Tis the season to be jolly, and the tills did ringeth Falalalalal to the tune of a K800i !! Ho Ho Ho.  I have splashed out a bit this Christmas and bought my Father a shiny new K8ooi. Lucky Father !!! I did not want to pay a fortune buying it sim free so i got it on pay as you go for less than £100 which was a bargin. Now normally for myself i always get a smartphone ie the P1i so this is new terrority for me. What goddies can i get as a stocking filler for the K800i ? I really hope he will like this phone, cause i would have loved to get him a smartphone but am not gonna spend a rediculous price of £300 for it. Oh yes one final question, do SE still make those bluetooth toy cars and would they be compaitable ? I think my Father would love one of those too !!  |

the remote control cars are not compatible with the k800 as it uses a newer charging port, so you would need a k700i or similar to charge the car.
K700i > K750i > K810i (current phone)

Nice Xmas present , I've mine for more then one year now, still happy with it !
As for stocking fillers, does your dad like to take pictures with his phone ? Then a memory card is a must, don't know whether you've got one with the phone, it wasn't included here in NL, so I had to buy it myself.
Also some sort of case or a soft pouch, to protect the screen would be useful.

Yeah i realised as i had a look in the box that it did not come with a memory card or case which was rather annoying, so i'll get those when i go back out shopping. Had'nt realised it did video calling so i had to get a 3G sim card sorted out today as well, as my father's old sim card dates back to the stone age!!! *cough cough* . Maybe i should also buy him some mulled wine as i think he will be needing a swig of that when he finds out what i got him for chrimbo !!!  |

As to the phone he has now, it's an ancient Nokia, not quite sure of the model but it is an early model!!! Have just had a look at the Nokia web site and i think it is a Nokia 6610i, which i think is several years old. *ahem* So i think i've brought him into the 21st century !!! |

Hope your dad likes his new phone.
My mom and dad can't use these up to date fangled phones. My dad has a Nokia 2610 and my mom has an ancient Nokia 6100 cos she is too tight to buy a new phone, lol!

@abba - The Nokia 6100 is an all-time-fave of MINE coz it's so small and handy, a very reliable one too . . . just like with the old Nokia 6510 as well . . .
The K800i is a GOOD-buy at present coz it's sooo cheap, same as withthe P990i . . .
