Nokia makes several. The 36XX series, the 6820, and the N-Gage all have bluetooth IIRC. Sony Ericsson has some as well, the T6XX as mentioned above plus the T62U. There's also the Siemens S56.

Looks like you have Sprint, though, so the T608 is the only option right now AFAIK.

I have a Nokia 3650 and it rocks! It's got a huge screen, can be used as a BT modem, has a built in video/still camera, takes MMC memory cards, and plays wav and midi files for ring tones. It's a little large and some people don't like the circular keypad layout, but it's one of the best gadgets I've ever owned.

It may have been pulled already due to reliability problems. No wonder it was never really released. When it was available, it was available only through telesales.

It was the first CDMA bluetooth phone in the U.S., correct? Not surprising that they had issues with it.

Yeah, but the GSM versions of the T608 were far better. The menus are dirt slow and the phone just didn't work very well. In any case, SE got out of the CDMA market anyway. Supposedly one of the new Nokias coming out soon will have BT.
