Both of those stink.
The only good phones being sold by Cingular (on the West Coast) are:
Nokia 3600
Sony Ericsson T616
Samsun S307
Motorola T720
In Evansville, IL (where your ISP is located), they also have the Nokia
6340i, which is a great phone.

Re: NOKIA 6800 or MOTOROLA V60i ?
6800 ROCKS. IMHO the V60 would be my last pick
I personally dont like the rotary dial of the 3600
The S307 has some issues. Like the front display is only lit if the
phone is open, and goes dark as soon as you close it. Backwards!!
T720 No bad, 616 Very nice.

Re: NOKIA 6800 or MOTOROLA V60i ?
the v60i and its predecessor hte v60 have the same weakness... that little
stubby antenna tends to snap off... and that is not covered by warranty..
insurance will cover it at a 35 bux deductable
nokia in this case is a better choice... the 6800 is GSM/GPRS while the v60
is TDMA

My v60i antenna has never snapped off (nor have the antennas on the v60i
phones of my other family members). If it does, then I'll just go to Radio
Shack and get a new antenna for about $10.00.

I've read rpeorts that the Nokias' performance on CDMA is somewhat lacking,
and so--based upon our excellent experiences with the v60i phones--I'd
definitely recommend it for anyone.

GSM/GPRS is not CDMA technology. However, GSM is superior to TDMA in my
opinion.

Re: NOKIA 6800 or MOTOROLA V60i ?
You just have to think you have to choose a Ferrari(Nokia) or a
Toyota(Motorola). What do you choose? NOKIA is superior in ANY way from
Motorola.It has tradition on making mobile phones !>>this is my
personal opinion<<!

My personal opinion is, Nokia manufacturers crappy cheap plastic
phones. Their tradition is manufacturing paper and rubber products,
and they should have kept with this stuff...
