    Rather 'bizarrely' I use my mobile phone simply to make and receive calls and send texts - radical, eh!

    I've still got a Nokia 6310i kicking around if you fancy a swap

    The piccies from this post were taken on my mobile, and they're not too bad.
    My mobile is a Nokia 5800 MusicExpress - I rarely do anything other than make/receive calls and texts. The camera occasionally comes in useful, as does the radio/media player.

    Edit - had I realised the mobile you referred to was a Motorola I wouldn't have offered up the Nokia for a swap - I've hated every Motorola phone devices I've had

    I'm just about to head into town to get my annual phone upgrade... Aparently the iPhone 4 has a better camera so you can all look forward to slightly better photos from me

    Hi Chris,

    I've still got a Nokia 6310i kicking around if you fancy a swap
    Lol, thanks for the offer, but no. It's taken me long enough to get to know this phone (I always find Motorolas intuitive to use, and I like the styling), without starting again with something else!

    Weird isn't it? I got a razr a few years ago,first motorola I've had,and I hated it! I found it so counter intuitive to use I sold it when it was two days old.Give me Nokia or Samsung,or even better now,any Android phone.I'm due an upgrade and am trying to get an HTC desire.No t-mobile shop near me has any in stock.Could order online,but I couldn't get a more firm delivery date than "It'll be weeks".Guess I'll have to wait!

    Moving away from the DD's don't you fancy trying Luxman 'PD300' against the Techy?..'PD300' being one of the best sounding decks i ever had,Those MS lids are pure quality... In my view it sounded better than the 'SL110' i used to have at the same time...
