It's wasting time to learn/understand this new interface all over again. It's been 2 weeks now and it's working better, but still not great compare to K800. Hope this help.

that said, i've been using SE's since the t68 and i don't understand how it could possibly take you more than two weeks to adjust to the menu changes if you've used SE's in the past. |

First, I've to state my K850 is "Tim" branded (Europe version, I suppose). Lets just say the touch button is pretty difficult to work with, have to put the right amount of pressure to activate, the "back" button is gone, the usual left right softkey layout with short cut / cancel button below, has changed positions. The "call" and "hang up" button is quite small to press (maybe just me), also, in home screen, the right soft key is set for carriers internet shortcut and that's annoying everytime I accidentally press it (I do have the same problem with my k800 handset tho, just upset they didn't fix it). Even now, I still try to press the touch button (the previous soft key position) to answer a call when there's a dedicated answer button (not use to yet). File manager folder (use to be a sub menu) moved under organizer which took me a while to find it and I have to create a short cut for it, alarm clock have it's own icon stand alone in the menu which is weird and waste a useful spot. I got use to the key pad layout (well, I have to), just not comfortable and not as easy access compare to the previous model, IMO.
