Now heres the big reason why people like me love Nokia(spl 6600) to any other cell phone device.
The real incident happend to me when yesterday night after having our dinner we were enjoying cool air blowing on the terrace at 3rd floor and one of our neighbour walking on the street called me and I just just replied to him slightly bending on the railing without thinking of my Nokia cell phone which was kept in the front pocket of my shirt and suddenly my cell phone dropped from my pocket and fall on the concrete road. My heart beats starts running over 100 marks watching my nokia 6600 falling from the terrace at 3rd floor to the hard ground. I was not able to think anything else other than the view of falling of my lovely phone. I just ran to the ground floor through the stairs with full speed hitting many things in my way and reached to the place where my cell phone dropped. My neigbour with whom I was talking from the terrace took my cell phone from the road and give to me. As I took the phone in my hand it was on and seems to be working. When I was just checking the condition of my cell phone with such a heavy heart it start ringing after a call of my buddy. He just called me casually asking about any new thing happened with me and I had told him that I am talking with him from the same Nokia 6600, which I have bought before 3 years lending some money from him and just before his call my cell phone fall from 3rd floor. My buddy was also worried about the condition of the phone but I told him that if I am able to talk and hear his voice clearly with the cell phone. After wishing good night to my neighbour I came back to my home and went to bed keeping my phone on table just beside my bed. It was very hard time to sleep for me. But anyhow I got to sleep dreaming all the night only about my cell phone, I have seen in my dream that my cell phone is lost, I awoke many a times in the night to check the condition of the phone.
Today morning I went to a cell repairing shop for check up of my cell phone for any internal damage. I have waited for 15-20 minutes for being the first customer of the shop. The technician checked the phone and told me that phone is all fine but he suggested me just to change the outer body with the keypad as it is damaged to some extent and lost small plastic cover of infrared. The original body cost me around Rs. 500 and I have also asked the technician to perform the normal servicing of the phone. I am feeling lucky and happy that my cell phone is not making any problem even after so many hours.
I have loads of good time with my phone and enjoyed many moments of life. If it was some other cell phone other than nokia then I must have lost my cellphone. My friends and relatives use to suggest me to change my Nokia 6600 but I just smile at them. I dont want to argue with anybody just because of my phone. People around me having well known branded cell phone with many features but I can only rely on Nokia for its durability. I dont know about latest cell phones from Nokia that these are also such robust and durable but now I am confident about Nokia 6600 that it will stay with me for long.
Some General Information on Nokia 6600:
Nokia 6600 was announced in late 2003 but now this lovely cell phone device is discontinued from its manufacturer just because of its popularity. Nokia had stopped manufacturing many of its popular cell phones(like 6600 and whole 3310 series) as they are compelled to promote the other cell phones. But we can still watch this cell phone in many advertisements of the company. Nokia has also advertised this cell phone through many hollywood and bollywood movies. We must have watched Munna Bhai carrying the same 6600 cell phone or some other bollywood and hollywood stars.

It has stand-by of up to 150 hr - 240 hr with a normal talktime up to 2 hr - 4 hr with a one time recharge of the battery.
