there is now a button accessory for iPhones and android phones specifically for VI's who either really don't like, or really can't handle the touch screen gestures. I believe it is called the RiVO, and a link is: http://www.mobience.com/rivo/index.html I have to say that really, the only reason I still hang on to my N96 as well, is because I find it handy to have a less expensive, less delicate, and less desirable phone, for taking riding, or when I go open water swimming, and can't always leave it somewhere secure. apart from that, the iPhone just knocks the spots off of the n96, especially when one looks at the many various apps available for it.

That phone has a number keypad. The E6 has an qwerty keyboard and also has a touch screen. The E71/E72 are older then the E5. As far as down grading! I really don't think you will be missing out on much using one of the older 3rd Edition phones over the E5. But again we don't really know what you are wanting in a phone and hints your reason for wanting a later model of phone. Like I said, I've not found a reason to get a later model myself to use on a normal bases. Yes I have a touch screen Nokia 700 but I don't use it normally. I like the old N95 model much much better and find it works just fine with Talks. Signed: Stephen Giggar Skype: dr-phone. Hardware eventually fails, software eventually works.
