N73 . or N78 if you can find it.

also consider 5610 . Cam as good as N73 , Sound great. (actually 6500 & 5610 is exactly same phone with different exterior)

i didnt consider 5610 as few of my friends have d mobile and for all of them the toggle button has broken in months time...

i'm pity much inclined towards Nokia as i have not used sony mobiles.!
but N73M is an old phone and i couldn't find a better one in Nokia in that range..
so a greater dilemma between N73M and sony w595..
mainly will the camera in w595 will be equivalent or better than n73.?!

n73 is a very gud performer, but again, it is very old...not the eye-turner type...

I suggest you try out the SE C510 and the SE W705 too. The W705 is the best sounding phone in its range with superb earphones bundled with it.

My choice wud be N73ME for a gr8 audio experience and 3.2 MP cam. Pair it with the EP-630.

@dreamcatcher are you a fan follower of W705 or what, now m getting in bad mood I see everywhere u suggest W705 which is priced around 16K(lil more than that) and you say it is 15K,
W595 is good but ii lacks most of the important camera features.

C510 is good and very well priced you can easily get it in 10.8-11.4K even in costly shops. spend some bucks and buy a good ear phone like EP-630 and you will find it to be very good, as per my say C510 is better than W595 unless and untill u are looking for a slide.

about W890i I see, its reception is not as good, I see that compaint in most of the places otherwise it is quiet good.

N73 is quiet good but it has gone old, and you will find it to be compartively slow

LOL!! I have a C905 whcich beats the crap out of any phone out there and should fan follow a W705. Just letting you know that if you are into music, its the best choice in that range. With wifi. And here it costs 15k. Direct from the manufacturer.

C510 is a better buy in my say, N73 M has gone quiet old, C510 surges over it as per me in price and being a good overall phone too.
