N6600
+Symbian OS
-Battery life (like all phones with Symbian OS)
N6230
+small and handy
+mp3-player
+it can quite everthing you want from a phone(Video recording, Picture ID, etc. ;except for installing Symbian OS apps)
-no Symbian OS
-Battery life (if you listen to mp3s often)
It's a hard choice, but you've got to see for yourself, what needs you've got.
The N6600 can play mp3 only with the help of some tools and only in mono.
If you can life without Symbian OS, get the 6230

N6600: 6MB internal memory
N6230: 400kb internal memory
The biggest factor is the price. The N6600 is currently available for around 380US$ (allright, it's cheaper in a few other places). My contacts have informed me that the N6230 will be priced at around 400US$ when it is released next week in Dubai. This means that lesser functionality for a greater price. Hence, ur best option is the N6600.

Internal memory doesn't really counts due to they both use MMC cards... in my opinion...
The cheapest price for the 6600 is 399 Euro and the 6230 359 Euro (here in Germany)

I don't believe it
In Dubai, the price of the N6230 is much more that that of the N6600.

However, on a serious note, the N6220 looks outdated in front of the N6230.
