Siemens SK65

It is almost a complete analog of S65, differs in support of Push to Talk, more memory (64 MB) and a lack of expansion slot and a camera. In addition to a usual mail there is a support of RIM BlackBerry that is interesting mainly to corporative clients. The device has an unordinary opening mechanism that got the name of cross-to-type (x2type). The presence of QWERTY keypad shows that the device is oriented on businessmen. The main weakness is the lack of a camera.
