Hi guys, well my contract is coming up for renewal and im a bit confused about what would be the best option to take since they've sent me a whole catalogue of their specials. Options are as follows:

Option 1:
PS3 and Samsung D900i

Option 2:
Wii and Nokia 5310 Express Music

Option 3:
Lenovo 3000 N200 Lappy with Samsung E250

Option 4:
Sansui 37" LCD TV and Samsung E250

Option 5:
Samsung U700 and R2000 NWJ Gift Voucher ( no idea what NWJ is )

Option 6:
HTC Touch


Now im pretty much not really up for the touch since everytime i get a nice brand new expensive phone, it gets stolen plus the work i do involves alot of having to get down and dirty.

Any ideas?
 
Well, if that's what you're choosing from, there is no choice: I only see one Nokia in the list :p
 
Where'd this above post come from?!?

Anyway, i'd go for Option 4! 37" Screen in your TV room will come in handy, wouldn't it? ;) Unless you already have one. HTC Touch is a useless phone. Like u said, your jobs requires you to get down and dirty, E250 will let you do just that, without worrying about it dropping and the touch screen cracking like the HTC..
 
By the way, is that with Vodacom?
Nope, iTalk/MTN and from being a previous vodacom contract holder these guys have impressed me over the last 2yrs

Yeah, what contract is that? Talk500/1000 I assume?
The above options is a mix between MyCall 100 and a ProCall 120. Since my current contract was a once off special they said i can move to a contract with an equivilant sub rate.

Umm where all the Nokias?

Probly on the list but for time saving matters i couldnt post all the options

Edit: Looked on the list and the following nokia's i could get ( dif package but same subscription )
1. N95 8GB
2. E90
3. N82
4. 6500 Slide ( R2500 HiFi Corp voucher )

I got mine, wouldn't swop it for any other... also fairly 'rugged' - covers are available to make it that much tougher as well.

Im sure the phone is great and rugged but to think i choose that over a console/tv/lappy when all im going to be doing is using it to make calls. The GPS attracted me but after finding out you gotta subscribe in order to use it i thought fsckit, wait til i get a garmin.

Only smart phone i might consider ALOT would be the SE X1 but that aint here yet :(
 
I'll take this option,
Option 3:
Lenovo 3000 N200 Lappy with Samsung E250

Is this on pro120?

The 8GB version comes with 2 years navigation included ;). Garmin; Their software is well, :sick:

But yeah, if you're ONLY going to be using it for calls, getting a N95 is a complete waste, this baby is capable of astonishing things :D

No its on MyCall 100. This is according to the March Speicals Exel he sent me:


Samsung E250 Lenovo 3000 N200 Laptop

Package: MyCall 100
Subs (pm): 135.00
CLI: R8.00
IB: R21.50
Promo Fee: R175

TOTAL: R 339.50/pm

I dunno about other places but it seems iTalk have really good specials always going on. My current one is proof of that
 
Its now become a choice between the tele and the lappy. I wouldnt mind a nice LCD TV but then again i also wouldnt mind a new pc since my current lappy is getting old and i dont exactly have the money to spend on a new desktop. Very confusing
