There are a lot of complaints regarding the battery backup of SE Xperia Ray!...it seems there is a battery drain issue resulting in a battery backup of at max 1 day on standby mode :O
SE Xperia Neo V is a good phone:) ..though it most probably would launch in Q4(Oct-Dec)

Both phones are out of your budget and will cost 22-25k. Ray might be available by diwali however Neo V will take longer....

not sure if there are any wifi issues. Honestly i havent seen many people around using this handset, however this doesnt mean its not good. You should hunt a few blogs to see if there is an issue. BTW i have checked the screen and though its not amoled, its still gorgeous...
you should ask in this thread about the wifi issues *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/mobile-monsters/146078-my-google-nexus-s-review.html
