5700.....for headphones get Creative EP 630 me thinking of the same...this cost abt 1k...and i dont think it comes with 2 Gb..
so 2gb 1k
total 12.4+1+1 is 14.4k and best buy !!

I think 5700 would be the right choice. The looks are awesome and not the common one.

I will check reviews now on how is camera sound quality and not to forget battery life. :)

i used 5700 for 2 days.the best of the fone r the display and os.the sound thru loudspk is not loud,my 5500 is louder,sound thru headphones is good but no bass boost option.moreover Nokia claims that 5700 has 369MHz proccy but apps show that it has a 192MHz proccy.i didnt find any reason for me to upgrade from my 5500 to 5700,shall wait for 6110 navigator.i think its better to buy N73.

Found one very good review at
*www.allaboutsymbian.com/reviews/item/Nokia_5700_XpressMusic_Review.php
*asia.cnet.com/reviews/mobilephones/0,39051199,40347425p,00.htm

Only one Drawback that people complain about a lot is "no built-in 3.5mm headphone socket." But thats not that important to me :)

Thanks Everyone for ur time
