Smartphone 17 Aug 2008

I'm finally retiring my Nokia 6510 handset, which I've had as my main phone for six years this autumn. Excellent tactile design. Only now it's starting to give. The menu button produces no clicks or double-clicks. Compliment to the engineers and designers who created 6510, it has been a fantastic product - and not quite matched by Nokia's current offering.

Some statistics from the phone's call counters:

Dialled calls' duration 80:20:46
Received calls' duration 240:10:49
All calls' duration 320:31:34
Last call duration 00:14:42

That's almost a fortnight on the phone.

The 6510 worked fine on the presumption that mobile phone is good for phone calls and texting. Now that you're supposed to be able to do all kinds of smart things with your mobile, it seems it's the iPhone that finally delivers those promises.
