Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Looking for a phone

TPD · 2007-10-07 21:28:46

I want a beefy bastard of a thing - something that can withstand drops and accidents and the like. Not too fussed about quality, but I'd like a camera on it. Preferably a metal case. What I've got now is awful, slight pressure on the back and the phone dies.

What about this one: https://www.vodafone.ie/df/ProductDetails.shtml?handsetselected=5140I

Complete builders phone, my friend has it, her brother is an engineer so forever on building sites and abused the hell out of it - still perfect a year on and she's using it now.

VGA camera isn't great but if you want a durable phone you can't go too wrong with it.

I agree with the above- I always sold the 5140 series as builders phones, although I would point out no phone is garanteed smash proof.

Cheers, that looks like it'll do the job. I think a friend of mine had one a couple of years ago and lost it, he was always throwing it about the place.
