    Question Phone Upgrade

    Well I just got promoted and I want to treat myself to a new phone.

    I currently have a Motorola E365. It's not very good.

    In my office there seems to be a competition for the most annoying ring and message tones. I want to join in.

    I'm not fussy all I want is to be able to play any mp3 I have for the ring tone and message beep. And possibly assign different mp3 tunes to different people in my phone book.

    Could be contract or payg whatever works out cheapest over a year.

    Thanks

    Sony Ericsson K750i is a great phone.. It's available on Pay as you Go or Pay Monthly.. Most networks.. Plays MP3s, has Memory Stick Duo support so makes it easy for file management (such as your MP3s).

    But you don't have to take my word for it...

    My advice is to browse around websites like www.carphonewarehouse.com and www.phones4u.co.uk ... Nearly all of the phones have the capabilities you require, it's almost a matter of picking the one that looks the best!

    w800i is the best phone on the market at the moment, check out www.gsmarena.com for better reviews, than phones4u and carphone warehouse as they'll just try to sell you old stock if u use your phone alot i personally think contract is better than pasyg i used to pay £50 or £60 since goin on to contract i rarely ever pay more than £20

    I think the W810i also has a light sensor which adjusts the display brightness acording to ambient light levels. Means you save battery inside and you can see the screen outside

    look for a good price on that website Daveham has.
    Still some damn good deals on even expensive phones but don`t hold your breath waiting on the cashback tho` they do pay up eventually.
