I don't know what a quid is, besides the fact that it rhymes with squid, but I'd give a whole of 'em for one of these phones. I wan't one. It really isn't the best phone out there, but it's one of the better nokias out at the moment and it looks pretty cool.

Beats my stupid N81. My phone is possessed. It types smses by itself and does weird things like trying to unclock the keypad etc. And every now and then, my microphone stops working so nobody can hear me when I speak. (But I think that's my fault, I spilt tahini all over my phone...dont ask.)

That's not a good deal. You can get better deals for the Hero! Upgrade deals usually suck. Just port over to another network.

To be fair, my phone has been awesome for me...I just havent treated it well. But its old now. Like super old. I took it to my local Arab phone repairs/ tabacconist to get it fixed, lol, he told me it wasnt worth it and didnt fix it. He tried to make me do a trade in though....geez he was dodgy. He wanted me to put like AU$500 ontop of my N81 for a stupid samsung....
 
Here, it's about points that phone company gives away each time we charge our cell phones. I had the N60 but felt like having an iphone. I bought it but wasn't satisfied with it since I like to exchange lots of stuff with it. Now, I'm having the Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic. I really do like it. Concerning the batteries, one should buy the original ones.

the right person i was looking for! sister tell me more about the battery life !!!


how does the 5800 compare to the Iphone?
 
Well, the pics and video on the iphone are much better. However, when you've got an iphone, it's like you must have buddies to share stuff with must have iphone too. I mean, you can't exchange files such as mp3 or vids with friends who don't have iphone. To upgrade it, you need to pay extra money for everything. I sold it and bought the Nokia 5800. When you buy a battery made in China (pretty cheap), you listen to some mp3 files and it's already going dead. Try to find batteries from hungary. They are much better. I truly like my cellphone.
 
@ abdullahi: iphone sucks. Nokia 5800 has resistive touch screen and people dont like it. Resistive touchscreen, however, is more accurate, work in ALL kinds of weathers, you can use it with gloves on. Try doing that with the crappy capacitative touch screen on iphone. Nokia 5800 is not the best touchscreen phone that Nokia has built but it surely is the best touchscreen bang for the buck. If you want to go higher specs, look into Nokia N900. Just no iphone.

Is it possible for you to pay the cancellation fee and then just start over once your service is terminated?

Then you would be considered a new customer and you could get the phone you want for free, right?

Personally Bro i found 3 Network to be crap there are much better service providers which can give you a better deal, but anyway hope they do give you a better fone, all the best Bro
 
they're ripping you off bro with that upgrade option espec with that phone, how long is the contract and on what tariff?

If theres someone else in your family on three with high usage try and get them to upgrade with the phone you want then just swap phones.
