3. WAP

4. VIDEO

5. Monthly Charges

6. Streaming TV

or any other gimmick!!

Oh, yes, and its got to be under £40 .......

Stick it an a rollerskate and attach a bit of string and your laughing !

 

Looks good to me, price????

Pete

Well ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I don't want to appear greedy ........ but, a flip-fone would be more in tune with me being a go-getter!!

I went out on a mission to find one of those last week and got a Nokia 2650 from phones4u for 29.99 last week. They only do them on Orange. They're quite nice too, wee flip phone great colour screen but not too gay I lost my SE K700i and am NOT forking out that much money again for something I won't use!

 

My nephews were unlocking those and selling them on e-bay earlier this year ...... made quite a killing on them too!!

I think they were selling them for £35 unlocked.

Pete

 

Thanks for that .............. it's pig ugly though, isn't it??

Maybe, if you like the Blob-Eye Scooby this might float your boat??

Pete

 

If you only use £10 in calls per annum then you wont be taking it out much to look at it.

 

What does anyone think of this??

The Alcatel OT-E256??

Any good or a reliability nightmare??

Pete

 

Don't get the wrong idea ................ plenty of people ring and text me!!

You really have an inability to think logically haven't you?? I've noticed your problem on other threads.........

Pete

 

If you never call anybody Pete your better off on Fresh network (t-mobil)
pay-as -go

HTH

 

What do you expect for less than 40quid? Mind you, I don't really care what it looks like, since I got I it's been dropped numerous times, been covered in baby sick (note the plastic cover stops it goig in between the buttons ) and out in the rain!

 

So your fan club, they ring and text you but you never ring or text them back. Bizzare.

 

Why do you want a colour screen if you have no camera? Surely thats a gimmick that a phone doesnt really need?

Cant wait for youre reply

 

The requirement for a good colour screen is because I can read the texts easier!!

Anyway, I have narrowed it down to the Sony Ericson J300i (NOT the Pink one!!)

Comments on the Sony??

It's £39:99

Pete

 

I now have the Sony Ericson ..................

Thanks all for your acvice and PMs!!

Pete

 

You're welcome old-timer!
