Snubbed by Nokia
I was eyeing one of these up http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-38546676 probably too expensive but quite likely good.

I had one of the last true Nokias, got it from a sponsorship deal, the software was awful but the hardware was excellent... saying that it ended up with its guts pulled out via the sim card slot within a year or so.
I suspect their own software then Microsofts was what shafted them, any monkey can install Android on good hardware. Fingers crossed they don't mess around with it too much.

I had Ericsson at this time ( stylish alternative to Nokia, and still very much alive ) , this was way before big jobs decided to emulate Lg and cram a computer onto mobile telephone platform

You're still hanging onto the dream that your old Prada brick was somehow copied by Apple aren't you. More likely the other way round.

I loved my little Ericsson flip phone, I think it was early gsm and it was so small people thought I was talking to my hand. I was a bit of a **** at the time I'm sure, think Dom Joly.

My 1st phone was a Sony on the analogue network where when someone answered your call and hung up that odd second cost you £1. Happy days when mobile contracts really were expensive I remember if you didnt get my phone it was a house phone with a car battery and £4 a minute
