re: 7650 & 5210

<< 7650 & 5210 ... They look very cool. >>

They really do.

So far as I am concerned, color and keyboards are requisite for the mobile messaging world, and a joystick works for gamers and navigating screens. The camera may become requisite.

If the 7650 is tri-band I'll probably buy one for travel abroad.

If it is not I'll wait for a tri-band Communicator, or perhaps just opt out for the T68 (but again lack of keyboard a killer for me). Meantime I "tap" on the on screen keyboard of the KYO 6035.

<< I have a hard time believing that Nokia would release a high-end handset without GPRS. >>

Well ...

... the transition to "always on" packet data has not even really begun (outside of Korea & Japan) ...

... but GPRS devices are sure necessarry to move things along, for sure.

I'm pretty sure that the 7650 is Symbian OS and if GPRS it will be the earliest Symbian with GPRS and keyboard (I think).

I'm betting GPRS in the 7650, but less sure about 5210.
