TomTom Mobile and the Nokia 6630
Have anybody tested TomTom Mobile with the Nokia 6630??
TomTom (so far) only supports this software on the Nokia 6600,
but I doubt TomTom has based their sale of TomTom Mobile
only to the old Nokia 6600.
I know the Nokia 6630 is running on Symbian OS8 and the
Nokia 6600 on Symbian OS7, but Symbian OS8 should be
backwards compatible!?? Or?????

Most yes... But can you CONFIRM that TomTom Mobile is working on the 6630?
It is decisive for me if I am gonna buy the phone!

To be honest with you, I don't really like the Nokia 6630. It has good specs,
but still missing FM-radio and missing a camera in the front of the phone for
3G-video-conferancing (Why else would you really be needing 3G instead of
Edge??) like the SE Z1010 (it's too cumbersome to be dragging around the
video-craddle for it). Also it has a weird and cumbersome design which I don't like,
with the round shape in the bottom. BUT, since there are not many other
alternatives right now, I am playing with the thought of going for it, and keep
it until the 3230 with Edge/FM-radio, or the new 3G flagship 6680 arrives.
TomTom is an amazing piece of software, and I have tried it on an Nokia 6600.
Wayfinder and Route66 are in my opinion NOT comparable, and a smartphone
that is not capable of running TomTom Mobile is out of the question for me.
So, anybody who have tried TomTom Mobile on the 6630? Plz let me know!

omg.... Fm radio is useless /in my opinion/ and the second camera.... its more comfortable to call with camera stand than hold the phone in you hand all the time,and i dont think,that you are able to hold it in a stable position  and if there is 3G in your country,most of your calls will not be videocalls,just calls just like in GSM  its really interesting how can an only one application decide,if the phone is good,or not for you

FM Radio
Actually, the missing FM radio isn't a big deal for those who want it. You need to have a headset for the antenna to function and Nokia instead offer a new radio headset. This headset gives any Nokia phone an FM radio. If anyone truly wants radio, just buy that headset.

That's the same as saying why use a mobile phone when its more confortable to use a fixed phone confortably seated on the sofa...
I think videocalls are one of the biggest advantages of 3G and that a second should be in the phone or maybe just one and some sort of shell phone like the 6260
I am thinking to buy this phone because I want to move into the symbian world and its the best phone at the momment. But I would'nt mind having the same model without 3G and less expensive, since I think almost nobody will be using 3G functionality at the moment (except maybe newsreporters and people who work for mobile phone networks  )

laugh as much,as you can,as much,as you wish... but try to think about it... second camera,videocall..... for how long will you frequentky use this ? two weeks ? maybe more.... but its the same,like with cameras on phones,for the first some weeks you shoot photos all the way,all the time,and than you maybe forget about it,that you have an integrated camera... but maybe you are a different person and you will use it every day twice,than iam so sorry...
