I beg to disagree.

The 5210 was the best, it was indestructible, cheap, kept its charge and still was functional even if you rode over it in your bulldozer.

The 8110 was the second imo, but only for the style.

And the 3310-ish were the runners-up. Cheaper than 5k series, and almost as useful.

My brother drove over his Nokia phone with a car, and it cracked the screen. It was still readable enough to place and receive calls, and it was very easy to repair, but it did take damage.

		What was the damage to the car? ;p

		When it comes to Nokia 3310, it is a huge dealer of damage, not so much of a receiver. :D

		I dropped my N900 so hard (by unsuccessfully grabbing for it as it was falling) that it cracked some the sidewalk's fairly brittle concrete. Had no effect on the phone, no case.

I don't disagree individually, but I felt like the 6190 was an excellent balance. If a 5210 (or 5190) rolled a 10 STR, the 6190 was a 9, but a 10 CHR if the 5210 was a 9. It looked good pulled out of an ubiquitous Targus laptop bag but was small enough to be carried in a pocket.

I mean, I'm not going to fault your choices. Reasonable people can disagree on the details here. We're talking about an absolutely stacked lineup here.
