Smallest Tiny Mobile 100 chat and 200 text

Hope that you can help

I am looking at getting a very very small phone. I want it mainly for calls, but camera phone would be a bonus but not necessary.

I have seen the new to come Nokia6111(http://www.nokia.co.uk/nokia/0,,76644,00.html). Are they any other phones that are just as small or even smaller. I would like the phone to have a hole so that I can attach it to my purse and keys (yes I am a girly).

I am a 100 mins talk and 200 text kind of person. Do you know who would suit my needs best and give me a good tiny phone.

I have had a brief look and was scared of buy the deals where you pay the full month tarrif then have to go through the hassel of claiming back the 1/2 price rebate. I want a good deal without the hassel (don't we all).

Thanks

    What about one of the samsungs? i had the d500 which when closed was small enough for me or my cousin had the smaller e810 or if you want to go full girlie the e530 is pinkish and has bluetooth most samsungs come with a carry strap, or even the siemens cf62 if you like any of the above phone go look on e2save or the high street shops and see what network comes closest and cheapest to your needs.

    PS Just reread your post and i had a look in the link and they have the cf62 (virgin) but in pink for £49.99 or £39.99 with trade in so might be hard to get on contract unless you maybe call the network direct or i took some internet print offs of deals i was looking at and went into phones 4u who actually gave me the cashback there and then so i dont have to claim it back and can forget about it.
    The more i save the more i can spend:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Thanks for the information. I will be checking out the stores to see what they look and feel like in real life.

    First of all, if you really only want a small phone why not try and upgrade your current one - which I assume you have - with your current network, in which case you'd save yourself the hassle of looking specific tariffs up.

    If you wanna go contract, T-mobile have good deals of this sort of type right now - and ok, you'll have to get some money back via cashback but there you are - especially if you buy through places like thelink or carphonewarehouse...

    have u considered a pay as you go at all for this purpose? I mean o2, for instance, has these nice deals for people texting a lot, which you seem to be. plus with their cashback deals you really get a lot of cash back - is that of any interest to you?
