    You aint going to find a normal phone with wifi,only smartphones have them,e61,n91,9300i and v1240 offered by vodafone have wifi but they start at 350 to 650 on prepay,o2 offer the xda range of pda phone which start around 350 contract...The conclusion your not going to find a cheap wifi,cheapest is buying of ebay!

    Nokia E50 and E70 will be out later this month, their a normal phone with wifi, same spec as E61 but much smaller.

    No you didn't prove me wrong,all the phones mentioned are smartphones,they all run symbian os which is a operating system so you can install apps meaning they can do "smart" stuff!A normal phone to me something like a nokia 6230 etc!My money is on a e70 waiting for to be released on vodafone!I had a v1240 which i bought on ebay for 260 so i would go for that, pm me for a trusted seller name!

    Hey thanks all I'll look on enbay now, is there any slimish phones, for me 26mm is quite thick, I thought 19mm (my current sony v600i) was thick.
    I like the look of the e700 but not so fond of the e500.
    So at this moment my top 5 dream phones are:
    1. Nokia n80
    2. Nokia n93
    3 .Nokia e700
    4 .Nokia n91
    5. Nokia n92

    but i'm still looking for one that I can afford, so keep the posts coming!:D
