I have to confess that I am a long-term fan of Nokia's phones even though, looks-wise, they're looking quite dated now. The first phone I ever had was a 3210 and it was a robust little phone that withstood a fair few knocks without a problem. However, the glimmer of new tech succeeded in dragging me away a couple of times, only to be disappointed. My phone list goes something like this: Nokia 3210 , which stayed with me for years Sony Ericsson T68i , which I was disappointed with partly because the raved-about colour screen was naff and partly because the joystick broke Nokia 6680 , which I was happy with for a couple of years Orange SPV M3100 (HTC TYTN), which was quite a good machine for the first month, and then the touch screen stopped working, so it got dumped in the drawer and the 6680 was called back into service.

Any budding Spielbergs out there fancy 60 seconds of fame?

I wouldn't mind doing something like this myself but there is soooooo much to be doing that I just do not have the time so, for anyone who does want to do it be aware that a) the film has to be based around the theme of "Unite", and b) you have to get your skates on as uploads are only being accepted up to 5pm on 4 January 2008! Good luck if you decide to go for it and let me know when you post anything!
