Ok, Maybe someone here can help me. I know the features I want/need but not finding a phone with all of them. So heres the features that are required.

GSM 850mhz no way around this. (Cingular is the only option in my area)
Bluetooth with A2DP
Voice Dial, (Required for use at work I do alot of driving)
Ringer ID's that work when bluetooth headset is connected
Camera isn't required but a good camera would be nice
Music Player
Memory card Support (2gb preferrably) will settle for 1gb (hot swap)
I don't care if it's flip or candybar.
Please no Smartphones or ppc's, as these cost more and I will never use all of the features.

Now if some one could point me to a phone with these features for no more than $400.00 shipped. The last phones I've had were V180, v3 using it now, E1, E398 (updated to E1), v551, an LG but can't remember the model.

Is there such a phone?
 
Well if your with Cingluar have you checked out the 6682? I know it's techincally a smartphone but S60 is alot easier to use than Windows Mobile or Palm

It should fit every one of your needs

(My N70 is the same as the 6682 with a different casing/better cam/but no 850)
 
I just wanted you to know, but you can can buy a smartphone and/or ppc for way under the price you are specifying which says alot for how much they've come down over the years. If you don't want one of those, then your money is mainly going towards a tried and true company with style and simple approach reigning supreme over the feature set. Check out phonescoop.com for a low-down on phones.
 
Hey thanks for the info. I have checked out the Nokia 6682, the only thing it doesn't have A2DP.
I must be looking in the wrong places or at the wrong smartphones cause most of the ones I see are 400 and up. Also I'm a little confused as some state A2DP in the specs then others don't.

If I do go with a smartphone or ppc do I have to buy extra software for them or what. I have looked at the Motorola A1200 and I also looked at the Nokia 6682, N80.

If I buy a phone with Symbian (S60) is there some way to add the A2DP? Cause the only Nokia phones with it are 8800/8801

So basically what smartphone would you recommend? Symbian or Linux? Thanks for the help.
