    I'll move your thread to the 'Mobile Phones' board.

    Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this in these circumstances: I’ve asked Board Guides to move threads if they’ll receive a better response elsewhere(please see this rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board, where it should get more replies. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

    i would highly recommend the k750i. its got a brilliant autofocus camera and good multimedia capability. the memory cards for this are dirt cheap now (play have a 2gb mem card for £17 for the k750i).

  • Get a new one off ebay!

    What kind are you looking for and how much do you want to spend?
  • My phone got wet like this but someone suggested I pull it apart and put it to dry on the radiator(on coolish) . Found out it started to work after a few days:T

    preferably under 100.
    (a free one would be great)

    not really sure what phone to get.
    i had/have a nokia 6230i

    don't like flip phones.
    like the look of the LG chocolate but have been told it's not that great.
    don't want a samasung.

    have had a look on ebay, bit worried sending all that money
