    well... that's a bit chalk and cheesie... will just make some points about the 902 (there was an S700 thread detailed a good while back)

    are you very interested in the 3G capabilities the 902 potentially offers (if the network can deliver it)

    screen wise Sharp's handset screens are pretty much the best available (due to their CG Silicon and high resolution)... although you have to deal with that sharp/Vodafone UI... the neat flip/fold hinge is a nice feature, although a d-pad is sadly lacking when the phone is in that state...

    camera wise with 2MP it will be the highest rez available here on release, although still without proper optics/flash etc, those who want to capture high quality shots won't be leaving their real camera behind

    they have a special Ferrari version, but dunno how you'd going about getting that - and it's red (surprisingly enough!)

    would have liked to have seen some sort of physical camera lens protection though...

    people may also think you are always very happy to see them give it's size in your pocket... and don't expect the battery life to be amazing...

    I'd go for the Sharp 902. I've seen a working model. Very good camera. Nice menu functions and easy to use. Very very big though, although I wouldn't mind that too much myself. Will probably buy it when it goes down in price.
    349 is WAY too expensive for me. Hopefully it'll go down in price in the next few months like the SEV800 and Nokia 6630 did.
    I haven't seen a working S700i yet, and haven't had any enquiries about it yet either.
    Ask the store can you have a demo of both. Will probably help a lot.

    here's the S700 thread i mentioned, just keep in mind the one from Vodafone will likely be Vodafoneised...

    Picked mine up on bill and pay option for my upgrade but they forgot to include the leaflet that has my new sim information so i cant unlock my new phone yet!! Waiting for the store to call me back which is annoying to say the least. At least it will be charged and ready to go by then. I cant wait. Its bigger than my GX30 but not as thick for some reason.
