    Just wondering if anybody has this phone and if so would you recommend it, how is it for internet (like using boards, for example!) and what is the text/mms memory like? Thanks if anyone has this and knows the answers! :)

    Have one. Internet is wap only. Boards is extremely slow on it. I wouldn't waste my time tbh.

    Are you thinking of the 5530 instead of the 5230. They are nearly the same, expect the 5530 is not a 3G handset

    I am not technically minded in the slightest, but I am pretty certain it does not have wifi capabilities on it.

    Another problem I have is the memory is awful for photos and videos. I have installed very few apps to it, yet I can take about 20 secs of video.

    Rather than start a new thread, I have gotten used to this phone. Easy enough to use. One thing though, and this may seem a trifle unneccessary, but why does it not have graphic smiley faces? Kind of annoys me when I receive them as I have no idea what they mean in many cases. Is there an app to download or anything to make them work?
