Reccomend me an older N-series phone

Hi, can't afford a N95, but would like to get a smartphone, and like the look of the N-series (more phone looking than PDA looking). So what is/was considered the best out of the older N-sereis phones? I read lots about clunky software, unstable etc etc. Just want something that is reliable. I'm mainly after one for the PIM stuff, decent calendar/schedule, contacts etc etc. Do I actually need a smartphone to get a decent PIM app, or do modern phones (eg: the Sony ericcson's) have decent PIM apps on nowadays? What should I go for? Looking to spend about £100. Thanks.

£100 without contract?

For that, you might be able to pick up a N73 off eBay.

Yeah, £100 without contract, and obviously s/h.
Is the N73 the one to go for then? they do seem popular.

Thanks Uridium, will take a look. There's a few in the classifieds atm, N70, N80 N73 etc etc

Re: Reccomend me a N-series phone

The N73 is a good solid all round phone, there were many issues with early firmware revisions but these are pretty much sorted now.

The N91 is more of a Music based phone.

Have a look at the Nseries webpages on www.nokia.co.uk for a full overview of all the N-Series.
