    Their is a lot to choose from with what your looking for. Do you care which network, or you going to be using a foreign sim straight away?

    My first thought's were a E63. Does all you want, fairly well built, not expensive, and can be unlocked in a shop for about a tenner

    It does have wifi, also look at the e5, it's more or less replaced the e63

    The E63 has always had wifi. Go into the menu, go to wlan and search. When you find your network, just click and add it. You will need your securtiy code (WEP or WPA etc)
