i don't plan to install ay software and i don't like playing games on phone (i use my lapptop fr that) so the issue of software is ot so important fr me.

Besides 6600 is somwaht bulky and unpocketable. 3230 is good but out of by budget....:-(

"virus_killer" if u have this phone . tell me any other problem u r facing aprt frm the soft ware does this set has a FM radio?

If you can stretch your budget by 1k, then try going for Motorola SLVR L7. Otherwise go for L6,which will easily come within your budget.

Dude.. i m using LG G1800, thought good features and great value for money but it's got poor battery backup..

A phone to exactly match your need and budget will be SE 510i

it's got 28MB internal memory,
Good cam (1.3 MP)
MP3 playback
Bluetooth
Should cost ya around 7K
Which exactly suits your needs..

Terrible battery backup... gets reduced to half a day after 2-3 months of usage..

Never ever go for Nokia 3230. I have it and its processor is slow and the MP3 Sound output is also mono and low.

Go for SONY ERICSSON phones.

well i checked out SE510i in a shop today, it's good though although the internal memory is only 28mb! not even 1 mp3 album will fit into that !!
Guess i'll stick with my 1100 for now and try for a new cell around new year!!
