I just posted the following message (and thanks to Johan Wevers for his
informative reply). However, as a parallel thought, I am wondering if
there is a model without color screen, which would have all other
modern features but by skipping color screen may provide significantly
better battery performance? While I like color, everything else being
equal I'd prefer better battery charge life.
The trick is "everything else being equal". Is there a "deluxe" nokia
without color screen or do you have to accept color if you want other
good things?
Thanks.

Not what you asked, but I have 6100 and 6610 and both come with
screen savers. Thus battery life should not be a great concern.

I know only the 6310i. But that one is much bigger than a 6610.

That's where the screensaver is for.

The 6310i will give you over a week's time for battery life and close
to two weeks on just standby.

The 3510i will give you a week, has a colour screen and has big
separate keys for texting.
