PAYG Mobile Wanted

Sylvester

I'm on the lookout for a new mobile phone, as my current one is very basic.

I've had a look about both online and in my town centre and i'm still unsure.

I would like a PAYG mobile with a camera that I am able to send my pictures to an e-mail address and at a cheap cost per e-mail.

What should I be looking for when I look around as none say I can send pics to my PC - is there a symbol I should be looking for?

Network is not a concern. Would prefer 02/Orange but not a major worry although would like some kind of 'free texts' deal with the sim if possible.

Any ideas would be appreciated - cheaper the better!

Thanks

Sylvester

Any of these match my requirements? I'm a technophobe!

The Motorola L6 sucks really, really bad.

Not sure about that SE one. I know it's a fair bit more expensive but I own a SE K800i (CPW have them for £69.95) and it's the best phone I've ever owned. Does everything you want and the photos it takes are really very good for a mobile phone camera - certainly comparable to some cheap point and shoot digital cameras.

To send picture messages as emails on PAYG you'd pay about 30p per message although if it's your email address you're sending them to - the K800i comes with a USB cable that's very easy to use to transfer photos to your PC...

Okay, we'll forget the Motorola one.

The K800i looks smart........can I justify £70 plus £10 top up......hmmmmm, possibly not, but it looks like a very good phone and in the long term...

Partner only gets charged 10p for e-mails on her 02 Nokia. Not sure how she wangled that one!

I'll be sending the photos to my e-mail address as it's just for taking photos of friends and pets!
