Need some advice - I am the most disorganised person in the universe (and prone to exaggeration too) and I need a mobile phone.
Now, despite being a through-and-through geek, I just haven't got my head around mobile phones. I currently use my work (naughty I know) brick that uses the alias of a Nokia 6310i (I think...). The only thing I like about it is the battery life, and the fact that work still haven't cottoned on to the fact that I use it for personal calls.
After 6 months of maternity leave though, I really can't get away with it any longer and need to buy a phone of my own. I would like one that has some kind of an organiser on it as well, including calendar, to-do list, reminders etc as well as decent internet functionality, camera and mp3 player and good battery life. Most importantly, it has to be easy to use, so no crappy software, and adding a task to the to-do list needs to be significantly easier than doing the task itself (or what's the point of procrastination?
)
My feller is on T-mobile, and I think we have a spare pay as you go sim card hanging about , so that network would be ideal, but to be perfectly honest I'm not that fussed about network. I'm looking to spend a couple of hundred quid, so either a decent unlocked or PAYG phone, or a free phone with a tariff that isn't going to break the bank. I don't make that many calls or texts, so anything over about 50 texts / 200 minutes a month isn't really going to be used.
I did consider just getting an organiser thing without the phone, but although I don't make that many calls, I receive a fair few, so it's not really something I can do without.
Make your recommendations below the dotted line please! :wub:
