    The SE T610 seems a very good choice. Also the T630 which has a different design (it kinda looks like a Mac) and a better screen.
    System : ASUS A8N SLI premium, Athlon 64X2 3800+, 2Gb, T7K500 320Gb SATAII, T7K250 250Gb SATAII, T7K250 250Gb ATA133, Nec ND-3520, Plextor PX130A, SB Audigy 2, Sapphire Radeon X800 GTO, 24" Dell 2407WFP.

      If you decide to go for a T610 and don't want a new contract I have an 'as new' boxed T610 (I'll check which network, I think it can be unlocked) which I was going to stick on eBay for a mate.

      PM me if you're interested.

        You don't need that much of a GSM to do this. I use my Siemens S35i (3 years old) in combination with my Psion 5mx (even older ) to read emails (via a Java SSH terminal). All it needs is either infrared (if your pda has this), and it should be able to behave as a modem (this is how I connect them together). Same goes for Bluetooth: this should also allow the GSM to act as a modem.
        Even this old phone can sync with calendar applications (albeit relatively limited).

        I think the (recent) feature you are looking for is called SyncML:

        (just checked: Microsoft is not part of this alliance)
        Some manufacturers have proprietary software which might allow synching with other software (perhaps Outlook).

        I'm also looking out for a phone, but I would like to be able to use its internal mail client (or Java MIDP client or something). Only issue is that my mailserver requires secure connections, and I haven't found a phone whose mailclient supports this.
        Any advice here ?

          Hmm, I looked around at mobile phones on the web today.

          The z600 is sweet, but too expensive for me. Also, the Motorola v500/v600 look nice as well.

          I really don't need a camera though, grrr.

              The Samsung SGH-i500 looks very interesting... It runs Palm OS 5.2, and appears to have the features I'm looking for. It has no bluetooth though, but an SDIO compatible slot so bluetooth could be added...

              Chances are that I'll go for this model, once it becomes available (depending on the price).

                The z600 would be absolutely perfect if it came without a camera. Why would I want a camera in my phone?

                    Nokia 9210(i). I have a 9210 (which is the predecessor of the 9210i), and it has a built in mail client that works with TLS/SSL. It's quite old though, and bulky, but it works

                      Yes, but the bulkiness puts me off...
