Title: Mobiles
Post by: JandS on July 21, 2009, 03:23:33 pm

Went to Vodafone shop as it was time to upgrade my phone.
The one I wanted wasn't on the free upgrade list and I was told
that on my contract it would be £125.
Let me think about it I said.
Pub that night mentioned it to a friend of mine who has the phone
I want and he said try online it will be cheaper.
Got it next day for the princely sum of £21 and some pence.
What's all that about??

Just bought a Samsung Solid Extreme, has a loud ring tone for when the machine is on, noise cancellation for when talking in a noisy environment, dirt proof, water proof if you like talking underwater, shock proof. My phone has to withstand everything that I can throw at it.

I like the Samsung with the rubberised cover which allows you to operate it with wet hands......always use a bluetooth earphone when driving or working so I don't miss any calls
