Motorola V3X on '3' for 99 euro

Hi,

First if all - they only post within the Republic so it's only a good offer if you can get it posted to a friend or family in the south.

But it's a pretty decent offer for anyone who's interested. About £60-£65 for a very decent phone .... with accessories.

    hi most of the family now have 3 phones and find the reception just the same as any other ,but we live in Belfast so cant give you true advise ,all I can say is we were in Newry last week and were still able to use the video calling ,also heard they are opening a 3 shop in Newry soon so coverage should be not that bad ,remember they are now in the south of Ireland to
