Straigt up, the truth....

Just got a T-Mobile G7050 Today!!! My old nokia 3310 was well past it.

This one has all the whistles and bells.

Photo, wap, voice tags (very handy) It's superb!

I'm gonna have some fun withg this one! And the best of it is it only cost me £10 for a new sim card...my wife got it as an upgrade, kept her old (not very) one and gave me this!!!!!!!

*is happy* biggrin.gif

Update on last posting.....

Too many bloody features! having a hell of a job sorting it all out. The instruction manual is longer than War and Peace!

And the resolution on the pictures is a bit behind the times too.

still a nice phone, but could be better.

The newer phones tend to have thick user manuals as they have too many new features. tongue.gif

New phones are no good!
A good old brick phone is what you want! Because:-
1. No one will mug you for it.
2. And if they do try? you can always hit them with it! biggrin.gif

Phone throwing in Finland

Last Modified: 30 Aug 2006

Competitors have gathered in Finland to take part in a bizarre new sport.

Men, women and children of all ages congregated to see who could chuck their phones the furthest.

Contestants lined up close to the Russian border to fling, throw, chuck and heave their defunct mobile phones as far as they can.


The founder of the competition, Christine Lund, said it was a great way to vent anger at mobiles which often lose their signal or run out of credit at just the wrong moment.

But not only that, it is a great way for families to indulge in a sporting activity that's also good fun.

The winning throw came in at a whopping 89 metres.

Hi

I have a motorola V3 probably the best phone i've had now it's time for an upgrade but can't seem to find a better phone.

I have been looking at getting another V3 may be the V3i but on a 12 month free deal look at this site

www.HQ_was_here.co.uk

they have a lot of good phones on 12 month free contracts.
(you get the whole 12 months rental back via cash back) my brother bought from here and has had no problems with the phone or receiving his cash back.

Hope this helps

Not totally off topic but..

My mum always keeps her phone on even when she's asleep, same as me, and at 3am this morning her phone started ringing. She answered it and got a man (who's voice she didnt recognise) talking to her and couldnt understand him so she hung up. It rang again and my brother heard and went into her room. She told him what happened and he answered this time.

An american man spoke saying "Would you like to talk dirty to me?"
My brother - "No thank you. How did you get this number?"
Weirdo - "I made the number up out of the top of my head"

I bought one last month from Phones4U in Harrogate on a T-Mobile PAYG. So far I really like it and the main reason I got this phone was to replace my old Philips Savvy bought in 2001. I wanted a slim phone that was light because my pockets always contain other stuff, such as my pocket pc, wallet, various bunches of keys, loose change, batteries and other small items. My pocket pc has a camera so I wasn't bothered about the phone having one, although having tried it on the L6 I would say it is adequate, with fairly natural colours but over exposed results. I didn't need an mp3 player as my ppc can do this better than any iPod or phone, so the phone's meagre 10MB isn't an issue for me. Sound quality from the phone is loud, clear and surprisingly good. The screen is crisp and clear with good colour, so I am not sure why people say it has a poor one, although compared with my pocket pc it is poor but that is a slightly unfair comparison.

Navigating around the phone's menus and settings is pretty simple, even for a n00b like myself who has only ever owned one other phone prior to this. Some say the Motorola phones have confusing menus but I find them pretty logical and most of what you are looking for is where it should be.

One of the main features I wanted was BlueTooth so I could give my pocket pc internet access when out and about. Once I have bought a BlueTooth expansion card for my ppc, I will try this out.

I have also installed and used the Motorola Phone Tools software with the L6, and this really does make customising and backing up the phone a real breeze....enjoyable infact!

So far so good then but because I am a very low usage phone person, I cannot really comment much on call quality, signal coverage/reception or battery life etc. From what I have seen so far though I expect this to be of a good standard.

Well here I am again to report back on the things I am more clear about after owning it a while.

I upgraded my Pocket PC PDA to have BlueTooth connectivity and I successfully paired and bonded with the Motorola L6 phone. I connect to the internet via GPRS and luckily for me my T-Mobile provider happens to be the cheapest for web access. Browsing the web is pretty quick once you have setup your PDA browser, to view everything via the Skweezer web portal http://www.skweezer.net/

Call quality, signal coverage/reception and battery life are all excellent with nothing to complain about at all. The only thing I could moan about is the size of the keypad but I knew this before I bought it, plus I tend to send SMS messages from either my desktop PC or PDA with portable wireless keyboard.

So all in all a superb phone with everything I would need. I made the right choice and I would at this moment in time buy another one, or one like it within the range.
