    Any reason why it needs to be Nokia? And on what network do you prefer? PAYG or contract?

    she has only just got used to the menu system on the nokia, wants to stay with t mobile and it would be pay as you go

    i think the nokia 1800 might do

    posted on Grabbit board by Lugh_Chronain the other day, if you get it with vodaphone you get it for 1p.
    Go through Topcashback or Quidco for £7-50 ish cashback.
    OOh just seen how much dearer it is with your preferred network, so probably not cheap at all.
  • No doubt your mum will have the T-Mobile sim from her old phone, if so then use this in the Nokia 1800 as it's unlocked. You could always put the Vodafone sim in your phone and use the credit that's on it.

    I guess she also needs a camera to take the pictures in the fist place.
