Not much tinkering with android qwerty phones as most of them lack decent community support other then desire z. Among touch only phones you can check out lg optimus p500 and dell xcd35. Both are rom modder's delight. Unfortunately both have pretty bad camera. Another option you can consider is the original wildfire. Bad screen but otherwise ok camera then these 2 .
 
Thanks for reply guys.

Say if I forget about getting geeky with phone and limit usage to Multimedia,gaming and apps then what else options should I consider?

Also, can anybody tell me from where in Mumbai-Thane I can buy phones at lower price?
 
So far the suggestions are:

LG optimus p500

Dell xcd35

HTC Wildifire S

HTC explorer

Which one should I buy?

More suggestions are welcome as well.

Actually I am using a junk motorola phone for past 4 years and can't really tell how I will use my new phone be I myself don't know.

Please help guys.
