Just got off a 17 minute video call with a friend in Jozi...after I finished the call I noticed that the phone relatively hot. Anyone experience this? It always happens after heavy use.

I have finally parted company with my Nokia 3230. It was a good, reliable smartphone. It is now on the way to my older sister, via my nephew who is flying back to SA tonight.
I’m planning to get something more substantial in the coming months…
In the interim, here’s something that da brixsta would recognise all too well:
(Good old eBay!) I have a few specific searches saved in 'my favourites' on the PC, and I couldn't resist this classic when I saw it was going for a piffling £15 on BIN, and the condition... yup, it wasn't on BIN for long...
Almost incredibly, it's brand-spanking new and totally unused, complete with everything. How rare is that for a 2001 model phone? The Bluetooth-equipped T39m. What a classic.
Even the manual is still sealed in its original plastic.
5 years between these 2 handsets.
Not sure which SIM I'm going to put in there yet; I have many freebie SIM's with some credit on from UK network online promos, or I might just keep it as it is for a while and maybe sell it on esato to some die-hard Ericsson fan for a good few more shekels perhaps...we'll see which way the wind blows.

God wanqa, that's one awesome buy. I've been off eBay for some time- weary of scammers. Please tell us how this classic performs.

If I end up using it, I sure will brixster, but it's such a rarity in this state (ie. BNIB) nowadays that I'm half tempted to leave it as it is for now; who knows what it would be worth like this to a /// collector in a few more years' time...? We'll see; maybe my curiosity and obvious interest will get the better of me.

That is one interesting piece of mobile memorabilia there...I vote for the saving it. You never know, some mobile museum might want it one day...but the collector is more likely.
Amazing to see how technology has changed over the last few years!

Nice find there, boet, that phone looks beautiful! The longer you can keep it in that pristine condition the better...
Have you guys also noticed the Xmas feeding frenzy? It's like people have gone crazy with their bonuses and are buying anything and everything on which they can lay their hands. There's a store selling those iPod modulators for R400 ... Directly next door is a store which is flogging them for 33% less... Neither store can keep up with the demand, according to their sales staff. Insanity, i tell ya.

@da wanqsta: Nice avatar there mate!
@786KBR: Any
beta testers in SA? I knew my friend da wirelessmonkey always got the phones before they were widely released in SA. Are there people who get the phones months before their European releases?
