Summary: Does what a phone should and much more
Comment: I have owned this phone for about a month now and I am very happy with the phone overall with some minor draw backs. I use this in Manhattan area with AT&T.

Pros:
1. very good reception. Full bar inside some subway stations (including Times Square on the 1,9 line, 2 stories below ground)
2. good battery life. batteries go up to 4 days without charging with ~30 min talk/day +some texting and web browsing.
3. W Lan connection a breeze.
4. works well with ATT internet by media net, relatively fast and reliable connection. (can't comment on 3G, haven't used it)
5. Screen seems scratch resistant. probably has a glass cover. put the phone in my pocket with keys several times. not a scratch so far.

cons:
1. media player less than adequate
2. no asian language support (apparently you have to go to nokia service center to get the hardware flashed in order to add extra language support)
3. SD card gets stuck in the slot frequently, had to remove it using an pocket knife (ouch my new phone). may be an isolated case.

Summary: Great LITTLE phone
Comment: I had this phone for a couple of weeks before returning. It was great while I used it, but the screen was smaller than I expected and to be truthful it was a little more of a phone than I needed. I got it for the Wi-Fi and used it a few times. But, I was not aware of the higher internet access cost of using a phone like this. If I was willing to pay for the higher PDA type account I might have kept the phone.

Summary: Cool Phone
Comment: Phone works well (I use AT&T) and has a great feel. It's very well made, the only comment is that the keys are a bit small but OK given the small size of the phone itself.

Summary: Sleek and functional
Comment: It was gifted to me by my husband. A sleek and functional equipment. I needed something light weight and slim that would fit my clutch bag that I use at work. Even though I have to say that it has too many features for a technology naive person like me, it is highly recommeded for people who are more hands on with cell phones and want multiple features in their cell phones. I do love it still.

Summary: Bought this phone for use overseas
Comment: So far I really like this phone. The simple shape and size are perfect and the buttons are large enough to dial a number easily. I bought this unlocked phone to use in Europe and New Zealand. As of today I have not been overseas so I can't recommend it for that use. I did buy an ATT SIM card in an ATT store and put it in the camera. ATT and T-mobile are the only carriers I am aware of that use GSM, which is the universal (everywhere but the USA) cellphone technology. So far it has worked good in the USA. I was also able to take my long standing ATT phone number SIM card, that I've have for several years and use it in this Nokia E51 phone. I tried my Tracfone SIM card but it would not accept the Tracfone SIM. I don't know if Tracfone uses GSM. I plan on purchasing a SIM card for the country I visiting IF I plan on making lots of calls, locally. For the occasional call back to home I will turn on International roaming with ATT and anyone can reach me on my regular USA phone number. Problem is the cost is about $2.00 per minute. OK if you can't be bothered with an overseas phone number and only need to talk to home a couple times, briefly. I want the ease of being able to be reached from my regular cell phone number and be able to switch the SIM card to use the phone locally but cheaply. I also like the built in MP3 Player, FM radio and bluetooth of the Nokia. I only gave 4 stars for now since I have not proven its ability to works overseas. If you just want an unlocked phone and GoPhone prices from ATT this is better than any of the locked phones ATT offers with their GoPhone plans.
