Yeah, I wish there was, say, a chain of shops that had working models you could try out. But then again, in a country where most people buy phones on the basis of looks and "camera hai ki nahin" there really is no incentive....
I'm not even looking at the E61 or E62 as I don't need a e-mail phone as much, and more importantly they are out of my price range. I am looking at the E50 because it seems like it's a decent basic smartphone for a fairly good price. The only downsides I see are that the camera is nothing great (video downright sucks) which is okay since I don't really like cameraphones, and that the phone itself is nothing great to look at.

ShoppersStop usually has phones for trying out. Though their prices are ridiculous, good place to check things out.
heh - typo there 
So.... I'm basically looking at getting the Nokia E50, especially considering that it is almost 5K cheaper than the m600i. No touchscreen, but the organizer features look pretty good (I like having the standby/main screen showing me a list of appointments/to-do/unread messages for the day). And that green light which blinks to show you have some unread messages / missed calls would be ideal for a person like me, who leaves his cellphone lying around all over the place..... and it's got EDGE which the m600i doesn't.So does anyone here have the phone? What do you think about it?@prathapml: The software you mentioned earlier - would it work on the e50?

About the symbian software, yup, the E50 is compatible with 90% of recent apps, & atleast 50% of ancient apps that have been around since 1998.
