I'm thinking of getting a new cell phone. I've got a T68i right now,
which mostly does the job, but it rings a little too quietly and the
menus and interface seem to have been designed by either idiots or truly
brilliant people trying to design the worst possible interface.

Requirements:
- Loud ring.
- Decent menu setup.
- Bluetooth (as both a modem and for syncing with iSync).
- Full Fido compatibility (of course).

Any thoughts?

You said the magic word: Nokia. Great!

So, now, how do I get this headseat (an unlocked one, I mean)? Fido
doesn't sell it.

They are located in Canada and very reliable. I buy a phone from them last
year whitout problems.

But be prepared to open your wallet: 699$ !!

Holy cow! That's quite a phone!

...and quite a price, but probably less than I paid for my T68i +
accessories last year.

I second the www.omegacell.com suggestion.  I have bought NUMEROUS phones
from them before with no problems at all!  Great CS and located in Edmonton
so no customs etc. to worry about.

I can't seem to find this phone anymore. Has it been discontinued?
