Why does it have to have GPRS?

If it doesn't have to have GPRS then obviously I'm gonna recommend the new Harrier.

Since its fast, has a camera, records video, runs PocketPc 2003se, is on a much faster network than Voda's GPRS, has better coverage, better support!

If you live in New Zealand and would want to go with telecom I might suggest the sanyo 8100 if you live in nz that costs less than 700.00. I don't remember how much it is but it is definitly a must get phone. It has awesome camera, better games like splinter cell: Pandorra Tomorrow, the italian job plus allot more awesome games. That phone is the best at taking photo's. The one that I have, the hyundai tx-95c is not the greatest at taking photo's because it isn't that great so i hope you live in new zealand because all the info is about the phone in new zealand

The Sanyo 8100 is not available at present. Its last price in NZ was $499 RRP. It should be available again sometime in December.

The Hyundai TX95c has been superseded by the TX115c

My vote goes to the Motorola RAVR V3 or nokia 6630 - both excellent - yes the 7610 is good. Also if you don't want a camera but want teh best functionality at teh cheapest price buy an N-gage QD.

I have an Alcatel One Touch 565 for $350 it's an excellent phone. for a 0.3 megapixel Camera it's fantastic! It has GPRS any everything else you specified.
