MooDoozmoylan-pi: let me know about the phone, thinking of getting one myself.10:12
zmoylan-piit will be hard to find in dublin for a few months i suspect, demand has been high and carphonewarehouse told me that it would only be available online in ireland.  so will have to wait till phone accessory/unlocking shops have them in...10:13
zmoylan-pibut the challenge means i search a lot of techie shops and locals and that's a lot of walking and exercise...10:14
zmoylan-pibut the nokia 3310 would make an ideal fm radio/podcast phone as the battery will last all day with nary a dent10:16
