| Nokia 5310 or other itty bitty phones?
I'm on rogers, dont mind buying any other unlocked GSM phone or anything though. I'm thinkin the Nokia 5310 is to my liking because its pretty tiny (my motorcycle jacket fits pretty slim, so bulky phones arent too comfy [aka my k790a])
Any opinions on that phone or some suggestions on other tiny phones?
All I use it for is making & receiving calls, and texting (if there were a decent camera with flash i'd use it but that doesnt seem like much of an option)

i have the 5310 xpressmusic. I'm not a cell pro so i can only pick on it's bad side.
pro's:
-slim
-looks timeless
-nice phone for its pricetag
con's:
-supports up to 8GB MicroSDHC..but when you click on memory status it thinks it's a 4GB card. Not really a problem as it does as a 8GB card will hold 8GB of memory regardless of how much it thinks it holds.
-camera sucks
-after i unlocked for use in asia, mine kept crashing randomly when i was listening to music. got it serviced and problem is still there..but happens rarely.
- when you lock your keys, you cant use the music keys on the side (FF/play+pause/backtrack)
7.7/10

I think E51 would've suited you much better, I've held that phone before and played with it for a few mins, and they keys are absolutely perfect

I'm fed up with the 5310 already. I love the phone, except I dont get ANY reception at my house except for a 10x10 section of my front lawn. Everywhere else its fine, except for at my house
anyone have any other suggestions or should i just go for the e51?
whereabouts do you guys get your phones from? (e51 is ~275us new in box, unlocked on ebay)
