Help me choose new phone

Well I hate to do it, but I've been looking around here, and I still need some help narrowing down the list. First off, I'm just a regular guy, I don't have to have the perfect cell phone. I want a pretty good camera, and mp3 playback, speaker isnt that important, as I assume I will be using heaphones or the headset to listen with. Of course looks, price, and other factors are going to weigh in. I dont want to spend more than about 450 bucks, which is gonna make some of these phones questionable to say the least, but hey who knows maybe I'll get lucky. I was thinking of the following phones

nokia 6620
nokia 6230
motorola v710
sony ericsson k700i

and perhaps if i come into some money, the nokia 7610 or the nokia 6260.

Help me out with narrowing it down, or if you know of some models I missed, feel free to add to the list. Also I live in the southeastern united states. Thank you for your time and energy.

This guy is telling me the 7610 is lacking in memory and it is unupgradable. Is this true? And if they are all good phones, which do you feel is best bang for bucK?

Well I have done some more surfing and browsing around. Came to the conclusion that if I am going to spend 400 on a phone, it better look good. Effectively this rules out the 6620 and 6230. I've also ruled out the v710 for various and asundry reasons.
So I'm really considering the 6260 (which apparently isnt released in the us yet, so I don't know if anyone would carry it), the 7610 and the k700. So realistically thats only the k700. Thanks for the input.
