The 3220 screen is really bad IMO. My GF has it and there doesnt seem to be much more colours than the horrible orange background. The K300i display is easier on the eye IMHO.

    I wonder what happen if the joystick crashes. Will be it possible to navigate over the options menu? I think this will let k300i unusable! (due to number keys are not navigation keys, are they?)

      SE T610 has a somewhat larger CSTN display (same technology) that is more difficult to see in the sunshine than the K300 display

      Nokia 2600 has same size CSTN display (same technology) but only 4000 colors compared to K300 which has 65000 colors

      Nokia 3220 has a TFT display in the same size which is better than K300. However this phone only has 1 MB available for user (K300 has 10-12 MB), which makes the camera of small practical use

          Transfer via
          1) infrared,
          2) mms or
          3) cable DCU-11.

                  Are you sure these themes work for K300. K500i/K508i have a larger screen in pixels as well as having 12 instead of 9 icons in the main menu.
                  Will these themes really fit in K300?

                                Riyan,

                                I haven't had a single SW problem now for over 6 months ... quite stable if you ask me... K300 is in my opinion much much better than T230. T230 is based on T68 inside. K300 is based on K700 inside - two generations later than T68! I have not tried "switch". I would be careful to go around believing K300 is a true music mobile phone. The main reason for mp3 playability is to use it as ring signals.

                                Rez,

                                The IR should work with any other IR than works towards other computers.

                                The joystick is perhaps 3,5-4 out of 5 possible. It works ok, but nothing spectacular.

                                You can video as long as the momory permits (you have to adjust the settings, otherwise it constrains it to mms-format - around 6-8 seconds. Then it depends on how many other files you have in the phone (video, photo, mp3 etc. Total memory is between 10-12 mb.

                                      Riyan,

                                      all the phones you mention have inferior displays compared to K300. The T610 has a somewhat larger display (128x160 - K300 has 128x128), but it was optimized for contrast which meant that it was quite difficult to see in the sunshine outdoors. This display is easier to read outdoors than T610 and is somewhat better (newer generation). SO if you like the T610 display you will like the K300 display. Good luck!
