- Good to hear from you Meraj. I'm willing to bet it wasn't a Nokia N97 that you gave to your father?

Just had lunch with her indoors then popped into the carphone warehouse store in Worthing. They didn't have any in stock but I ordered one. It cost £14.95 which includes the £10 credit - this I will sell on ebay probably as we already have a contract monthly sim.

Hopefully this will last her a couple of months until the Nokia n79 comes out on the networks.

I can only find one instance of it on the Carphone Warehouse website and that is for £10.

Please supply a link to this offer?
