nokia 6260 is a little large but a great phone. i had a look at the samsung d500 but was'nt keen as it has a slight ridge round the edge and with it being quite small look awkward for texting. the Motorola looks like a nice phone but i've been put off by friends that have v500 that have poor reception(both on the same network 02 )

Nokia 6230 works great and doesn't need a degree to work in or the Sony p910i but thats got a bit to much on it for me tho!!!

Both superb and both have bluetooth which is most important these days.

I've got the V3 and my mate has the D500.

Being honest I love the look of my phone, it is the best looking phone on the market, but the D500 would be my choice if I had to decide again. Its a very good phone, with some very cool features.

It has to be a D500.


Then I got a car to match.


I run it with a visor mounted Jabra SP100.I didn't fancy the bluetooth headsets.

i had the D500 and stuck it on ebay...funny enough my mate has one too and is now doing the same.

its ok as a phone but i wanted soemthing a bit more rounded so got an imate jam.......best thing i bought in a while. Stuck a 1gig card in it and now it runds all my mp3s as well as a full pocket pc PDA.

for business being able to call up any telephone number for one of 1000 contacts i have stored in it then call them directly is superb.....also on incoming calls it will display the matching client file if it sees the number in my data base.

I 'd hate to see Flat Erics wife.

He seems to do "ugly" bloody well.


Oh and SE 910i if you want the lot in a phone.

Nokia 7610 is worth looking at. Although it is quite a big phone, it comes fully spec'd with all up to date features, and it looks COOL
