Go on, do tell :D

I'll start the ball rolling.....

For my little man (13 going on 14) who has a 18-month Samsung D900 I am thinking about gettting him something newer. He's on a 30-day contract with Vodafone and behaved well with it. I'm thinking a Sony Ericsson K800i Cybershot from Vodafone for £90.

Not sure exactly , but the bread knife does need a new phone (she is using my N80 at the moment )
Ideally , it needs to be pink (or equally girly ) & 3G / FFC , (so I can Videocall my little boy from work )
Haven't got a clue yet , but I'm sure I'll find something !

How's about this, miffed? http://www.nokia.co.uk/link?cid=PLAIN_TEXT_29687

Certainly not a mans Nokia, by any stretch of the imagination! Well... maybe by your imagination! *runs*

Thats the one my ball and chain bought for herself when she came over from the dark side (O2) to Vodafone. She loves it to bits and it fits Miffed's criteria for Videocall and all that stuff. Its also very robust in the old dear's handbag (a veritable TARDIS by even Women's standards) surviving the worst that she can do to it. Battery life is very respectable - but I have got her well trained to charge it overnight, not that she always does it and then the handset is very forgiving and sees her through another day. Nice little 3G handset, that is. :)

Obviously mine has a Girly Pink charm and a lil Sock i put it in , but seriously get a sock for it, oh and something to wipe the make up off it lol

I'm thinking more and more about an iPod Touch, either for Christmas or before then. I really don't know how much I'd use one, but I keep drifting around to the idea. I mostly like the idea of being able to use iTunes when I'm out and about, as that's normally when I hear songs and decide that I want them (before forgetting by the time I get home).

One of the nice things about iTunes on the iPod Touch (and the iPhone for that matter) is that you can preview the tracks too - about 30-seconds worth of the track is beamed down to you to listen before you commit. Its a superb idea and I can already feel my iTunes credit card twitching in my pocket .... They may turn me onto buying music this way yet .... I've resisted for years, much preferring to nip down BW to HMV/Virgin etc..
