@Anubis: Looks really nice. How different is it from E75? Any more suggestions which are similar to this?

@nikeel: Thanks for the link. Blackberry is out of question now :)

Most of the Operators have launched a 299/- plan which entitles you for unlimited Mail and Chat service. Though one would be unable to use application like Facebook, Google map (as it require GPRS to update the map) or browse internet.

Think I'll dump my P527 for a BB soon.

Yes. That's the Blackberry Lite plans which I have mentioned in my post.

IMHO that plan is useless ....unless you are using your BB as a second phone.

1. Nokia E75 has office doccument editor but Nokia 5730 has office doccument viewer.

2. Nokia E75 camera and pic quality is disastrous

Nokia 5730 camera and pic quality is decent , good , accurate colour represantation

3. Nokia 5730 video recordings are in mpeg4 format. As for video recording, the Nokia 5730 XM camera shoots in VGA resolution at 30 fps captured in MPEG-4 format. This seems to cause quite a controversy as some Nokia specs pages claim VGA@15fps. But trust us, the 5730 shoots in VGA@30fpas and you can check out a video sample, if you wish.

This is a decent achievement which turns out equipped with VGA@30fps video recording.

There is no more differences between Nokia E75 and Nokia 5730

Nokia 5730 is 13.7k in kolkata

How about the 5800XM? I think recent price cuts by Nokia have placed it at a very reasonable 13K.

Nokia 5800XM is good for OP's whose requirements are music quality , touchscreen.

He purely wants it for business purposes and Four-row side-slide QWERTY keyboard is the best he needs in 15k bracket which Nokia 5730XM has.

Moreover 5730XM music quality is also good and picture quality and video quality is much better than Nokia 5800XM

Nokia 5800XM has resistive touchscreen which creates a lagging in response due to improper touch
 
5730 is not available here! How about Omnia Pro? What is the cost of it in Bangalore?

I saw some videos and found there is a bit of lag in 5800XM. Otherwise it's a great phone to use. Is it slow like in N73? I really liked the response in e51, was very quick and was a pleasure to use..Anything on similar lines?
