[BTM] T610 vs T616

[Matthew Hart]

I just got my Z600!  It is great, much better screen and much, much better
reception than the T610/T616.  User interface is the same, but it is a flip
phone.  Obviously, different from my P800, but the Z600 is now my favorite
phone.  GPRS speeds with AT&T average around 33.6.
