k500 is scaled down k700. 12mb memory, mp3 tones, video rec/play. looks like a real good phone for the price, also has 3d java i think. just don't get the f500, as that is the same phone but voda branded, and like the k700 voda, can't use mp3's as tones.

see what greg is willing to let his 6610i go for, because there bloody mint as, if all else fails then moto v525 is a pretty decent fone. Bit bulky, but offers alot and you can pick them up for 150 new and the camera is decent as well

yea but its not 150 quid though is it plus you can get them cheaper than that anyways....eitherway, likes others said you gonna struggle abit for a new phone (unless you can get it on the cheap), and apart from the v525, then you could go 2nd hand mate - do a ebay, and have a butchers and see what you can come up with. Ive seen 6600's (few months old) go for 140+, and its the muts nuts as a phone

Nokia 7250i?

I got mine for £100 PAYG from the o2 shop in Oxford, it's got a built in camera, polyphonic ringtones, WAP, infrared etc. it's nothing special but it's a very lightweight phone and does what I want it to do.

May be worth considering, and it's well within your budget too?

7250i is a great phone. only thing that lets it down is the screen (only 4k colours)

camera is ok when on a pc

Yeah 4k colours is shit nowadays seeing as a lot of new phones out there are 65k.

I really like the design of it and keypad buttons etc.

For a cheap as chips phone like that, you can't go wrong!
