I have a SE P1i which has served me reasonably well. My main complaint though is the 4 function keypad - it's often hard to hit the right corner to get the key you want.

Anyway looking for an upgrade and wondering what are the options. I would like all the features of the P1i but in a better package!  Just don't know what is out there now.

BTW the camera is nice (would like a faster camera) and the Exchange Sync is important. Blackberry Connect is nice also - just haven't managed to get it working yet.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Have a look at the devices running the new-ish Symbian S60 V5 operating system - there's the Nokia 5800 available in NZ now, and several other models/brands coming soon. This OS would appear to combine the best of Symbian 9 with a similar touch interface to the now-defunct UIQ 3 which your P1i runs.

Good luck with your search!

Thanks. Looks like a cool phone but seems more consumer oriented. For example there appears to be Exchange Mail client but no Blackberry Connect and there's no wifi that I could see
