5mp cam/wi-fi mobile phone advice

Hey guys and gals,

I'm looking for a new phone. My k800 is dying a slow and horrible death. This new phone's gonna be a long term affair (2 years), so really need it to have these features:

* 5MP camera
* decent flash
* wi-fi connectivity

What can people recommend me? I was looking at the SE C902, but a couple of my friends have them, and their interface is slow/clunky and the SW has a tendancy to crash/fail completely. SO that's out of the question.

Thoughts please,

Ed

    I highly recommend the Nokia N82. Its probably the best 5MP camera phone with a decent Xenon flash and it has Wi-Fi. Should meet your easily.

    The N82 and N79 are almost identical. The only major difference is the weight:

    N82 = 114g
    N79 = 97g

    N79 looks like a winner. Cheap and cheerful.

    The major and significant difference between the two (given the OP's expressed list of priorities) is that the N82 has a Xenon flash and the N79 doesn't.

    Don't laugh at banana republics. :rotfl:

    As a result of how you voted in the last three General Elections,
    you'd now be better off living in one.
