a relaible one that actually rings when you receive a call and not once the caller has already left a voicemail.

Screw the phones..build more towers and transmitters. Dropped calls suck( I know thats kinda outta yer control)

Im basically fine the way phones are now. In fact I think there are wayy to many add-on bullchit now as it is. Next thing ya know..cells will be wiping our ass\' after dropping a duece!!!!

i love my Sony J6 ..bacuse you can sample WAV files as noises and Ring tones.

At the moment i have the Codec power up and Down sound for swithing it on or off

and i have the codec Ringing beep as me Ring Tone.

Now all i need it a Sneaking suit and a P90 and i can then "Take Care" of Quddus ;)

how about i get nokia (as if i could but anyway..) to close a deal with nintendo about combining a phone with the GBA, since mobile networks quickly is turning TCP/IP (packet switched) instead of the old circut switched. You can be online all the time and you pay for teh amount of data not uptime. Wireless online gameing with a GBA with pause function for incomming calls !

No matter how many features they add there is only one that you really use the phone for.  To making freaking phone calls.

And cut out all the fancy ring crap.  Make them all ring at low volume and/or vibrate.  It bugs the shizit out of me when people have their ringers on loud as if they are going to be needing to hear the phone ring from across the street or something.  The dang thing is about 3 feet from your ear people.

How about we make them not cause cancer. That would actually be one that I would be up for.

WHile I agree with the beginning of yer statement. I have to disagree with the ring tones. At work, we all have cell phones...6 of us. Out of the 6, 3 have 2 phones. We NEED to have several different ringers.

I also have to complain about the volume statement. We need to answer those incomming calls for business purposes and its hard to hear a phone ringing low when you have air compressors on alot of the time. Air tools going, a car running on the dyno..etc.

Same goes for women who have their phone inside of their purses...etc..etc..



Like I said earlier..phones dont need more crap...for a 150+ phone you get a fair amount of UNNEEDED CRAP!!! Now if the phone had better quality instead of a ton of crap for the same price, Id certainly be inclined to purchase at some of the higher price tags.

Heh, I actually prefer to have the phone on vib. The on I have tho does this. On vibrate only..its vibrates untill I answer it, then it says missed call. On vibrate then ring setting, it vibs once..rings once. No matter how fast I answer it, missed call. The only setting that works as advertised is ring only.

On that note..Ill be sure to turn it from 5-8 just for you!!!

I want a phone that makes outgoing calls only, and earns me money while using it.

I have 2 cell phones - a work phone and a personal phone.  I hate them both.  I\'m in electronic prison.  I know I could simply turn them off, but my supervisor would have a fit, and the personal phone would be a similar situation.

Damn this technology!  I\'m just waiting for a tracking device to be installed in my head.

Well I\'m a big cell phone person. Hell Iceland even though it\'s a small place has the highest cell phone usage in the world, we beat out Finland sometime back. Everybody and their dog has a cellphone.

Anyhoo, I\'m a gadget freak, so cellphones with all the latest stuff are the thing for me. I\'ve used Nokia\'s almost exclusively. I like their design (mostly) and easy to use menu system.

However as I stated in your previous thread I plan on switching to a SonyEricsson with my next purchase, mostly because I just want to try something different for once.

Now for the stuff that is important to me:
Small
color screen (for new ones atleast)
vibrating alert
GPRS
a menu system that is responsive and can be navigated through with out too much trouble.
good feedback on the buttons, I want to feel the click when I press them.
durability (even though I get a new one all the time)

Anyhoo, this is what I could think of right now.

Yes, keep telling yourself that! :p


Here are my picks:

The menu system should be swift.
The phone should be lightweight.
Good response when using the buttons.
Color screen / good contrast / high res.
Long lasting battery. This is very important to me.
MP3 playback wouldn\'t hurt. :)
And for Gods sake can we get UTMS soon (I realize this isn\'t only the manufacturer\'s choice).
