We are going to collect tomorrow and my dad said I can get my ultimate phone if i want . I am shocked. He used all our birthdays as the winning numbers

Go Bono!!!!
With all that money what phone will you get? (maybe send me half the money )

Posted by Bonovox
Well no its my dads winnings but he said he is giving us £500 each

Posted by mriley
so you still getting c903?

Posted by Bonovox
No chance something way better than that

Posted by mriley
iPhone 3GS, i suppose that would use all the money though

Posted by Bonovox
No no not the iphone i have gone off that idea again. Maybe an Aino or Satio. But its nice for my dad he has had so many tries with the lottery and he has a few debts he will pay off but still will have loads left. And nice he is treating us

Posted by mriley
If i won that much i would take 6 weeks off work and do whatever i wanted

what a lucky family
congratz mr, bonno
be wise to choose your dream phone

Posted by Bonovox
Thanks guys. Just woke up and i looked at my dad and we both just laughed and said DID THAT REALLY HAPPEN LAST NIGHT. But yes it did. Well anyway yeah my dad is treating us all and yes i have had some shit things happen to me regarding mobiles. But i defo need a new one thats for sure as my c902 is now dead after dropping it just lifeless To be honest i am bored with it anyway the screen is just too small it just does not cut it anymore especially for photos and internet on my phone. I will get either Sony Ericsson Nokia or Samsung. Samsung are the most reliable phone makers on the market compared to most. Their phones dont seem to have as many problems. I would love one of their top of the range ones but not their cheap ones. But anyway its a weekend of celebration for my dad and the rest of the family. My mom will be smiling down on us wishing us well i know that she would be happy for dad. We are being careful though well my dad will be careful with his money. We are also being careful who we tell only close family and friends not half the street cos you know what people can be like. My dads numbers on last nights Daily Play were our birthdays 3 4 5 16 18 20 24 thats my 3 brothers my dad mom sister in laws birthdays and i forget the other one. Anyway gotta go now see ya speak soon

Posted by ceaser2008
Dont you ever think of other brand then sony. Samsung is not competible to all applications compare to sony.

WOW! Congrats to your dad and family mate. Spend it wisely. And save the rest.

Posted by Angello
Congrats mate!
I would wait for the X10, it's way better than Satio and Aino
cheerio

Posted by Bonovox
Hello people well my dad has put the money in his account now He gave me that £500 now I have bought a phone but I am not telling anyone what i have got yet until I am happy with it & its reliable. Thats my decision for now

Posted by Raiderski
amazing news for your dad, congrats

BTW let me guess... Satio?

Posted by Bonovox
Er....no but its so far a wonderful phone & I have made a decision based on what I know to be good & what a friend of mine has but remaining tight lipped till next week at least.

Posted by mriley
mmm, i wonder what it could be (i only have to glance at your profile pic)
But i didn't think you'd get a satio

Posted by Bonovox

Posted by mriley
Its either a Satio or an Aino
Or a c901?

Posted by goldenface
Brillitant news. I'm so envious - the most I have won is £1016 and I was over the moon winning that

You shall know once i am happy with it. Although some people may shocked with my choice

Posted by hihihans
It looks good as an avatar

Posted by mriley
well... it wont be any of the C series or W series
But i wonder which you are holding?




Posted by Bonovox
My dad & I went to the Post office with the winning ticket this morning. He was handed £500 in cash & was then given £29,500 in 3 cheques. Could still not believe it & I raced out when he gave me that money though I have not spent it all so its not too expensive the phone

Posted by mriley

Oh sod it I give in

Probably my cheaper 2nd phone No honestly its great & Samsung in my experience are more reliable than most. I prefer their more expensive phone like the Jet. I paid £199 for it. It has 5 mega pixels AMOLED screen @ 800x480 pixels 720x480 video record DivX playback GPS Wi Fi 2giga byte internal memory 3.5mm jack & the rest goes on. I have a friend with one he has had no problems with it & I fell in love with the phone its stunning. I shall get a as my second phone soon. I can sense hihi your dissapointment You know I still love but right now the Satio still too expensive & the Aino I don't like the low screen resolution & I am sick of sliders do not have much else out right now & you know I needed a new phone anyway. I am popping out for a bit now again will speak later chaps

Good stuff Congrats to your dad.

Nice phone as well. Is it good?

Posted by pmerryman
Congrats to your Dad Bonovox. Nice to hear a good story, and congrats on your new purchase.

Posted by Bonovox
Thanks. My dad has opened a savings account which has higher interest for his winnings with Barclays whom he was already with. He is happy relaxing now. His treat to himself next week when the cheques clear is a new CD player. His died on him & it cost him over £600 only lasted 6 years It was made by Roksan which is supposed to be a top British make. He is going for Marantz now. Reporting on the Samsung its a wonderful phone & such quality. It has a super fast processor too 800mhz I love it even if no one else does but i am not leaving ever just waiting for something new from them not costing the earth Today for the first time I had played with a Satio in an o2 store a live working one. Never played with one before & it was so slow

Posted by dizzybee
Yeahh I thought it was pretty slow. Supposed to be a top end phone as well.

Well I won't desert you :L

Photos look great. Is it a good allrounder? Like for texts and calls and stuff?

Posted by lukechris
It is I got one the week it came out, moved on now though

Posted by Bonovox
I like it though. i know you had problems with Vodafone version with the headphone socket but everything wors perfect on my sim free one. Menus texting general use is a dream to use. The in built browser is better than Opera. i am loving it

Posted by Bonovox
Its a good phone and much prefer it to the LG. The Arena was a mistake at least the Samsung works

Posted by dizzybee
Could have been the orange firmware with the arena. I still don't know what phone to get. May as well not bother for now.

Posted by Bonovox
Audio through my own headphones is fantastic. Its a very loud phone when it rings i have to turn it down. I have not charged up the battery since taking out the box its still going. Going to charge it over night. Not found any faults or problems yet and it seems stable. Anyway my dad is hanging up his paint brushes for a long time if not for good now. He is a painter and decorating man as a trade. We are all going on one big family holiday together the first together as a family since we were kids in the summer. Though my dad is not paying for all of it lol
