Man this review is from ages ago... plus it's not reliable since they reviewed the beta or test version of the phone. I know people who own it from another forum.... The screen is exactly like the 6600 but a bit smaller that's all. It's one of the best 65k screens around. Even the cam is the same as the 6600.
This is 100% sure.
Waiting to get this phone.....

Also does anybody know how to specify the gateway settings for MMS or WAP. I tried using proxies, but they don't seem to work. I can access my internet okay, since it uses no gateway ip, but both mms or wap don't work..
I tried the Nokia MMS setting configurator, but they don't have the 6230 listed for my region (Asia Pacific - Middle East) and the other series 40 phone configuration (6800) doesnt seem to work
Help anybody?

Hey guys who owns a 6230: Where is it manufactured? Made by Nokia or in Hungary? How much did you pay for it and where?
And does it have a bug in its bluetooth?
Does it have any problems and/or bugs?
Please reply.
Thankyou for your time all.

Just got mine, for zero on a business plan with Optus in Australia. Mine is made in China. It has everything I want in a phone-small, camera with video (up to 4 minutes), bluetooth, radio, MMC slot (32mb included). Havent noticed any disappointments with it so far. Havent tried bluetooth yet, but got the car kit with it, so when its installed I will look

Mine is made in Hungary,bought from the Carphone warehouse (bluewater,kent).
Very nice and feature packed phone.
Just wish i could find the settings to use standard o2 wap rather than gprs as i have 500 mins per month free using wap.
Series 40 seems a little dated now,but it is very fast than prevoius models.

Hi, I just typed the setting in manualy and they work.
Try this.
Homepage http://wap.o2.co.uk
Proxies Enable
Primary Proxy 193.113.200.195 after that the phone will say Port 8080, just press OK
Leave secondary proxy as it is
Data bearer GSM Data
Now go to Bearer Settings and select
Dial up number 915000
Authentication type Normal
Data call type ISDN
Data call speed 9600
Log in type Automatic
Username o2wap
Password Type "password"
Display terminal window, Dunno what this does but set it to NO
Hope these work for you.
