If you want a touchscreen & a new phone just for the heck of it, better you go for Nokia 5800 XM. Would be cheaper than 20K, + you'll get the apps & games support with S60v5.

X6 would be pretty expensive. Otherwise you can wait for the 16GB X6 without the CWM license coming next year.

Go and have a look at Samsung Jet @ juhu Croma:)
Thy r selling it at 20675.Saw it last week only.
Its way better than 5800 compared to screen and touch effects.:D
Speakers are also good...just the audio quality of earphones is not that good.
plus it has AMOLED screen :hap2:

Practically & Frankly Speaking, wait for the Nokia X6, its gonna rock the market.

The Capacitive screen is really an innovation (for Nokia :p) & mark my words, symbian on that thing will ROCK!!

Only letdown is the panzy, 434Mhz, Arm11, which isnt much of an issue, if one is used to an N97 or even a 5800.

Get a BlackBerry 8520 Curve ! I'm using one right now, and I'm loving it :D

EDIT: It retails for INR 16,000, but comes locked to AirTel. You can get an unlock code for 15$ though

or you could go for this...

Global Easy Buy

works out to 17K. + 8 GB SDHC card will cost u 1k locally + unlock code will cost another 1 K . so for 19K ... you'll get a brand new Htc G1 android based handset that you can load custom roms n stuff. Sweet Deal. I'm getting a black one myself.
