Help me choose a phone!
 
Deciding between 2 phones...

1) Nokia 5800 XpressMusic
2) Nokia E71

3) Introduce me to a phone around the price of $250-$275!!

Must work with Bell Sim card! I was going to buy the Telus Nokia E71 and unlock it, but I still don't know if that is possible. Then a friend told me about the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and it looks really good especially since its touchscreen and I can use the browser functions with the school free wifi..

Help me out RS!

I've seen some vids of the 5800 and it looks like it lags when transitioning to pages. Apparently i won one though, i'll tell you how it handles if i ever get it lol ;)

5800 is a pretty standard phone, nothing really special cept the touchscreen. connecting to the internet at times can be a pain in the balls, cuz it always say shit like " gateway : no reply " or some bullshit like that unless you restart the phone a couple times. transitions dont really lag after you update it with the latest firmware. Overall the phone is pretty solid, especially for its low pricetag.

So I was going to buy a Telus Nokia E71. ( I really need warranty btw) And I called into the telus people and asked if I can unlock the E71 and use it on the bell network and still have the warranty..

They said :
#1, you can't unlock it and use it.
#2, if you do unlock it, you will void all warranty it has...

HELP!!

If this doesn't go through then I need help trying to find another phone!!!

P.S. Anyone here work for Bell and can provide hookups? :)

what do you need the warranty for? It doesnt really cover anything that JP cellular couldn't handle for a decent price.

All warranty covers is manufacture defects, not physical damage/water damage.
