    I want to get a new phone I have a Nokia 3220 which will be a year old on the 25 Dec. I want to get Sony Ericsson W800i, Nokia 3250 or Nokia 3230 but they are very expensive. Which phone is going to be very popular this year well with Nokia anyway?

    don't bother going for a phone that's popular, that's just silly. popular phones aren't always the most functional or suited to your needs

    write down what you have to have and what you'd like to have but isn't necessary (things that come as a bonus).

    Well all I need is to be able to talk & send text messages but I want:
    *Good camera and video recorder
    *MP3 Player
    *Bluetooth
    *Java

    Moto V3x is a quality phone retailing at €379 rtg w/ Vodafone also the samsung zv10 is really good although it doesn't have external memory(it still comes with 50 mb internal) and is only 129 on rtg.
    W800i would be the best choice but are impossible to find unless you may want a 3G where the above options may suit

    k700-€129 on meteor payg with €100 credit
    has an mp3 player but no memory card so only about ten songs

    6230i-€289 on meteor payg with €100 credit
    best phone available for under 300 that i've seen.

    vodafone might have better ones but i dont consider them because i'd rather have a crap phone that pay their prices

    the walkman one is the same as the k750i, except for the cover and comes with a bigger card.

    You've linked to a scam. N80 for €11.50, sure. Only ever sold charm bracelets before? Account hijacked, obviously.
