    What do you want to use it for? The Sony has far better sync features, better handling of different gprs/csd accounts, bluetooth, is easier to set up as a modem and more third-party software availlable. The Samsung looks better and has a slightly better screen and camera. Owned both myself, sold both on as I love my P900.

    ive got the e700 - super little phone - with a lummin good display and a nice 640x480 camera!!! If you take alot of photos as i do when i go out, battery doesnt last more than a few days

    ony problem is as with all samsing phones - gay japaneese megadrive NES type sounding ringtomes that are so shaming you end up leaving it on vibrate.

    T630 is slow and unresponsive. You can press a button, go make a cup of tea and come back before it's responded. I don't like the whole joystick idea with Ericsson phones either.

    The E700 is a very nice phone is comparison.

    E700 is nice, But I would personally wait till mid May, Orange have the Nokia 6230 coming out, by far the best choice for useability.

    thing is the longer you wait there's always the next best thing out the next month...why wait, the upgrades are not that significant. I have a t610 [almost a year now] and there's still not a great deal of improvement over it at present...give it a year and then I'll say different when vid-phones are everywhere.

    Please, Don't ask for that one 'as a desktop'...its really not worth wasting your time asking, unless you're able to pay £££?

    i bought a samsung v200 on pay as you go, £280!!! But, i have to admit, samsung are a brilliant firm and the v200 is a fantastic phone. So if the e700 is better than the v200, its gonna be stunning.

    They are both excellent phones, i like them both.
    But i would give the vite to SE - so many features.

    Aaron - i dont know if your basing your statement on them being slow on past phones (which i totaly agree with. Even though the t68/i was good, it was sloowww) or the current ones, but i strongly disagree - the t630 is not slow.
