    ok it only got a resistive touchscreen, Android 1.6 and a 3.15 MP camera but as it is only €144 on meteor PAYG you can't really complain about it's lack of features. So anyone have one, if so what are your thoughts?

    It has brilliant specs for the money but i'd be wary of the resistive screen. Some are brilliant (Nokia N900 for example) and some are shockingly poor (LG Viewty for example).

    Still though, €144 PAYG for that kind of spec is pretty good.

    I was just looking at the Meteor website today and it caught my eye. I am shopping around for a mid level Android phone and I dont know what to go for. I like the look of HTC wildfire but I am not sold on the screen.

    i'm looking at the wildfire too, when is it out?

    Just got an Optimus today for the great price of free as a gift from meteor (work in store linked to meteor).

    So far I cant fault it even if i've only used it for a few hours, im highly impressed.

    Big step up from the 2330 I've had for the last 2 years.

    I just checked the Meteor website and they have just added the Sony Ericsson X10 mini which has been getting great reviews. Only 249e online which is a very decent price. I am on the fence in regard what to buy, I am going to have a try of them all firstly.

    https://store.meteor.ie/phones/sony_ericsson_x10_mini/#/in_all_phones

    In relation to the X10 mini I would have to say wait for the pro to become available (if it ever does here:rolleyes:) as it has generally being getting slightly better reviews.

    Just got an optimus - its a gift for someone else - but had a little play :). Imo the screen is very different from my own hero. Alot less smooth when dragging my finger across it. The hero feels like you just need to glide your finger across, where as this is more like gouging a trench across the screen. Might just be that its new though ?

    Otherwise looks nice and is responsive, plus you cant really argue when your getting a android phone for 150 quid - nothing else comes close.

    Anyone else have this phone?

    Any idea how to forward texts? or send texts to multiple people? It's simple on most phones but cant work it out on this!
