I Need a phone with LOTS of contact storage

I bought the cheapest alltel phone available (the LG AX-155) when I signed up with Alltel but the phones contact storage is filled up.

Here's the features I am looking for in the order of importance from most to least

Lots of contact storage
Lots of text storage (twitter fills up my inbox every few hours)
A way to automatically set the rings to go silent on a schedule (eg go silent at 10pm and change back to normal at 6am)
Very responsive interface (anyone who used a nokia 1600 knows what I mean)

Features that use data aren't needed, such as web browsing etc... as I don't use a data, I only make calls and text.

I am considering the Nokia 6255i, but what is stored on the mmc card on these type of phones? Is it just for mp3s, or also for contacts/sms etc...? Also do I need a dual-voltage mmc card to read it on a computer?
 
I only know about nokia phones. That nokia is an s40 so i don't think it will store contact info or text messages on memory card. I could be completely wrong so someone correct me.
 
Thanks for the reply RogerPodacter. I found out the 6255i has bluetooth contact syncing capabilities.

phonescoop.com says 'Phone Book Capacity: shared memory', so I suppose that means it's shared among the other items stored, eg sms etc....

Is there a phone similar to this one but is a candybar, or stick design? Not a flip phone or slider? Flip phones seem flimsy. No matter how durable they make them, they just won't last as long as the old school candybar type
 
Well all nokia s40 phones are the same, so you just need to find an s40 phone that you like. There are TONS of them. Oh wait you are not a gsm user, you use cdma right? So actually there very little other s40 phones out there for cdma. Sorry.
 
I went with an LG AX5000. It has a serial port and is well supported by Bitpim, being very similar to the vx6100.

I was able to move my alltel account to it in 30 minutes using *22898 and not having to talk to customer service. Now I wonder if I could move it to a blackberry 7130? Hmmm.
 
700 or more.

Anyways, I think a step up for me for what I can afford would be to find a pda for contact storage that can dial a phone through bluetooth. And a cdma phone with solid bluetooth support.
