Dear All,
I want to buy a new mobile for my brother. I would request you to please suggest me a better option depending upon the following requirements:

As he needs to travel a lot, there are two main requirements for a mobile phone.
It should have a good music player with external memory card slot and bluetooth/usb connectivity to connect with laptop for using internet on the laptop.
Bluetooth 2.0 and EDGE class 10 are the maximum priority.

Budget upto 12K
Form Preferably Mono (rather than Slide/Flip)
External Card Slot Yes
Internal Memory Yes
BlueTooth 2.0
EDGE Class 10
USB 2.0
Music Player Yes
Handsfree Yes
FM Radio Yes, but can be compromised
Camera Not important at all

I have selected some models like:
Nokia 6233, 6300 E50
SE Z710i

​
ThanQ in advance
