Its does everything you want amate, awsome phone. Though i dont use half the feature 
You can put software onto them which is really cool. My mate whos got one as well whos a computer buff put some software on to his phone so he pressed a button on it and would change the slides on power point via bluetooth 
Oh funky is that!
Also put stuff liek Mp3's as ring tones instead of paying silly money to get them of the TV. Camera is VERY and the memorary is good with external memorary card

Sorry to tell you but the 6630 has quite a few software issues, mainly when switching from 3g to 2.5 (gprs). Better off going for a 6680.. top phone!

get a 6630, if you are used to charging your phone up every other day.... then its fine....
i just got annoyed with it, cos whenever i was out, the battery seemed to be flat, meaning i couldnt use it alot etc....
camera is great 1.3 megapixel with great zoom in, on the big screened 6630
saying that the 6230i has the same camera now, thats one of the updates

Yeah I was aware of the camera update on the 6230 ect ect, I was looking into getting the 6600 when I got my 6230 and always fancyed one with a bigger screen (just that the 6600 is slooooooooowww!)
Now is the time I think
Thanks for your help

Smartphones are the way to go! (6600, 7610 etc...)
I just got a 7610 on upgrade, and have installed the sat nav software on it. Its the most useful phone I've ever had!!!
I thought the 6230 was the bollox until I got this!

You'll regret it, my mate has the 6630. He bought it for the very same reason your going to... big screen etc....
2 months later, battery keeps going flat and the phone keeps jamming.
Get the 6230i, i have the 6230 and will be upgrading to it V soon. A much, much better phone

The short battery life is pretty much the only problem my missus has had with it, apart from it not having a keylock as standard. I found an aftermarket software one which seems to only work when it wants too.
Apart from that its been perfect. I beleive it is only the early ones that suffered with software probs and the newer ones have been updated

the 6630 is a tad better. Better camera, bit more memory, longer battery life etc.. but essentially the pretty much have the same features.
I've never used a 6630. But I've not really had any software issues with the 7610. (I had shit loads with the 6230 when it first came out!)
And the sat nav software is worth its weight in gold

re: battery life.
Have u seen the prices of nokia batteries on ebay? You can buy a desktop charger which comes with and charges an extra battery at the same time for about Ł10!

aut key lock? u lasy mofos just turn it on your self on two buttons Battery life was crap to start with! But i alway put my phone on charge every night even if it doesnt need it etc. And after a month or two of that i dont have no battery issues now unless heavy usage which is the same with every other phone.

cant stress enough how many faults the 6630 has mate, ive already done 4 returns on them today.. other bad thing about em is, to do a 3g call you need it to be in the docking station.. which is shit if ur out and about.
suprised you dont like the 6680.. tis a mint phone. you seen the Nokia N series coming out soon ???
Also sum1 said about battery life on a 6230/6230i.. should last for 3-4 days with the heaviest usage, otherwise theres a handset/battery fault.. nokia's nkbl5c is a mint battery!!

but yeah u can make a 3g vid call but it means having ur phone backwards etc..
You know in japan they "ONLY" have a 3g network! and the phones over there have 6mega pixel cameras etc.. bloody stupid the technology they have!
