    What phone?

    Okay, i want to get myself a PAYG mobile phone, and am limiting myself to £100... £125 max.

    What i really want is built in mp3 player, and support for expansion cards, SD or whatever.

    Was looking at the Nec E313 on eBay which can be had very cheap, supports expansion cards and mp3... any opinions on this?

    Also, if anyones selling something that might interest me...

    Thanks

    Edit: Whats the best network to be with at the moment too? Its pretty easy to get an 02 Sim...

    the nec E313 is a huuuuge brick of a phone, ignore it on ebay because you can pick it up in most high-street retailers for £45 including a £15 top-up voucher..

    However, 3 is apparently one of the worst networks at the moment, despite all the free calls offers..

    T-Mobile haven't been bad, and Orange weren't too bad before it..

    Vodafone are expensive, and I still don't like O2..

    As for phone, well, both Sony Ericsson and Nokia are having a phone refresh so you can get some quite nice models, I must admit that I prefer SE phones these days to Nokia..

    The K700i appears to be a nice bit of kit

    K700i looks a bit expensive, and im still leaning towards teh Nec e313, unless someone can suggest something else. If i get that id have more money to buy a bigger memory card for it too you see...

    The NEC e313 is HUGE.

    Don't get it, you look like your back in the 80s.
