5600 vs. 7400...which to get?

Ok, I have the VI660 that I got when I activated my service.

Now, I'm looking for a phone with more features, namely:

Camera
Camcorder
Speakerphone
MP3 (or equivalent) ringtones

At first, I was considering the 5600 since it had everything I was looking for, but the more I looked around, I realized I didn't like the look of it. It isn't too bad, but it isn't great.

I do, however, love the look of the 7400, especially with the red faceplate. The main features of this phone seem to be roughly equal to the 5600, with only a few differences (no MP3 player, etc.).

So my main question is this: is the 5600 overall QUALITY (i.e. screen, speakers, reception) worth the extra cost and the uglier phone? I've pretty much set my mind on the 7400, but I might get the 5600 if the quality of the phone is a lot better.

Please reply soon so I can check at work tomorrow before I go buy the phone.

I have decided to get the 5600 over the 7400 primarily because I think the 5600 has a more professional look than the 7400's rugged look. I never looked into the 7400 very hard but I'm not sure if the 7400 has the mini SD card slot or not. I have found that the 5600 is on backorder through Sprint and there seems to be a limited availability so that may help make up your mind. Good luck.
