Just downloaded locale which should help a lot by turning things on and off depending on where i am.

Can you recommend any other android apps?

HandCent is pretty good if you want to jazz up your messages. Can customize the layout to how you like it. Taskiller is good for closing down apps and I've started using Twidroid for my Twitter activities. Big improvement on the HTC Twitter app that comes with the phone.

A friend at work has just got the Nokia X6, anyone else got one? found any problems?

Re: Mobile Phones : Fri Apr 09, 2010 9:30 pm  

Looking at two Nokia's for upgrade, the 6700 or the E71. I have had the 6300 previously and the 6700 seems like an updated version of this.

Anyone had any experiences?

I have a month before i can upgrade my phone and i'm really struggling to find one i like. Each phone i find that i like there seems to be problems with them in the reviews

Help!!

(looking for a QWERTY keyboard, not too big, push email would be nice but not essential and no touchscreen unless it has big numbers (fat fingers syndrome ))

Oh and No iphones either, can't stand them!

Look at the E71 I have mentioned above. Looks decent to me.

Re: Mobile Phones : Mon Apr 12, 2010 1:18 pm  

I got the E71 on Saturday and so far I am very impressed.

Just one annoyance is that the video clips in the gallery do not show thumbnails of the actual video filmed, it just shows a grey box.

I cant work out why and cant find anything on line as to why.

Has anyone got one and know the answer?

Not a big fan of touch screens but didn’t know how I would fair with the small keypad as im all fingers and thumbs. But its truly amazing.

Even better when only a week ago, 02 were going to charge me £100 for the handset to go on there 300 tariff at £25per month plus the additional £7.50 per month internet bolt on.

A week later I get’s the handset for free for the same tariff plus £180 credit to cover the cost of the internet bolt on.
Plus 25% off the Blackberry Bluetooth visor kit.

Recently renewewd my contract with o2. Looked at HTC then somehow settled for a Samsung Galaxy. Piece of rubbish so sent it back and got an 8900.

Great piece of kit that beats anything I've had so far.

Just ordered a HTC Desire, due tomorrow, £10 per month, 100mins, 100 texts, unlimited internet, free landline calls and paid £134 (£30 knocked off when I asked for a bit of dizzy)for the phone. Works out at £15 a month for the length of the 24 month contract if you add in the cost of the phone. Actually works out £5 cheaper than the cheapest PAYG deal I've seen.

You will love the phone (Except for the battery life)
