Anyone know if this slick @ss phone works with the TL??

 

It does, I have used it with my TL.

 

yep - works fine - I've got the 6820, my wife has the motorola v600 -- both work fine.

 

I'm still confused why everyone likes that phone. I bought one for my sister and she adores it. Her fiance has the same one. I think its because of that ridiculous keypad/keyboard. Hmm...the 6820 was the first non-series 60 phone to do video recording. That's a plus. Screen could use some help.

 

Yeah, the keypad is nice toy, but the phone overall is nice without it....many kewl features. Not many phones out here come with Bluetooth, Camera and World GSM(Tri-band)....

 

Sony Ericsson T610, T616, T637, k700, P800, P900
Nokia 6600, 3620, 3660

If you're talking about phones that were released on or before the 6820 was released, then just leave out the K700. THe other phones are real nice, especially the T637/T630. I know there are many die hard nokia fans cause I used to be one too. The T616 made me a Sony Ericsson fan along with the T637 and now the P900.

 

I think it is what your most comfortable with - Sounds like the sony ericson phones are nice now, but I always think back to the ericsson phone I had several years ago because it was the biggest piece of crap I've ever had. I'm sure the sony affiliation has helped much, but I'm still biased. The biggest drawback I've noticed with my 6820 is the screen size and resolution leave something to be desired, but other than that its been a great phone.

 

I've used a Nokia ever since I bought my first cell phone in 1999 - I've stuck with them because their GUI is truly the easiest cell phone interface I've ever come across. So when it came time to buy a BT phone for my TL, including the 6820 in the "short list" was a no brainer.

 

Most likely you bought a T68i and expected too much from it as I did. The T610 was no better but when I bought the T616, it changed my mind.

 

I loved the 6800.. Nokia rocks, battery life always seem to be well above average, the full keyboard was a truely nice touch, the FM radio (6800 only) is really handy, speaker phone button is aweomse, etc.... when the 6820 came out I demo'd it the first chance I got. I read reports that the 6820 didn't show battery life nor signal strength on the HID, but that didn't matter to me based on my previous experience with the 6800 (I bought my g/f one). However, once I saw the 6820... I had to veto it. It didn't seem like a phone geared toward straight men. My girl would have loved it, but it just wasn't for me. I was quite disappointed.. it didn't even feel comfortable in my hand and lining it speaker up with my ear didn't feel natural.

I ended up getting the v600. The only thing I hate about it, is that I was trying to stay away from motorolla.. I had an old v60 in the past, and was always such a pain to make the charger plug into the phone properly. Seemed it never made a good connection. Overall tho, the v600 rocks. Small quirks like everything else, but nothing bad.
