They have more than Two you know :) They're quite big in Europe, especially their native Spain... only old people would buy them from me at Orange :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest furby Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Then got an Ericsson T68 which was great for about a month, then it broke. The replacement lasted a week. The next replacement lasted two hours, the next a day, the next didn't work when it was delivered. I was upgraded to a Sony Ericsson T68i which was great - for about three weeks. Then it broke, then the replacement broke, then the replacement broke..... Ha ha think I had the exact same experience. Literally went through 8 T68i's before giving up. Got my mpx200 and never looked back from having wm smartphones. On the Mototrola front, I think they have the worst software on their phones, can't put my finger on what it is exactly but it just stinks.

Anywhere you think an option might be.. its hidden somewhere else or named something completely different to what we've learned. As Mr Spock would put it.. they're illogical. My gf has the V3i and I can't make head nor tail of it - setting up MMS was an absolute nightmare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was never lucky/fashionable enough to have a v3, I had the V600, and it was okay for a while, then the camera started taking pixelated pictures and everyone looked like a lego man, and then the earpiece stopped working. I'm not even going to go into the horror that was uploading games to it! that said, I did get a free bluetooth headset with it. I couldn't believe they put the same camera in the V3 - I though it was supposed to be a "luxury" phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems "luxury" doesn't necessarily mean decent these days - I think the V3 and the Nokia 8800 are good indicators of this. People are much better off going for great phones like the N80, V3x, D600, SP5 etc - as not only are they packed with features, they look decent and are very easy to use. But unfortunately its all about how fashionable you look with it these days :) Mind you, most of us here are gadget freaks/geeks.. so we're bound to say that :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like value for money and I think the amount you pay for your phone should reflect what it can actually DO! Most people these days would be happy to be presented with a turd these days as long as it has been steam rollered and painted pink first!!!

Guest PatjM Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 My current one- a Blackberry 8820! The firm have moved us over to BB from windows-based toys! Yuk- they are so unfriendly. It hasnt even got a camera! I wouldnt mind, but one of the basic things about a mobile phone must be that it has a good radio- these dont- they are very deaf. Ok, they look good when you can play with them on the tube with all the other wazzers...but please, give me back my SPVM5000 any day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
