Go for W580i if you want a smart, simple, sliding music phone, or ROKR E6 if you want a PDA style touch screen enabled music phone or N73 if you want a great camera and full smartphone capabilities. There is no way anyone can pick one phone from these as they're all different. Choose according to your needs.

(Offtopic: sometimes i think its better to be a fanboy of a particular company. You don't get confused when it comes to buying. Just buy the product of your fav company:D)

Check here *snipurl.com/1s6lf

Pop-Port™ interface with USB 2.0 full speed

EGPRS class B, multi slot class 11 (UL 118.4 kbps, DL 236.8 kbps)

There's no EGPRS without GPRS. Just like Bluetooth 2.0 devices are Bluetooth 1.1 compatible.

Stay away from Motorola phones. Damn slow UI, proprietary OS.

K790i is much better phone than W580i.

N73 is one of the best phones nokia ever produced and you will not regret if you get it.

also check E65, which comes with wifi, edge, 3g, symbian OS 91. ver S60, VoIP over LAN, push email, gorgeous display. but no FM, good music playback.

One more worthy mention is HP IPAQ 512 (rs.12k)

64MB RAM, 128MB ROM, EDGE, wifi, windows mobile 6 OS, TI OMAP 850 200MHz processor, Pocket office,
