well whatever he buys his requirement of S60(symbian) points to N series,

dude you seriously need to reconsider this. because N72 and N70 which are in your price reach (8K) are not much of good mobiles now.

I don't think Nokia has any plans to launch 6120 Classic here in India, or else it would have done so already. It is available in the big stores without bill but I don't think its worth it.

clmlbx you can go for 6233. Its a good phone.

naah mate its little over 9K, but is symbian.
6233 in nearto 7K is a good buy, front speakers are real good. in any other phones mostly they are on rear, which is kinda bad.
you will really enjoy this phone

^^ ya .......... I know at present it is of no use but better to have it if you can get in you budget.......
India is a country of miricle and hope ........... and there are many other features too

6233 is nice choice but n72 is really a worst thing
instead you can go for k550i a nice mobile with 2 mega pix decent camera and decent looks and having other good features also and if you want better music quality you can flash it to w610i and get both cybershot and walkman in a single phone and price is around 7k.

no point in going for a 3g phone now...it will take a year to get it launched ...i hope,.....but by then you will be in a position to buy better phones.
