I too was an early 9000 user (pre- "i" even), but since work
got it it was not that bad a price ;-) (We provide corporate
application access S/W for the 9210 now). When I visited
Nokia in Finland concerning the 9210 (we had a beta unit),
absolutely everyone had the 9000i pouch - they were either
seen as a status thing, or they had a lot spare to give to staff.

But... I had a good play with the new Ericsson P800 at
CeBIT the other week - it's sooo nice. It's small, about 1cm
longer than a T68, not much wider and only a few mm deeper.
It has a decent screen with handwriting recognition and all
the other Symbian stuff (Platform V7.0).

Having just got the T68 before xmas, I'm now looking at
ways to get the P800 later in the year. :-)
