I just got one not too long ago and it's freakin awesome :)

Had to replace a crappy "I'm pretending to be an iPhone for a tenth of the price, but I'm just a fail phone" phone. Although, I must say that the tune playing in the background of the games is fun for pissing people off around ya!! I suppose at least I've found ONE good use for it ;)

Still, my sister managed to lose her phone so think it'd be cool for her to help out with the geocaching! :)

Ciao!
Eva :)

My partner is currently using a Sony Ericsson dumb phone and is jealous of my Samsung Galaxy S, however she doesn't want to stop having hardware buttons for typing so the Milestone would be the ideal phone for her!

All comments are my own opinion, and not that of my employer unless explicitly stated.

I've got a nokia 1101 that's had all the bits of it replaced at least once, and now has a keypad with the numbers rubbed off and a bung battery, so an upgrade would be pretty sweet!

I don't like my new Iphone4.
Took this picture with my old Blackberry
I may need professional help
Or I may just need a Droid

Currently I have a phone that doesn't actually belong to me,

A few months back during a snowboarding trip to Wanaka my phone developed some large txt swallowing black holes on the screen, after each flight growing worse.

With the phone I purchased still being under warranty I took to the Vodafone store to see if they'd fix it, all good had a loan phone for a few days (The type of thing you wouldn't loan your worst enemy floppy buttons and other great features such as some ladies Gym appointment alarm waking me in the early hours).

After returning to the store to pickup my phone I was told it was wet and they wouldn't fix or replace the phone (Probably was wet but happened after the black spots and never stopped working.) I turned on my return phone to find the "Black Holes" gone, the lady in the store was surprised as was I, so left happy.

Not long after I noticed my background was different, and for some reason my galley was full of some random photos of a random guy that didn't look anything like the photos of my Girlfriend?
,more of other peoples alarm settings.. And those expensive ring tones Id downloaded where gone! (OK so only 1 of them).

I also noticed the operating system on the phone was different with more frustrating menu settings, way slower and a battery cover which refuses to stay on.

Being to busy/lazy to complain - I didn't, expecting they would call and fix the problem, however no call ever came. Other peoples alarm times came and went, getting bored of looking at the random guys photos of himself I replaced them with photos of myself in suits.

I still have the phone, but the phone doesn't have any black holes.

I *appear* to be very happy with my Nokia C3120C on XT. But that grass, on the other side of the fence..

I'm still using a Nokia 6121 Classic. Surely that makes me the most deserving of a new phone? It certainly makes me fell the most needy...

I used to be satisfied with my little Nokia, truly I did. It let me check my tweets. It let me browse Stuff while waiting for the train. I could even check email on it if I was brave. But I've been seduced. The new Android-bearing touchscreen phones with their sleek looks and eyesight friendly screens are just too alluring.

But alas! A new baby in the house means there's no disposable income for a smartphone right now. I'm left languishing in Symbian country, peering myopically at the tiny screen, thumbs cramping as I try to tweet from my Nokia. All around me smug iPhone users are swiping and pinching their way to happiness. Even the WP7 users are both laughing at me behind their hands.

Help me Geekzone Kenobi - you're my only hope!

I have an Sharp 902SH which had great features (3G,PXT,VideoCalling) before its time, no one else phone supported these feature and when these feature became common, the Sharp 902SH phone feature where out of date and no more support for the phone.

My phone is straight out of Harry Potter.

Don't believe me, eh?.

Well, consider this:
- It is only usable at night. Sometimes I can read it with candles or oil lamps but it's touch and go even then if they're too bright.
- The touchscreen requires a pixie transmogrification so I can get my fingers small enough to use it.
- If I want to take a photo, I have to freeze or immobilise the subject or scene until I borrow a camera. My camera non obscura spells go a bit awry - flashing the subject so badly that it looks like I left the lens cap on.
- The interface is no longer supported - I think "He who must not be named" put them out of business. But there is might be a solution: an arcane art found only in the dark forests of Rumania.... Naturally, I don't want to go there.
- I had thought about putting a "never mend" on it but it looks like it will last forever anyway. It's like having an elf that is meant to be helpful but doesn't really do what I want.

That's my Sony Ericsson W950i, "Dobby".

I'm using an Iphone but would love to try an Andriod based smartphone.

After selling my left kidney to pay for the Iphone I'm unusre if I could sustain the loss of another key organ in order to fund the real world purchase of this kit.

SO to WIN it without the LOSS of further bodily function would indeed be a true MILESTONE :-)

Cheers, P.

I've got a HTC Touch Pro - same form factor as the Milestone, and a bit long in the tooth. Due for an upgrade soon!
