I need a phone to take some pics and mainly to be able to browse net in my laptop. so EDGE may be needed.
dont need an mp3 support in mobile as i have an mp3 player.
camera in mobile need not be Hi-fi as i have a digital camera...though i wont be carrying it around all the time...so need a mobile with a camera that can help me take pics in urgent situations...1.3 MP is enough..
Suggest me the cheapest mobile i can get under these conditions...:)
PS: i have a 256 mb and 1 GB sd card with me now...so please suggest a phone that supports this...

If you can get Z3 in 5k then go for it. It is better then either 3110c or 3500c. And yes it can act as a modem.

Nokia 5200 is best if used as modem.
It supports EDGE
Bluetooth speed 60 to 80 kbps
with my idea connection it gives maximum of 21 kbps.

That depends upon the service provider. But I don't think the difference between Class10 and Class 12 will be much. Class 32 on the other hand offers substantially higher speeds.
