My mom loved the 3310 (we had one from Fido)--did everything a phone should, well, and nothing more. Then her work required her to go CDMA and now she has a Samsung that lasts about 1.5 days on a charge, reboots daily, and mysteriously changes itself to vibrate. If my mom had her way, she'd go back to the Ericsson (yep, no Sony prefix) brick she had with the flip-down plastic number pad cover.<br><br>As for me, I have a couple Nokia 3220s tucked away in my drawer. It's still one of my favourite phones, and I use it whenever I'm doing something prolonged and outdoorsy. Rock solid battery life, excellent call quality, daylight-visible display, and... it survived a spill into salt water. What more can I say?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike P.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 10th 2009 1:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nokia admits some N73 batteries have put on a little weight]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/10/nokia-admits-some-n73-batteries-have-put-on-a-little-weight/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/10/nokia-admits-some-n73-batteries-have-put-on-a-little-weight/</guid><description><![CDATA[what about BP-6MT? are those batteries the same ? :|]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[chriscross]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 10th 2009 7:33AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nokia admits some N73 batteries have put on a little weight]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/10/nokia-admits-some-n73-batteries-have-put-on-a-little-weight/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/10/nokia-admits-some-n73-batteries-have-put-on-a-little-weight/</guid><description><![CDATA[ "swollen up -- apparently in some cases to about three-times their original size"<br><br>Is that an n73 battery in your pocket or are you just happy to see me.<br><br>ahhh i had to do it, so sorry.
