    Recommend me a phone for my girlfriend

    Hi peeps. Was hoping for some advice on what phone to get my girlfriend for christmas. It must :
    - work abroad - New Zealand(tri-band?)
    - be very small
    - not be silver!
    - be easy to use!
    - PAYG

    I would appreciate any help. She says she isn't that bothered about "any of that fancy rubbish" which I presume means a camera and the like!!

    Cheers
    Ben

    New Zealand only uses the 900Mhz band for GSM, so any phone you pick up in the UK will work.

    What does your gf prefer - flip or candy bar phones?

    I don't think she would mind either to be honest, as long as it looks quite funky!

    Do you have any kind of budget?.. As that would help in what to recommend, as there are many out there.

    Budget - under £100 I would say.

    I have read some reviews of the G50 and I have to say I'm not convinced she'd like it to be honest. Cheers anyway!
