Camera Phone for my Mum
Right... the forum decides...!
It is my Mum's birthday soon and I want to get her a new phone. She has to take a few pictures in her line of work (not of a pro quality, but good enough for someone to be able to use on a powerpoint presentation or something of the sort) so it has to have a fairly decent camera.
She currently has a Nokia of some sort which does not have a camera. She is quite disappointed to get rid of this, but really needs a phone with a camera on it. Given that she is a complete technophobe, I feel it is probably best to get her another Nokia because it will hopefully not take too much getting used to.
So, any suggestions? Happy to spend up to £100.
How about the Nokia X2-00?

Yes, if it is for work then her works should supply the equipment to do the job (unless she is SE) Depends how your Mum is with phones, my job requires photo's to be editied, Although they gave me a 12meg kodak, I use my HTC wildfire which does the trick and falls within your budget, another good thing is it has a gps head and I don't know what your mum does, but the geo tag feature is very handy.0

I would get her a cheapest new generation iPod (even used one) with WiFi, that can take pictures and SOOOOOO much more...like sending them attached to e-mail
I got it for my mom and she was no expert in technology, now she can not stop using it, even when she cooks, lol!
Good intentions pay off too~ Sorilla Reads0
