When i first got my p800 it was for showing off etc, then the p900, but when i broke it i didnt miss all the features to be honest, i've got a nokia basic thing at the moment which really does all i need these days - having said that, i've got a p990 earmarked as soon as they come out so i can be all trendy again

My W800i wasn't that expensive as i got it on upgrade on Orange for £29.99. I use it mainly for (the most activity is first):
* Text messing
* Phone calls
* Alarm
* Organiser - calander, notes, tasks
* GPRS - wap/internet
* Camera - photos
* Entertainment - radio, MP3's, videos, games
* MMS / video

3. camera
4. games, fun and extras

nowadays:

1: making calls!
Immediately followed by: playing games when waiting or on the train or something similar


distant third: receiving texts


even further distant fourth: browse the yellow pages (at least when i had no internet I did)


fifth: take pictures of things I need to photograph on the spot (like when the #$%#@%$^$!!! natives here smashed my car window and I found the car emptied at midnight in the snow.... pictures for insurance claims and such)


Oh yeah.... and my phone doubles as an alarmclock every day and as a torch quite frequently as well these days


Still it has plenty of stuff i never use, such as the mediaplayer, so next time around I may focus on trying to get a slightly less full and hopefully slightly more dedicated to certain functions type of phone.... if they ever build one I think I would need (or want.... more likely want actually )
