Aluminium feels better than plastic, build quality is good especially for those amongst us who are clumsy, it's got 3G...need I say more.

Thats 2 (I said apart from 3g). I prefer plastic, never ever had a problem with it.
I should take it cos of build quality??? nah.. Me like the features better on K750.
+ look for the thread bout the candy bar phone(k600) I made up my mind back then already that its not for me.
I understand that you had it and played with it b4 ne 1 else and that might have been your reason to prefer it.

Lets face it, the better the phones are now, the better they will be for our next upgrade. They'll probably standardize onboard memory to keep costs low, and put memory card slots in all phones. 3g will become standard with cam phones (not on all though as cam phones are illegal in certain countries).
We'll shop with our phones instead of money, connect to our bank using gprs, bluetooth authorization to the till and go home.
The possibilities are endless, but eventually most things will become as standard as a colour screen.
But the better the competitions phones are, the better your fave companies next phone will be. Either way you win.

@ Kryptik,
Some time ago,using my old username,I discussed at some length the diadvantages regarding the 6630,when Mario was asking about it back then. As brix mentioned, people were put off with the absence of any video calling camera on a 3G handset,although one could use the 6630's docking port, which has a dedicated video camera integrated into it,but who's going to want to be limited to only doing video calling when the phone is only attached to the stationary docking port?
Another point I did make back then, which was not mentioned in brix's reply, was the unnerving number of complaints by 6630 users,both on esato and numerous other sites, regarding the phone's dodgy and unreliable f/ware and/or software. Having said all this, they can now be obtained very cheaply at independent dealers and markets in the UK. The usual independent dealer that I deal with,who sells them unlocked and PAYG, sells them for a mere 150 quid.With so many options out there and the 6680 stealing much of the limelight at the mo,they really only sell these in significant numbers by making the price so attactive....you pays yer money etc.
If you are not too fussed with 3G,then maybe it might be worth waiting for the k750i or D600. Wouldn't you be a bit miffed if you got a D500 now and a month or so later, the D600 makes its appearance on the SA scene,with all its better features? (check out
http://www.gsmarena.com for specs.)
As regards the p-series, well I have only praise for them. If you can live with the bulky dimensions and non-megapixel camera,they still pull out more rabbits out of the hat than most phones. Then again, they ain't cheap, and the much-rumoured new P series,supposedly having all the extras like wi-fi,3G etc. will certainly cost a premium,initially anyway.
Obviously,the info above is a mixture of facts and my own experiences of these phones, but I hope it still assists you with narrowing your choices down.
