I'm trying to sort out my wife's Xmas prezzy this year before December the 24th.
She is 68 amd I'm 69, our knowledge of mobiles could be written in upper-case on a grain of rice and still leave room the Magna Carta, again in upper-case.
We each have, at the moment, a basic Nokia 2630, calls and texts in and out, and to be honest that is really all we need.
Buying prezzies for each other at our age is extremely difficult, our son has a Blackberry and I've seen her gazing at it with envy.
Also the "girls" at the WI tend to have more up to date phones.
Question.....what the heck, out of all that is available, should I get, it seems like a mine field. :shrug:
Requirements...
Blackberry......I think
Orange network, we are with them now, I'd prefer to stick with them for simplicity.
Pay as you go.
Internet access would be nice if possible, but not if it's going to cost an-arm-and-a-leg.
Question.....Can you log into your browser on a mobile, surf the net and send emails as you woud at home with a PC, and is it expensive £'s/min.
Another question....Is it worth buying it now or waiting till nearer Xmas.
Also how does one switch from the old mobile to the new one, is it just a case of switching the SIM card over.
No doubt there are 101 answers to my problem, any advice greatly received.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp....!
