so which do you prefer and why?

Slider, more compact in yer pocket, not as complex as a full-on series 60 handset.

Now, had you asked about 6280 vs N80 - that would be an altogether harder question to answer ........... probably :)

They're really completely different handsets. When it comes to comparing a Series 60 handset to any other non-smartphone (like Series 40) it becomes about whether you actually need a smartphone or not.

Personally I like the 6280... but I'd want/need a Series 60 handset like the N70 as well.

N70 for me on the functionality. Not a big fan of the sliders and am probably pretty biased having an N70.

I've only seen Phones4U selling the 6280 on Three!

Where is that then? On-line or in the shops? They are due out on 3 but apparently not for a few more days (21st someone said elsewhere on T3G).
