SE K700i if you can do with 41MB of non-expandable memory. Just buy a USB-dongle or interface cable for phone and 41MB will be enough.

If nokia, 6600 is good but no FM, instead it gives expandable memory. Just keep in mind that for using that expandable memory, u need to pay extra for the memory cards :p

The Nokia 6230 is an amazing phone if it falls in your budget. I would suggest that you go for this phone.

Even though the 6230 is an amazing phone, I would not recommend it because it is an outdated model now. It has been replaced by the 6230i in the market. I would recommend K700i unless you want to store lotsa MP3s in your phone, in which case you would need expandable memory.

yeah k700i is a good choice! using certain software a 4 minute mp3 can be compressed to about 600-800kb! and this way it can hold lot of music files! also mp4 video files are small in size!

Agreed.. K700i + FMA is really cool

Agree with you absolutely. To others, simply try it if any of your relative or friend have one and you will know why this one beat both SE700i and N6600.
