Can anyone help me out?
1. Brand
Nokia prefered. (mostly for Symbian OS). Sony Ericsson also acceptable.

2. Budget
RM1k - RM1.5k

3. Specs
Autofocus camera required (upgrading from K550). Music not important (got iPod). Organizing functions are the deciding factor (needs excellent calender, planner, reminders, etc.)

4. Type/Size
Strictly bar only. Anything else will go out of shape within 6 months. I'm a very heavy user. Not that I don't take care of my phone, but the color of my K550 changed after 6 months O_o.

I have Nokia 6620 classic in mind. Can't find anything else to rival it, and I'm troubled by many reviews claiming the keypad is flimsy. I'm a phone abuser, remember?

Thanks.

So far I've narrowed it down to 5320XM and N82. Problem is that the 5320 has an inadequate camera (upgrading from autofocus) but does everything else right.

As for N82, it's costing a lot of money, and does almost everything a N95 does. Problem? Keypad. I used a K550 and couldn't wait to change out of that "rice grain" buttons.

Is there really no other alternative?

Darkcroation is selling it for RM850. biggrin.gif

Well you have a point there..

Anyone else who thinks N78 is better than N81? biggrin.gif

I say don't buy N78. I think that it has amazing features etc. But the keypad cannot be used. I've used that kind of keypad before (SE K550) and cannot wait to get out of it. Every review on the net has criticized the N78 keypad, so I'm afraid that has spoilt an otherwise perfect phone.
