[New phone!]
One of the biggest adjustments I had to make when I started working at my current workplace was that I could not bring my camera phone to work. The thing that irritated me the most was that my personal calendar/organiser was in my camera phone and I would no longer be able to access it at work. I was unable to sync the calendar/organiser in my 6500s with my E51 due to the different software platforms they were on.
None of the non-camera phones Nokia had on the market could sync with the 6500s, so there wasn't much I could do. Then, Nokia announced the 2323 classic, running on the same software as the 6500s, non-camera, and comes with bluetooth (need this for the sync function to work). I kept close tabs on this phone and waited for it to be released in Singapore. Just before it was due to be released, it disappeared from the "coming soon" section of Nokia's Singapore website. It wasn't going to be released here.
I was very disappointed.
Then, as luck would have it, I chanced across someone selling it for $75 on eBay Singapore. I bought the phone and it arrived today. The software in the 2323 classic is actually a little different from the 6500s. Some of the features have been stripped out. It's actually a "Lite" version of the same software. But that's okay, it's not my primary phone anyway.
Syncing worked for the most part. There is a bug with the way they sync-ed the SMS and MMS messages, so I chose not to sync them. Other than that, contacts and calendar/organiser info sync-ed beautifully.
Finally...No more wondering if there would be a clash in my personal and work calendar/schedule. I was actually contemplating switching to Windows Mobile phones to get around this problem. Now I don't have to.
