Hi ,

I want a phone for editing creating microsoft excel and word. I run a small business . So every time transaction happens i want to note it in excel.

My budget is 10 K .

camera is not a requirement nor is the music.

Quick office have better compatibility with msoffice files than microsofts own office version for mobile.

You can use any format , including , doc,xls,ppt , and pdf . You can also do full email including exchange and imap with e63.

You'll be actually able to use those features because the battery will last long enough to use it.

I dont think e63 is bad , just that its not upto the par with nseries's excellent level . E63 still beats many other brands and every windows mobile in sound quality. I think it will satisfy most people's needs

You may try n79 as alternative . But i think landscape orientation makew e63 better document viewer . Keyboard is one of the best in market .And e63 have superb battery life too.

Also look for upcoming e52 , seems to have good multimedia caability but not sure about price

Sound quality is not bad, only thing is that nokia gives average quality headphone in sales package & the loudspeakers are not loud as N73.

Just few queries.

1) Can I open .chm file in any windows mobile phone?

2) Can I open a pdf, doc, ppt or xls file whose size is more than 500mb in a windows mobile phone?

3) Can I install softwares(as in pc windows) in windows mobile phone?

4) How are HTC qwerty phones?

Music quality ? You mean is it a problem with bundled earphones or an internal hardware issue ? It was one of the phones I considered buying before my budget forced me to buy 5130XM.
