Most of my family members are on t-mobile and few people i've known to have been on 3 have said its rubbish. Only links I've been able to find to £99 are pink
on tesco its 109.99 (black) on vodafone.edit: D900i doesnt have video capture just playback.... considering the amount its costs i'd expect more internal memory to be honesy. |

I read somewhere it was only about half of that amount of memory.
I think it was just over a year ago they were with three. |

If you are still looking to replace you phone then have you considered the Sony SGH-E590. It's got a 3.2 megapixel camera, music player, radio and bluetooth and it's not very expensive: http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_e590-review-160.php |

The D500 in classic black is cheap as chips @£49.99
http://www.dialaphone.co.uk/en1/payg...PO207093A&trf= if you can compromise on a few things like the camera quality and expandable memory or the d900i @ £114.95 http://www.dialaphone.co.uk/en1/payg...pvf07083a&trf= W810i @ £99.95 http://www.dialaphone.co.uk/en1/payg...pvf07071g&trf= |

Only downside is battery drains quickly if using radio / walkman (but that's only to be expected). |

I have a W810i. It's an excellent phone, with a very good RDS Radio, Walkman and Ok camera. Call wise reception is very good with good voice clarity. The phone also feels solid and well built.

Features I would like:[LIST][*]Bluetooth[*]2 megapixel camera[*]video recording[*]MP3 ringtones[*]GPRS[*]speakerphone[*]music player would be cool[/LIST] Any suggestions? It runs windows mobile 6, so it has windows media player, internet explorer and windows live messenger. 128MB of storage built in, plus a microsd memory card slot (I got a 1GB microsd card for £8). Its also fairly powerfull device, it has a Intel 416MHz processor so can play divx/xvid or other odd video files you download off the internet, or even play DRM'd songs purchased from the itunes music store (with the right software). and oh, did I mention it has builtin 54G WiFi aswell ?Take a look at it here: http://www.my-xda.com/alreadyHaveGraphite.html Certainly for £100 it makes the sony ericssons look crap value for money. Unfortunately you can only get them new on a £25 /month contract from 02. So ebay is the only place you can buy one to use on pay as you go packages. -Chris |
