We only get info on new phones for postpaid service, so I dont know if any of them will be available.. Most likely the 6103 will replace the 6101 though since we've discontinued the 6101 for upgrades.

If the 6103 does replace the 6101 it won't be for a while. They would have to go through the prepay inventory first. I know our store still has a few 6101 prepays.

who ever said the x495 and the 6101 were bad phones they have no idea what a bad phone is.

I will not be talking a lot, which is why I am interested in prepaid, but I would like a quality phone.

Both seem like good phones, but the user reviews on phonescoop did raise some questions. If it was only a matter of weeks before an improved model comes out, I can wait. The x495 is very attractive and looks solidly constructed compared to other phones I have looked at. The keys have a quality feel and are not too close together. It is my favorite except it lacks a camera. The reviews mentioned reception problems and the side volume controls not being lockable. The Nokia does seem a little more fragile, but it is a nice phone from appearances. There are a lot of "don't buy" reviews and I get the feeling that the new model addresses some...

Nokias are not very fragile. They're probably the most durable phones out there.

I agree I sell them to construction workers because I know they will take a beating. One of my old Nokias was run over in the middle of the road in front of my work at the time and it still worked for a few months afterwards with no problems. It finally stopped working when my 3 yr old cousin tossed it in a puddle.
