3. I am still using my E70, as Nokia has not released a better phone so far. Unfortunately, it is very slow by today's standards. OMAP850 and 48MB RAM just don't cut it nowadays

1) regardless of "for its time" (I don't care about "for its time", I care about "can it do what I want/need"), I found the internet capabilities of that generation of nokia phones to be entirely sub-par.

2) My E61i was cheaper than that. My G1 was cheaper than that. I don't see the value in paying that much for a "just voice+sms" device, when my "voice+sms+internet" device costs less.

3) whether or not Nokia has released a better phone, other companies have. And, more importantly, since then I realized that I wanted more than just a voice+sms device. I don't want to carry two pocketables.
