Buying a new phone.
Not keen on touchscreens, but after a trip to the Metrocentre earlier, it seems I don't have much choice!
I am sticking with my payg sim and will be buying phone with cold, hard cash.
Need internet (rules out the 99p Nokia that one shop had), the ability to open word/excel document and emails (push or webmail).
Anything else, not too fussed about.
I have apple products (ipad and ipod) and have a Windows 8 laptop - so syncing/compatibility isn't an issue.
Not prepared to pay hundreds for something that is probably only going to last a couple of years either.
Any advice?
Currently have a Nokia e5 that has been great, but is on its last legs.
I'd suggest a BlackBerry - whichever one takes your fancy, there's so many to choose from.
They're nothing special, but perfect for the things which you've said above.
Anything which you don't get on the BlackBerry, you'd be able to get on the iPod/iPad.
