Signing up for new service with Cingular soon, and was wondering if I could
get some feedback as to which of these phones is better?

Most important features:

1. Signal strength and battery life
2. Import Outlook contacts
3. Lots of address/book entries
4. Durability
5. Screen size / visual
6. Headset hookups / hands free operation

Not important:

Camera or video
Text or MM messaging
Email from phone
Web browsing on phon

Thank you in advance for any helpful advice you might have.

Chris

The difference is probably ENS, since otherwise the phones are quite similar
in their common features. If your V400 is more than a few months old, it
probably doesn't support ENS, and you probably don't have the necessary 64K
SIM in any event.

What is ENS ? Why is the 64k SIM better?

Thank you for your response.

Thank you John. In doing a little more research, I see your name coming up
quite a bit on the net...so since you seem to be a cell phone guru - which
of these phones would YOU get?

(and are the bluetooth headsets cool - and do they work well)

Thanks again,

Chris

V551 (with 64K SIM), the best phone now being sold by Cingular IMHO.

I really like my V551 (which I have had all of a week now). My only
complaint is that Cingular does a pathetic job explaining the available data
features (actually, no explanation at all). I bought the package that
includes 250 txt msgs, 50 multimedia, and I think 1MB of data. Well, I just
figured out this morning that if I want to send a picture to an email
address, I am using data, not multimedia. I appears, at least to me, that
multimedia messages can only be sent to another phone.

I sure wish Cingular had one place to go look for all of the info you need
to use their service.

That's a spiffy idea Charles, but it'll never work because it makes too
much sense. The reason it'll never work is because I don't think
Cingular has a clue about how to do this, because if they did have a
clue, it would've already been done.
