BenQ-Siemens EF81

<http://www.gsmarena.com/benq_siemens_ef81-1412.php>

Anyone seen one of these yet? Looks pretty smart I think. Smaller and
thinner than the V3x and yet seems to have all the same functionality.
BenQ-Siemens is looking like quite a good pairing so far!

Now I'll have to decide if I want a nice small phone, or go mad and get a
N80 - I think they should be out around the same sort of time.

It's not a pairing, BenQ took over Siemens Mobile, but decided to retain
the brand for the time being to retain some continuity. The Siemens
mobile brand will dissappear within a year I reckon.

With the exception of one really old mobile phone, I found Siemens mobiles
rubbish. I had one which had 'colour' - red green blue on LCD screen. It was
the SL-10 i think, many years ago on vodafone. Wouldn't show the SMS
sender's name if it was in your phonebook, but instead you had to rely on
remembering phone numbers.

Anyhoo, the phone you've mentioned doesn't look like a phone of spectacular
value, but it's good to see cheaper mobiles coming on the market that have
in-built features such as easy pop/imap email-access, and blah.
