In my opinion Mobile Phones are like cars, the moment you take them out of the shop they become outdated!!!!!
I have an Alcatel which would be about 3 years old, is a prepay, does text messages and alot of other things that I haven't learnt about and haven't a clue about. A friend of mine got one just recently in Cash Converters, to replace one she had stolen.
I think it depends what you want your mobile to do for you Cath. Some of them nearly need a uni degree to operate them............maybe its just me.............a real dummy with new technology. Perhaps a little fearful of unfamiliar territory too.
I'm sorry I cant be of more help.

I've been through a few phones in my time and I still think Nokia makes the easiest to use and the most durable phones.
I'm not a fan of the Samsung I have at the moment, its had so many things wrong with it (its one of those ones you open, and the front screen goes blank quite often and people say I sound like I'm down a well when I'm talking to them) and definately not as user friendly as the Nokia I had before.
Hope thats some help!

I too have a nokia. Telecom Prepay. Mates rates plan of 49c a min calling and $10 txting.
and mum has too hyndai cdma flip phones on telecom mates rates and $10 txt.
She has found that too get the best value from phones you've got to keep reviewing plans and deals as they are constantly changing and bringing out something that may suit your purposes for.

Hi Cath
Noel Lemming have a good deal at the moment. Today my daughter bought a Nokia 2280 for $150.00 and with that she also got double movie pass, $40 with of phone cards and $80.00 accessory pack. She is pretty happy with her purchase and it's a great little phone. I use to have a Nokia but now have an Alcatel, but I look forward to the day when I can upgrade back to Nokia, as mentioned previously, very user-friendly.
Happy shopping!
Regards

As a Telecomunications Engineer who does not work for any Cellular operator in NZ but does understand the systems, select GSM (Vodaphone everytime). The technology is much better designed and available in more countries.
As for phones, well I have to agree, Nokia seem to have the best interface software and have never given me any problems.
Based on your selection but rejection of the 3120, I guess you are looking for a basic handset. The Nokia 1100 will set you back $179 (or less if discounted) and of course you need to pay the $50 for a prepay card, and dont forget that you get $20 call credit with that card.
