The 614c is certainly a well-endowed handset. It's not the first to squeeze so much into a pocket-sized chassis, but there are a few notable features, such as A-GPS, 7.2Mbps HSDPA and a very fast processor. Only the non-VGA screen could possibly be said to be behind the times. What really puts the mockers on its prospects, however, is the fact that it's not only a pretty ugly and bulky phone - especially for one without a sliding keyboard - but also one boasting awkward ergonomics. Its innovative touch ring control simply fails to live up to its initial promise and turns out to be more a hindrance than usable addition.
