Making a comment as someone who is definitely prejudiced towards Nokia I'd choose the Nokia. *However* do be apprised that the Nokia 6101 only has a VGA resolution camera which means that the camera is good for capturing those last moment things when you didn't have your regular digital camera with you. Quality is likely not good enough to make prints or prints of any size. The way I see it is with prepaid since all you really should be concerned about is voice you're better off staying with the 6030. It's an excellent phone for an entry level phone and has lots more features than some "high end" phones of a few years back. The only thing it really doesn't have is a camera and as I said unless you're going to get a fairly pricey phone with at least a 1.2 megapixel camera I wouldn't make that the deciding factor in getting a new phone. Then again, I have to be really impressed with a phone and get a good deal at the same time to switch and it has to be something that I really consider superior to what I have now. I don't know that I can really say that about my present phone a Nokia 8801. It's a super looking phone, but practically it's less than I would hope for. It does not have good battery life compared to the Nokia 6310i that I used previously for the service (which now sits in my CellSocket with a prepaid account.) Voice quality is not as good (my opinion) and some of the "advantages" such as color screen are of marginal value since it's hard if not impossible to read the display in bright sunlight which was not a problem with the 6310i. Also the polyphonic ring tones which are nice, but nowhere near as noticeable to hear when I'm in a noisy outdoor situation. - - T-Mobile-US on Google Groups: http://groups.google.com/group/T-Mobile-US _ _ Yahoo!
