i want to change to a flip phone but dont want to step backward in features compared to 6230..im willing to go as far back as v600 but no further, i was thinking the mitac mio 8390 is really gd, the lack of bt doesnt bother me cause it comes with a data cable so i dont need to use bluetooth USB to transfer files to and from my pc.. wat other flip/clamshell phones are a gd match?

gx30 was an option but too many restrictions.

I was very impressed by that Sharp GX30 phone, this chick at a club took some pics of us and it just blew me away of how good quality they were. Nice big screen and a FLASH camera thats just awesome!

How much is the Sharp GX30? Ive heard that its past $1000 AUS... no bloody way Id spend so much money on a phone... $480 for my 7250i had me cringe but what can you do.

I just really need a flash thats all... oh and maybe a better screen.

I dont have 900 bucks for a silly phone, my 7250i will do just fine for now.
Can I unlock it to use with Optus? or is it only locked to Vodafone?

Great contacts you have. The GX30 is available for $750 from most Vodafone phone shops (just not the official ones).
