I hope Vodafone only applies a cosmetic interface to the 6630. Although 
you need a separate base station for video calls, an open Series 60 
mobile is worth the sacrifice.

I'm already using a Nokia 7600 with my Vodafone Japan USIM but if I was 
to upgrade to another unsubsidised mobile, Motorola's UIQ powered A1000 
looks pretty tempting: http://www.symbian.com/phones/mot_a1000.html
