Good Points
Very stylish look, comfortable to hold.
Bad Points
Terrible software - counter-intuitive, and slow.
General Comments
Despite its physical beauty, my love affair with this phone ended quickly. The software seems almost willfully frustrating, with nothing where you expect it to be and few options to customise (good example - if look up a name in your phone book, you can't directly text to that number!) The joystick control is used to bring the phone out of sleep mode, but moving it activates shortcuts (such as WAP) when you didn't want to.
Sony have improved on most of these annoyances with their later phones, so my advice to AVOID applies only to the T610 model.
