Default can someone recomend me a mobile please?

REALLY out of touch with mobiles i'm afraid and the old 7210 is literally falling apart, looking preferably for a nokia that i can get off ebay for £50-£80 that has most bells and whistles (camera, bluetooth if poss) and should give me a couple of years of good service (they get dropped alot)

is this an ok budget and can you guys throw out some recomendations please?

Agreed. Went from the N80 to the K810i and find the latter superior in every way.

I got a w810i £100 at argos, 0.15 minute payg.
it has a 512m memory card included, and my dvd player has a slot for one so i can see the pictures on my telly.
i always swore by my samsung but this lasts around a week on charge, in the advertisement , i always thought they add a few hours on but, mine was taken of charge on monday and its still at 88% battery life

I am about to sell my Nokia N73 on ebay for about £75. I would gladly sell it to you if you are interested. Never had any problems with it, its 1 year old, few scratches but the screen is spotless. Very good phone and only being upgraded because I get a free phone
I'll throw in the 1GB card and adapter that I bought.
Use google to look up the spec and pm me if interested and I'll send you photos of the condition

Nokia 6230i, as good as anything if you don't want the most upto date phone and should be loads on ebay.
Covers everything you need, I had one until recently

funnily enough this is top of the shopping list following a few auctions to get a good idea of price but looks like it shouldn't be over £60

cheers for the offer fantom but looking at the specs it would be wasted on me i'm afraid

thanks for the advice guys, gives me plenty to go on
