mate first give out you budget details
the range for camera phones is really really wide

if you want a really good camera in your phone, i will go in for K700i by Sony. the camera in it rocks

6680 is a better bet than 6630. 6630 is not a 3G phone. 6630 has a 4.5mm 1:3.2 lens, while the 6680 has a 3.7mm 1:2.8 lens. 6680 has a smaller, different sensor that's more light sensitive. More noise, but better for low-light photo-taking. 6680 has 262k colors than that of 65k offered by 6630. 3G phones offer video calling.

^ ^
also 6680 has two camera's one is the 1.3mp one and the other is the VGA one.

6680 is more like a multimedia kind of phone and this 6630 is a business kinda phone.

Also 6680 wont be avialable in india for the next 6-7 months...

Guys thanks a lot,

Well the Slide Design you went blank right ! Let me explain

around one week ago i saw it on TV one smart guy advertising the mobile which has slide in design.

For eg.. The phone no is hidden in slide design ..so when u just press or push it ..it show up the dialing parts. Thts what it means.

ANy way let me know more am really chosy .

Candybar is what i can say more USABLE design.
