.5, really the most attractive thing on this device is the MSN messenger and hotmail and it’s like 200 dollars cheaper. My question would be, based on your experiance with the Bold, and given the info on what I’m looking for, would you consider the Bold a better email/chat device than the other 2 for me? The camera res doesn’t really bother me as long as the pics come out nice and clear. The Curve 8900 would’ve been on my list except it doesn’t have 3G, so any help?

Well, one of my friends is going from WinMo to BB. He said he didn’t know what he was missing this whole time. And in my humble opinion, Symbian is the best OS there is…better than BB too. I just like the email ability that my Bold brings to the table. I think you’ll really like the Nokia and Symbian better than your WinMo setup. There’s no coincidence that Nokia (Symbian) holds something like 50% of the smartphone market.

How do you like the Symbian OS on the E71? I’ve been considering the Nokia, but I’m coming from a WinMo touchscreen phone and I’m not sure how I’d like Symbian.
