Trying to decide between these two phones. Found a lot of info here about the x66, but nothing on the 9500.

I am looking for:

GSM
Bluetooth
Wi-fi
QWERTY keyboard
Internet browser
HTML POP3 email
802 wireless LAN

Don't care about size so much

Some other service than Sprint. Possibly looking at Cingular. Local service would be the Atlanta Georgia area.

Like the above two phones, but would look at something else.

Thanks
Bill

I like the horizontal screen layout for web browsing on the Nokia 9500 and I like the larger QWERTY horizontal keyboard. Looks like it would be easier to type. I have an older Sharp Wizard organizer that looks very much like this. Have never tried the Palm-type organizer.

But the sx-66 and varients, seem to be a newer technology. Also I am interested in the quad band GSM as I plan to be traveling overseas, both in Europe and Southeast Asia. Touchscreen might be more user friendly. Also sounds like the SX66 processer is faster.

Would be able to get my hands on an SX66 at a local Cingular store, but can't find anybody local to Atlanta who has the Nokia 9500.

What to do? What to do? I would guess that either would do the job.

PDA2K would be the best choice in my opinion
