I'm planning to buy a new mobile. I've consulted friends and family, gone thru hundreds of sites but I'm still confused. So here's my dilemma, I need a mobile with the following features:

1. Needs to have a large display to read pdf files.

2. Mp3 player

3. RAM atleast 124 mb

4. Atleast 2 gb expansion

5. Camera atleast 2 mp

6. And lastly it shud be a touchscreen (this feature is not so essential and I can do without it)

Budget: upto 15K

N78 has around 45-50mb free RAM after bootup but should be sufficient. If you want more RAM then u gotta spend more and get N82 and if you want touchscreen too then 5800 xpressmusic which comes with a 8GB card bundled. But upto 15k ur only choice is N78

Thanks guys for the suggestions. N78 seems like the perfect phone 4 me. But I'd still like one final opinion. So here's the comparison for the phones:

If ne1 has ne objections to this marriage kindly speak up (N70 is the mobile I'm using at the moment).

Yeah u r right. Now I'm again confused. But don't u think 128mb is more than sufficient? Also I read somewhere that touchscreen mobiles are very delicate and if u damage the touch screen the phone is absolutely worthless. So wat's ur opinion on this?

Also n78 and touch viva, both have the same screen sizes.

The number of colors for the display of the nokia model are also comparatively high.

Yah u r correct on both the points....actually Touch Viva is a windows mobile soo it needs more RAM....and touchscreen mobile r bit delicate...Actually ur requirements 100% match with touch viva

Screen size is different...n78 has 2.4inch and viva have 2.8inch

No.The number of colors is not the parameter for screen clarity...My T700 has 256k colors but its much clearer then Nokia's 16 million colors.
Please see a demo before buying.....u can also refer *www.youtube.com
