Nokia 6110
85% Perfect
Good:
GPS Reception, routing. Very fast, no issues.
Phone reception.
850MHZ included.
Screen sharp with no glare.
Nokia PC software and Outlook syncing works perfectly.
OS Fast enough, more intuitive than my U600.
Physical build quality. Firm slider, nice materials.
Rear firing speakers surprisingly clear and suitable to task of in car navigation.
Standard min-USB connector.
Camera is good for 2MP. Nice flash. Quality lens cover.
Price (until you buy maps).
Bad:
IT CRASHES ALL THE TIME. Have to reset by removing battery.
Comes preconfigured to use data connection all the time. BE CAREFUL.
No predictive text like my Moto.
Alarm feature sucks.
No USB charging. This is my first Nokia, are they all like this?
Address entry for GPS: Should be predictive like all portable GPS units. Free text is a PITA.
Maps WAY to expensive. End up costing more then a Garmin, Tom Tom, etc.
Charging connection ON TOP makes in car mounting and charging awkward.
CR-48 specific vehicle mount no where to be found on market.
GPS eats batteries.
Form factor too thick (though I knew this going in)
2MP camera is so 2004. C'mon. (though I knew this going in)

my thoughts on the Nokia 6110 Navigator
I love it. I haven't had a phone in a while where I would say that. I like the size of the phone. I have a thing for sliders right now so I liked how this one was made. I like the easy to navigate menus on this. Although this is my first S60 V3 Nokia it's not that slow as people make it out to be. I have a factory navigation system in my car, but I wanted to get something different as far as phones go so I chose this one, since not many people will have it. The biggest thing I love about this one is built-in GPS antenna. I like the camera lens cover as it protects it from scratches as many other phones get. I currently use my phone with the original AT&T blue in NorCal. Reception is great, it's a quadband phone signal should be strong almost everywhere that has a tower within range. The only gripe I have with this phone is that there is no A2DP bluetooth support. I guess it's ok to use the phone without it, but I bought some Motorola S805 DJ headphones to play mp3s. I have to use the 6110 without bluetooth headphones, but they do have some nice sounding stereo speakers built in. Overall that's what I thought about it, I'm keeping it along with my current collection which consist of: Vertu Motorsports edition, SE k800i Casino Royale, Nokia 8801, Nokia 8890, Nokia 7190, Motorola A630, 2x Motorola V80.
