Oh jeez, could you imagine sitting beside somebody txting for 8 hours or more, with the *brink brink* when it's received and the *beep beep beep* as they type? Argh!

Oh god no thanks. Texting ON VIBRATE should be allowed, but no calling.

      The first BlackBerry clamshell looks great and does the basics well, though its lack of 3G data speeds is disappointing.

    • Samsung INNOV8 (i8510)

      Samsung INNOV8 (i8510)

      The INNOV8 is loaded with features and sports massive storage. If you're in the market for a mobile phone that can do just about anything the INNOV8 should be on your shortlist.

    • Sony Ericsson R306

      Sony Ericsson R306

      This one's for your nan -- it's a basic, budget flip phone equipped with an AM radio and not much else.

    • Nokia 6600 Fold

      Nokia 6600 Fold

      It's been a long time since we last saw a Nokia that failed to do the basics well, but the 6600 Fold fits this description. It looks great but, with poor call quality, the Fold is a dismal under-achiever.
