I want a new cellphone, as the joystick on my K750i is b0rken. Any advice on good replacements for it? I am very pleased with it otherwise..

I hear good things about the K800i - and the camera seems to be
nicer than my N73. Also you won't get the
14daysgettingusedtonokiaagainsyndrome. However; more fun apps may
be available for Nokia (?).
I hear good things about it as well, and I am tempted. I am even
more tempted by the k810i though, sweet camera in it as well. And I
will most likely go for a SE again, so I won't have to unlearn and
relearn the fecking menu system (:
Yeh, it's so fecking annoying with that joystick, I go reverse
through all the scroll menus, because I can't go up. And if I
eventually try to go up, it is interpreted as a click instead.
Jaaayyyysus! (:
Maybe the problem is dirt of some sort around the joystick. I
have heard it can be cleaned if you remove the front cover and
clean around the joystick with a can of clean air.
I actually took mine to a repair shop, they said the problem was
most likely due to moisture (which kills most mobile phones) and
that there was no way to fix it without paying more than the phone
was worth.
That's not what I meant. I have a subscription already, so I'm
not going to buy a phone with a subscription... I'm just going to
buy a phone, and then it'll cost more than 1 DKK
I am sure that you can use their DKK 1,- offer if you're already
a costumer with them and you've had your old phone for at least 6
months. In return you have to commit yourself for another 6 months.
That's what I've done a couple of times anyway.

A SE won't be able to run an apache webserver though...

And I need that, desperately...

Heh, I have exactly the same problem with my K750i. Desperately trying not to go nuts and buy the Nokia N95...

Are we still talking about the DKK 1,- Sony Ericsson K750i?

That's the one i'm talking about.

Isn't it cheaper to just buy a new K750i then? You probably won't get much canned air (or a new joystick) for DKK 1,-.

Well, 1 DKK is with some sort of subscription plan right? If yo just buy it normally, it's going to cost more.

Hehe, I thought subsciption was the 'normal thing' and the buy-minutes-online was for teenagers only. But what do I know?
