Hope you can all help me out.

My dad is due for an upgrade on his phone, and asked me which phone to get. I really have no clue about the current phones on the market. He can choose from these below.

Which would you all suggest and why so I can give him advice if possible?

Thanks in advance if anyone can help
 
What are his primary needs in respect of a phone?
Does he want a business phone, or a multimedia phone...?

I think mostly for business. He has had nokia's since 1992 so its pretty used to there set up.

Not sure if he would want to receive emails on his phone unless on business (or if the telkom ADSL is down again)
 
I have the Tytn II. It's working out well for me.
It's a decent business phone.
I will admit to having gotten it because they Xperia X1 wasn't out yet, and I couldn't wait any longer, but I am enjoying it.
 
I would guess ...

Nokia E51 -FREE DIGITAL CAMERA FREE (solid business phone)
Nokia E65 -FREE BLUETOOTH PHOTO FRAME FREE
Nokia 6300 -FREE NOKIA 6300

or if a GPS is a must

Well thanks all. Seemed like the HTC won. They never had the Tytn in stock, but his old phone had died, so he took the Diamond which they had. Mostly due to size, and also so that he can use some of his excel spread sheets on.
 
I love HTC. I think the original TyTN was discontinued cos the TyTN II came out a while back, but you can still get it 2nd hand.
