Mobiles with Wi-fi: HTC Touch

Yes the first generation touchscreen star, HTC Touch with its finger friendly touch interface for most commonly used function. Its got Windows mobile 6.1 Pro, Wi-fi, GPRS-EDGE, but only 3 physical keys. It has one of the best handwriting recognition software which recognises whole words rather than one letter at a type. This makes writing with the stylus much faster than for example a SE P1i. You wont be missing a keypad very often.

Its shape is very pocket friendly, with small form and curved lines, making it easy to put and take out of the pocket. Its home page carries a lot of information that can be customised according to the user's need.

Available at cafegadgets for Rs.13699.

Mobiles with Wi-fi: HTC s710

HTC S710 is very dear to me, its got Windows, Wi-fi, GPRS-EDGE and its star attraction, a sideways Sliding QWERTY keypad, which comes apart from the regular keypad on the facia. It is not a touchscreen phone, surfing the net is pretty acceptable with its 2.4'' screen. The phone feels chunky to hold, giving it a great fit in you hand, with all the edges curved. Its not bigger than a normal candybar phone, so great is the design. Latest prices were mentioned on an earlier post.

Mobiles with Wi-fi: Asus P320

Asus P320 is a mini PDA phone operating on Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional platform and packed with features such as GPS navigation EDGE/GPRS and Wifi. It is economically priced at Rs 12,900 on Cafegadgets.com

With one of the largest touchscreens in the market today at 2.6", its pleasure to watch web-pages on this phone without straining you eyes. Another alternative without wi-fi is HTC P3400i, which costs below 10k.
