a while back i was becoming confused between the click and the cliq, so i was beginning to think it was htc cliq. but they changed it to tatoo and motorola still occupy "cliq". so no confusion anymore for myself and shouldnt be for other consumers when just using the nickname.
person 1: "hello there, i was wondering how much the click costs?"
person 2: "sorry, the click isnt out yet".
person 1: "no i mean the cliq".
person 2: "listen mate, i told you once and im not going to repeat myself again. we dont sell the click".
person 1: "im talking about the motorola cliq".
person 2: "ohhh, why didnt you say so? come along, i'll show you what we have on offer for the click or is it cliq? hahaha".

Anyone using LG Cookie? They are aiming to sell 10 million units by the end of this year (and chances are they will since in July they had 5 million phones sold after only a few months).
The point is that I don't know anyone using this phone but people online say that it's much more than just a cheap touchscreen. Most of all people compare that phone to the Iphone -apart from different touchscreen technologies they both have similar specs, Cookie looks better and is smaller and lighter. It does have a custom Java UI without any advanced OS but it does support multitasking and all.
Most of all LG Cookie here is almost 10 times cheaper (literally) than the cheapest Iphone.
Personally I seriously doubt that it's even as good as an Iphone but with its price tag it's at least worth checking out.

sounds interesting ^ i thought it was just a low-end phone - as in you get what you pay for.
i sold my N95 yesterday to computer exchange. i received £78 cash for it. i could have got more for it (£90) 2 weeks ago but i couldnt make my way there as i was busy with too much studying/lectures/workshops in uni at the time.
its better i sold it now rather than later where the price is constantly depreciating.
i took so much care of that phone almost in brand new condition, same for boc and accessories. CEX got an excellent deal there for only £78. but i still have the original nokia cable and AV cable. (hahaha). i gave them a third party usb cable and kept the TV lead.

Sometimes I feel like the world is so backwards on mobile phones compared to for example Japanese mobile phone market.
It's silly that we're talking about qvga video shooting, amoled screens, 8mpx cameras and 800 x 480 pixel screens as high end for a modern phone.
Seriously, I wish I had one of these Japanese phones.

to anyone who lives in the UK and wants a pay as you go phone.
visit t-mobile.co.uk before 6pm today and get special online offers (33% discount on all PAYG phones).
the Samsung Tocco Lite has been reduced from £90 (in store price) to £65 (in sotre price) to £45 (online price).
Nokia 2730 (which ive just ordered for my dad) has been reduced from £59 (in store price) to £39 (online price).
T-mobile Pulse is £140 (in store price) to £90 (online price). this is an Android phone!
these are subject to £10 top-up, so just add the £10 price to the total. delivery is free and will be delivered to the address within 2 working days.
Phones4U were offering me the nokia 2730 for £40, £10 top-up totalling £50 and on vodaphone £50 for phone, £10 min top up = £60. i went back the day after (yesterday) and the price increased to make it £70 so i didnt purchase.
the best thing is that my dad is on t-mobile and doesnt want to change his number so its very convenient that i got the mobile phone for a great price which is on t-mobile (i.e. not locked to another provider - meaning that he doesnt have to switch networks, unlock the phone or phone up and request the PAC number and wait several working days for the transition to take effect).
Orange are selling the same phone for £100 online - anyone who buys it at that price is seriously retarded. compare £60 to £100 which would you rather spend for the same item? exactly!
