I usually let my thumb do the work. the sylus only comes out occassionally. Thanks to the screen protector.
I have had a Good ownership experience of p910i, so I hope you have the same. The only difference is your needs and use are different than mine.

Contrary to what you say I found that N71 is heavy. The biggest turn-off atleast for me is the lack of compatibility with older symbian apps. and yes the construction is a suspect on this one. how about the lighter and better and easy to use n70(no vga screen) or 6270/6280/nokia 6233(non-smartphone). Not to forget that the latter are cheaper and lighter.

Features required -
1) MP3 player
2) Radio
3) Camera (not much use but hoga toh chalega)
4) A large memory (though a card will be added later on)

Help me out fast - Its going to be an Independence Day gift, need to finalise before evening.

thanks
nokia n70, nokia 6270/6280, nokia 6233, nokia 3250
All are on the lower range of nokia phones with all the features you want. I wouldnt know the exact price.

for other brands.

K750i/w800i (radio, memory stick, AF, Sound Quality, better resale), Benq-siemens EF51 (Q-Fi rocks, small screen sucks), cl71. You can also look at the benq-siemens s88 (cheaper, no radio but better Mp3 player than Sonyericson, better indoor quality pics than SE but inferiors exterior pics, dual flash, oled Display) .
