I like this thread. I can see all of the young ones on here who probably eat just because they're hungry and drink to get pissed. Phones are not just about what is the latest thing. There are classics and art in everything. I for example eat just to spend time with friends and enjoy good food somtimes. I may not even be particularly hungry. I can hear all of the young uns saying 'What's the point in that?' already.

This was originaly known as the "builders phone" and I know at least three that will rush out to buy this ASAP, Shame the kiddies cant apreciate a tool built to do a specific job, if it doesnt fit the latest "cool profile" its automaticaly a POS a classic example of a little knowledge being a dangerous thing!!!!!
