Nokia N73 on 3 X-Series

[Nick F]

My contract with Orange has come to an end and I'm looking to upgrade or get a new contract.

I know that Orange have the New E650 coming in a couple of months but I've always been of the opinion that Orange is rather costly although they do have great customer service.

I've been looking at the 3 X-Series range with all the extra features you can use. Plus the contract is only £22.50 for 8 months and then £40 after that.

I've used a Windows Mobile device for the last couple of years. Has anyone had experience with the Nokia N73 and 3?

i would not get the n73 when there are new and better phones coming out such has the famous 5 mega pix/GPS/WIFI N95

one thing to remeber is not all people want all that crap in thier phone.

I for one have a satnav thats better than anything a phone can offer, and i have no want for a digi cam.

i actually have an n73, and its great the camera is good enough for what its meant to be, i seem to recall nick as being into photography anyway... so im sure his slr cannon or whatever it is is not going to be replaced by a phone anyway.

regarding 3 i cant help, but the phone is good, with the latest firmware its quick around menues looks clean, brilliant screen. and a decent camera, and facility to have a gig of music ect, basically a good all roun dmobile

I'm very keen on the technology called Orb that lets you stream your video content onto you phone anywhere in the country

Never will I have a boring bus journey!

The few people I know who have used the X-series service have been very complimentary. It works as expected, apparently.

I'm very keen on this package.

I'm just slightly concerned with the phone and how it will hold up for 18 months.

There are some mixed reviews online.

the phone will nbotbe cutting edge then, as its not now, so if thats what your worried about i would look elsewhere, but as far as phones go i canot rate it enough
