Thoughts on 7710?

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.nokia (More info?)

Anyone got/used a 7710, are they any good? I'm currently using a 3230 which
is ok but a bit slow to use...

One concern is the large screen, does it have any kind of protective cover
as I wouldn't want it scratched as that would wreck the phone!

I've heard reports that the software is not too stable, have you had any
problems with that?
