Nokia S60 (sucketh?)

3 days into a 10 day trip in Italy, armed with nothing but a nokia symbian fone (ok, i have my laptop too, but thats a different issue). 
Net result - every time I go by a TIM/Wind store, its a struggle to not go in and just by a bloody samsung SII. 
Its just sheer force of will (and desire to complete this experiment) that is preventing me from hurling this phone w/ muttered imprecations...
