    Yesterday sounds like a brilliant day...glad to hear you got some mobile fruit. ;)

    10p socks was a good bargain, too. :)

    And YET more savings: if I were your mortgage, I would be seriously scared! ;)

    Its an Android Type phone. Touch screen.....a bit like iPhone but without all the [EMAIL="!!!!"]!!!![/EMAIL] and the constant need to download updates that dont work and screw up you PC after hogging it for hours and hours and hours.

    I never used to get any virus's until DD started updating her iPhone. Recently had to have the whole PC reloaded by our IT Dept ( thank God for them, saved me a fortune!) who collectively groaned when iPhone was mentioned....they are banned from being attached to any IT at work.....and then recommended that I have Microsoft Security Suite installed to prevent a repeat. They did it for me.

    HTC is smooth running, quick and very clear. the only drawback is that it can use the battery up ( well, all android phones do) so its rec to have a charger handy. Still, I get 12 hours a day easily when using just for phone and txt, with a good 8 hours if using satnav and email/ internet. I know that if you have your Social Networking sites all synchronised then it will kill the battery a lot quicker....but I'm not that social:D
