Need Urgent Help With Phone

Hi,
Looking for a certain phone. I don't mind which make really but nothing too bad... Looking to spend up to £70 on it. I would preferably like a capacitive touch screen phone which DOES NOT have wifi. I've seen the Sony Ericsson Yendo but looking for alternatives. I'm also open to other phones. Would prefer a touch screen but a keybad would be OK. A good camera would be nice but not too important. It also must have decent battery life!

Any1 have any ideas???

Thanks

    Try the T mobile vivacity, maybe it is a bit higher than you want at 90 quid on pay as you go. It has wi-fi but you can always turn it off. It is a good basic android smartphone that gives a good performance and it also looks a bit like an iPhone if that is any use to you

    Well need a second phone. Work policies don't allow me to have any wifi access at all so turning it off won't help. I already have a couple of tablets and devices so don't need it as a smartphone rather just for texting, calling and decent photos...

    How will they know? Also if the handset is for work, then they should purchase a suitable handset for you.
    The Yendo seems to fit your requirments though.
