WHY I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT MY
Nokia 6101
Why did you buy it?
Because it's pretty. I think Nokia phones have the most intuitive menus. I went away from them for a while and have now come back because they're easy to use.
What does it do for you?
I travel around a lot for work, but have to make sure people can get hold of me. The camera produces decent quality pictures so I've used it to take lots of photos of my beautiful baby nephew. Also, it's a flip-top phone so I don't have to remember to lock the keypad and I'm not forever calling people by accident.
Would you recommend it to others? Why?
Yes, absolutely. It's a great phone.
