    You'd probably be looking at SE K500, Nokia 6610i, Samsung X460, Sagem My C5-2 on o2 pay as you go or Nokia Ngage QD sim free for that amount. What phone do you have at the moment?

    Well my friend, 100 benjamins in the simfree market would place you at the budget end things so don't expect many bell's and whistles. However I must recommend the Nokia 5140 on orange pay as you go for 150.00 then unlock it to enable use with your 02 sim. . If your not interested in features you may never use on your phone such as a ferenggie tooth sharpener a nokia 3200 or solid 1100 (30.00 on voda/tmob/fresh then unlock) would do the job nicely both with rrp's of 99.99 simfree. Hope that helps spud.

    Voda are doing half price line rental at the mo (Orange will price match)so you will get a 6230 free on the 30 (15 for first three months) a month tariff, then after 6 months change down to a 15 pcm tariff.

    Another nice budget Nokia is the 2600 for £74, colour screen and to my eyes stylish and ageless. www.nomatica.co.uk and www.pixmania.co.uk sell it. I own a T68i and whilst its been nice I wouldn't recommend buying an SE based on that platform as its slooow.

    The T68 was slow but they've moved on since then! The T610+ have all been pretty much instantaneous response.

    The reason I mentioned it is that the budget SEs seem to be based on the same platform.
