I would add that too, that SE phones always work well with Macs
(unless in Brett's case there is really something wrong with the
phone). I'm presently using a k700i, but have used other SEs in the
past.

I can say that it scores 3 out of 3 regarding your requirements.
But it
fails most people's 4th, that being price. A bit too pricey (I
managed to do
a special deal). Other than that, it's a great phone. The reception
is way
better than the P800. Opens pdf's and spreadsheets quite well. The
camera
is, well, OK. Good for taking rough pics of equipment at auctions
to show
the chef before you start bidding on it the next day, or how the new
cheeseboard looks as a guide to staff, but not much good for
anything else.
It doesn't look very cool unless you're the type that's impressed
by the
sunglasses they sell in Memphis.
The flip down keyboard is a joke but the HW recognition is OK
although not
as good as Newton ‹ nothing is yet (had to put that in :-).
But the main thing is that it works perfectly in 10.4 (downloads a
little
program to the phone initially), and you'll be able to easily sync
Addressbook & iCal by bluetooth.

Hi all I'm hunting for a new phone. Had a look at the Apple website,
which gave me a list to look at, and a cool little table at the
bottom which describes which brands offer the best compatibility -
they are:
- Nokia '60' series
- Panasonic '60' series
- Sony Ericsson P800, P900 and P910 series phones
I've been using a Sony Ericsson T68i up until this point (interface
bugs me sometimes) ... anyone have any recommendations and/or
observations on the phones grouped above?
My criteria are that the phone be compatible with OS 10.4, not be too
big, have a functional interface (both the operating system and
physical form) e.g. buttons made for medium sized fingers, have
bluetooth, and have a decent standby time.
Before you say anything Shay, I accept that I'll only get the
proverbial 'two out of three' criteria met in a single product. :)
