6682 vs 9300?

I am the current VERY unhappy owner of a Cingular 8125. Since it has been less than my trial time with the phone I went back the other day and asked to trade for the 9300. Prior to this I had a 6820 which I was very happy with for 2 years. The only problem I had was toward the end of my contract the phone quality was starting to get poor. The store didn't have any 9300's in but will have a shipment come in tomorrow. Here is my problem. The 9300 doesn't have a camera and not sure but possibly not Vibrate alert and I believe it doesn't have an alarm clock which I use a lot. I was also shown the 6682 when I told them I had the 6820, and they tried to say that that was an upgrade phone for mine. It doesn't have a qwerty keyboard or the large memory that the 9300 has. I could get the 6682 and a bluetooth keyboard (yes its that important to me) or if someone knows of a plug-in keyboard that is inexpensive? Or should I get the 9300 and carry a camera with me because I also use the phone feature all the time. Nokia needs a less expensive blend of these 2 phones! The 8125 had all these things, but the phone quality is a 2 on a scale of 1-10. I still can't connect with bluetooth after 3 weeks with the phone and it took over 10 days to get my contacts in with a synch cord! 😡 Just wondering what other people would buy? And no I can't get the 9500.

How much do you use the qwerty keyboard? I have an HP hw6515 and I rarely used the qwerty keyboard. The phone kept powering down, so I replaced it with the 6682 and don't mind not having the qwerty keyboard. Another option is the E61, or E62 model...

I write more fast with T9 that with a qwerty keyboard� but I don�t need to write very. But it is a always current discution. Therefore it has who prefers a modality and who prefers another one.
