The C5-03 has a resistive screen... The P350 is one of the ugliest phones I have ever seen. If you can sacrifice 3G, look at the Corby II.

In any case, 3G prices are so high currently that you would spend up more than your phone's value in 3G bills for 6-8 months usage of 3G!!

@ thedeadghost: Get the Samsung Champ... unless you are an audiophile in which case you should look at the Sansa Clip+

Battery backup
Tough, if possible (for rough use)

Dislike
touchscreen (they seem to be more fragile and need lots of care)

If you want touch+Qwerty Android then the below three falls under your budget. Android is a touch based OS. You cant get a non-touch android phone because there is no phone like that!
Motorola Charm ~ 9.5k
Samsung Galaxy 551 ~ 9.4k
Samsung Galaxy Pro ~ 12k

Best options in your budget.
Dell XCD 35 ~ 10.5k followed by LG Optimus One P500 ~ 9.7k

Also battery life of Android phones aint great. You will hardly get 2 days from a small screen Android phone. The larger screen ones barely last a day on a single charge (Moderate - heavy use)
