    i would recommend the sony ericsson k750i. slighlty out of budget at about £70-£80. woolworths have a good deal on o2 (i think) where you get a free 512mb memory card with it.

    you can get it on vodafone for £65 from play here

    I am not sure of the best or the cheapest but phones4u have a few under the £50 mark

    The virgin lobster 700tv gives you a great spec for £50 and if you ring and ask if they have any refurb stock you just might get it a bit cheaper (the full price one comes with 200 free mins)
  • I would agree - the Sony K750i takes some beating - excellent phone, excellent camera, excellent music player. Can beat the price on Play by a tenner - brings it to £55ish.

    Nokia 6111s are coming down in price.

    IIRC the Pink was around £69 but the normal should be a bit cheaper.

    1mp cameral
    Bluetooth
    Infrared

    Can't fault it for that money.

    If you buy it, or any other PAYG from Dialaphone you're likely to get it unlocked to any network. DD2 got her phone from there at Christmas and it arrived unlocked. she can use T Mobile, O2 or Vodafone cards in there. We tried them all.

    I don't know if anyone is still doing the Motorola V3. IIRC that has come right down in price.

    £2 savings jar - now at £3.42:rotfl:
