Shame about the frigging ringtones.......they are shit :mad:
this phone has everything :
Camera
Voice recorder
Video
Torch
Radio
Sound lever thing
Compass
Timer
Stopwatch
Fitness coach
etc etc
so with all the time and effort put into providing a decent phone, why did they not give decent ringtones?
oops....might help if I show you the phone here

So that Club Nokia can make more money by people having to purchase decent ringtones;)

Took my hubby 2 mins to get his off, he didnt have a stiffy one
Lisa Id disagree, its a lovely phone. Hubbys is the blue one, if i remember rightly the link is a red one ? the feel to the phone is very nice, cant explain but it just feels nice.
Most of the time I speak face to face to people, but I use my mobile phone to contact people so I can meet up with them face to face. Games and things are just fun to waste time when I'm bored, and text messaging is easier than ringing up and saying "come round mine at 4, bye".
They're more convenient to the vast majority of the population, perhaps?
Nokia is really the worst crap you could get (sorry 'bout that).
The only thing that's "okay" about them is that they're quite hard to break (but I would try nevertheless
and still, I'd stop spening money/time on ringtones or stuff like that! it really isn't important in life that you can impress the peer-pressure-driven people around you with the newest, crap-sounding, chart-hit-ripoff-ringtone.
and if you're still despereate for sounds then at least make them yourself (same as for themes).
no offense, that's just my 2 cents...
so true.
things i look for in a phone - makes calls. sends texts. vibrating alert so i can have it silent, or know it's ringing when i have headphones on. the end.
why it has to be in colour, or take photos, or make the tea, i have no idea.
However at the same time, every function on my phone is taken advantage of. I can upload anything from my phone onto my computer and vica versa. Having loads of pictures on stuff on my comp' is useful, for me. I put music on my phone to listen to. More convenient than carrying a minidisk around with me. There are no games, but if I wanted any I could put them on using the USB cable. I use the WAP to find out information and if I'm generally bored shitless - Like the other day when I was stuck in crazy traffic and went onto the Maddox website.
I'd happily buy a phone that is as useful to me as the one I've got now.
No the pop chart hit is not necessary but why not?? Especially with the newer ones where you can download full songs (not ringtones) and them set them as a ringtone, i'd much prefer that than the standard monophonic cheesy shit that come standard on a mobile.
I know I have about 150 numbers in my phone, I think it can hold about 500 but I only use my for personal reasons, I use it as my phonebook. That is like saying what is the point of having a phonebook next to the house phone which has 50pages in it when if all the numbers were together they would fit on 1-page. Also what about people who use them for business reasons, If i used my mobile for my work I would have thousands of contacts in it.
No it's not necessary but it's a hell of a lot easier because you are able to work out whether it's your phone ringing or someone elses when in a packed place.
People's opinions differ. You can't see the plus side of some of the new technology, others can. You don't see the point of texting, i do. Sometimes it's fun when something pops into your head and makes you laugh, to be able to quickly type in a little message and send to a mate. Like i'm going to bloody ring her up just to say "hey can you remember last night what that bloke said" or something like that.

For starters we don't pay extra for text services, it's all included.
Secondly, we don't pay for the phones, they come included with the contract you sign up for, then each year you pay a small fraction of the phone's worth for a new one.
If we had to pay £250 every time we wanted a new one I'm sure we'd have the same skeptical outlook on the entire thing as you, but we don't.
Besides, you're just jealous because we get all the good stuff first.
I remember when we had our first colour phones coming out the Yanks were still stuck with this

Similar to the headline phone on this topic, but without the radio.
