May I be the first to offer seasonal best wishes to all here.

Well you get what you pay for I suppose.

 

[Steve]

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? Does it take normal pictures too?

 

[securespark]

Yep. See "Outside Socket!" in Electrics....

But it also has crazy "effects", including "sepia"... Can't wait!

the last time i used these "crazy effects" on my phone was . . . . erm . . . well . . . oh i remember, the first day i got it!

Such effects cost the manufacturer next to nowt, but provide "wow" factor for naive people who then think they've got a really fab device - until someone comes along with fullscreen photos from their Sony Ericsson K750i

Hey, it's not bad for 20 quid brand new, unlocked.....

or even the K800i (polishes finger nails on lapel)

I've got an N73. Bloody good photo's, possibly the best phone I've ever owned. (Although I'm too much of a wimp to move away from Nokia, I'd never work out how to use a Sony or Motorola)

I might go for one of those phones, just for the 3.2 megapixel camera.
I keep leaving the brochure laying around in case anyone is short of ideas for christmas pressies.

Sony ericsson phones are a very good phone to use, IMO. logical controls and easy to navigate. The K750i however, is starting to let me down - the joystick seems to navigate where it wants to and is driving me mad, especially in texts when selecting what word i want.

RichardP, my next phone will be a K800i (if thats the one with the proper camera flash and 3.2mp camera)

I'm a born & bred Nokia fan, and I struggle with anything else, too!!

I reckon I must have the worst phone, it's a Nokia something or other, it has a plain black and grey LCD screen, no camera, no radio, no MP3 player, no games or extras at all, oh, and when someone phones me I can't hear what they're saying either I suppose I should change it, but I must be the most ungadgety person in the world, I reckon it comes from years of farting around with IT gadgets and gizmos.

Also, on this vein, I have to confess that I have never owned a camera in my life, or indeed a watch. I'm odd

 

[Thermo]

thats not a phone thats your alarm clock ringing, stop trying to answer it!

 

[Richardp]

Eddie
no watch? me either, I can't bear the feeling of them on my wrist, the only time its a problem is when you want to know the time,
and when your abroad these guys selling watches spot you from a mile off and make a bee line for you, I got so fed up once that I drew one on my wrist, next time I was accosted I showed him my watch and walked on looking back, he looked confused and a bit frightened.

 

[2scoops0406]

I never understand why everyone always seems to want to know the time? Anyhow, not having a watch seems to allow me to know roughly, to within quarter of an hour, what the time is anyway.
