My questions may sound a bit wierd.

Considering the fact i have a budget of 20K +

And want to buy a phone with good camera, music and storage capabilities.

Which of the NOKIA or any other would you guys suggest.

I just had a look on the nokia site, it displays, multiple options that has 4GB/8GB memory.

Which of them is good. Review comments on sites like gsmarena, gsmworld etc are a bit confusing.

the handset should be available across the counter at any nokia shop.

i can wait, after booking , but would hate and avoid doing so.

How about Nokia N95?
Otherwise N73 is also good.Good camera & music playback.

i am myself waiting for K850i to but and this will be one of the best fones from SE. I donlt prefer Nokia as they have the worst batteries. Believe me dude this set will be Awesome. 5MB Cam and as always great sound from SE. backed by great looks. W960i has a touch screen and a 8gb buildin mem.

Most nokia fones have excellent batteries.. they give excellent backup...
btw n81/n95 8gb ll be around >22k and >30k respectively... just a guess..
w960i shd be upward of 32k and k850i shd be around 25-27k too... again its a guess...
