Blackberry Curve. I have the dreaded dust under the screen problem and neither ATT or RIM want to warranty it even though it is a known problem. This is my last RIM product.

i have a Nokia6230i, i had a friend to buy it in the UK for me a couple of years ago.
not a valid choice at this time, i bought because i was looking for:
-the smallest phone with the must have features:
-bluetooth internet modem (Edge)
-bluetooth file push pull (add/ remove pic's w/o a cable)
-speaker phone + bt head set support
-at least a 1meg camera and video
-voice dial
-removable SDcard
-mp3 player
-size = VERY SMALL

i had a SE a while back and thought the voice dial was better.

see my recent post on its performance when paired to my macbook portable. got better than expected data rates.
-the apple macbookpro may have a very good bluetooth stack, 4example a dell may sux and one would not get as good performance?
-i know voice reception sux at my house but the data rates are functional for browsing forums like s2ki.com. i dont know why these cell carriers dont drop voice altogether and only provide a internets connection. i thought if it had to pair over bluetooth it would be slow, not.
-its a tiny phone, with the demands of an Edge linkup it gets hot and the battery life is shorter than expected.

for t-mobile or att, everything is on a sim card. i dont like to go out with the wife and drag a pda with me (iphone) so i like a small pocket size phone. its difficult to move a sim card from phone to phone and i only want one account.

after the good results pairing my phone with the apple i have re thought my cell - pda - portable needs.

i have it paired to my pda too, get files + do the internets. not as fast.

i replaced the skin on my nokia cell phone and now have a dust problem too. every few weeks i take the thing apart. did the googles for a dis-assembly pdf on my phone.

i would think there would be a document of how to take the skin off your phone and clean it too

you can try the tools for cleaning computers and electronics, There is the concentrated pressurized air in a can, or the special brushes made for that.

Cingular 3125. I paid nothing for it, and it works. As a value proposition, I think it'd be hard to top.
