If you're looking for a reason to not hate your 7650, the 6650 has fixed (non-expandable) memory too. BUT, it ships with 7mb of user space instead of our 4mb. :(

It looks to be fairly small too. I like everything about it other than the antenna, but I guess thats for the American WCDMA networks(?).

The phone's not half as good looking as the 7650, but at least you can get a wireless headset for it!

Is it me or is there no mention of GPRS on the phone?
I see there's the new "WCDMA". Anyone know what this is? Is it better than GPRS?

Oh and I don't see a speakerphone on it either!

It says operating System Nokia, so It does not sounf like it is Symbian. Although the device looks very much like a Series 60.

I had thought WCDMA was just an advanced version of the US standard CDMA. And it is, but from reading the link Merlin posted I see it's also what we've been calling 3G. Wow! 3G and GSM in one package. Add the bluetooth adaptor, which looks amazing and you've got one pretty package!

Just because it doesnt say Symbian on the web page don't think the handset isn't based on Series 60. I'm sure it is but Nokia would rather just refer to it as their own O/S, it simply sounds better. How else could they release so many similar phones in such a short space of time? I think we'll see that they all share the same (or very similar) O/S pre-installed.

Please bare in mind that these are just my thoughts and not any 'insider information.'
