21 Months and kaput

In February 2004 Michele and I both got new mobile phones. The Nokia 3650s served us pretty well.

My phone started to die this summer and we ended up getting Michele a new Samsung SGH-D500 and I took over using her Nokia. Last weekend we were over at friend house and their two year-old dropped my phone in the toilet it seems. The Phone was soaking wet and after several days, it still refuses to function.

I'm in the market for a new phone and I call upon Loyal Cruft Readers for advice. What phone should I get?

Things I want in a phone:
Tri-band - good radio
Sound - good audio quality on calls
Bluetooth
Camera - 1+ Megapixel would be nice, flash would be cool
MMS & SMS messaging

Things that don't matter to me in a phone:
Email
Ringtones
PDA capability
