Yes V_R, we have had this discussion before, but finally i have bought a new mobile!
It's a Nokia C3-01 through o2 with a 4GB card, took a while to decide but now all done. Going to go onto a simplicity 12 months contract in the next few weeks.

Thanks to V_R, Sir Flopps & others for their advice on the subject.

Nokia's are great. The one I bought in 2007 is still going strong.

My last mobile lasted me 3.5 years & was used daily.
The new one is fun to get used to, is better on the battery power & even i'm getting used to it and i have only had it 24hours, last one took me about 1 year!!!

I last had a Nokia about 2003 I think, damn sight better than Sony is my only real memory.

I also made a final choice, tailored by budget rather than what I really wanted, cut my cloth according to my needs so to speak.

So I have an HTC Wildfire for 2 years now. If I was a real script kiddy who had to have the latest I might be a little upset. But I'm not, I like me new toy and if my fortunes change I'm sure I can negotiate a reasonable upgrade to a better model after a year with Virgin.

I do have to say, though, my new phone sure nuff look the business but it's bloody confusing, only figured out where the back button was yesterday, lol

And I've also only just realised the desktop overlaps the screen by about three quarters, which is why I can only see a quarter of my desktop pic.

Plus I can't figure out how to browse the net at all

I can connect onto my home wireless network no probs but then I can't connect to Virgin's home page.

Maybe it'll take me some time to figure out but to be honest up to this point I prefer my old prehistoric Samsung and that's the truth.

Everybody tells me it will come together and I'll apreciate my new technology. We shall see, we shall see.
