Anyone got one? Tesco are doing £50 for the handset and £20 a month for 250 minutes talking, 'unlimited' texts and 1GB mobile web... sounds alright to me, but it looks as though there are a couple of niggles. The headphone socket is on the side of the phone and it doesnt have 3G. If you've ever had one, were these a right pain in the arse or manageable? Contract is 12 months.

My mate got one cheap a few months ago, and when he sees my phone he always wishes he'd gotten something with Android.

The contract itself sounds OK, but if you've no 3G you're never going to use 1GB anyway.

I have a blackberry bold 9700 and its fantastic. I wouldn't have it without 3G though as its slow as hell. Infact im moving networks because of it.

Have a look around, I think there are some much better deals on than that. The phone is a bit dated anyways.
