The other day I lost my brand new n95 8gb phone. As I didn't take out insurance when I bought it and don't really want to claim on the home insurance I'm going to have to buy a new handset. What do you lot think would be a good handset - it has to have buttons, so none of that touch screen stuff for me.

Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1! -

It was ok - battery life is a bit rubbish though. It looked good on the media front as the screen is bright and pretty big (hence the battery life) The GPS in it was pretty good also, but I already have a tom tom in the car so something I didn't use that much.
I'm toying with getting another ericsson one as I have to pay for it myself and don't want to shell ot £400 for the nokia. The thing I want most out of it is the ability for it to pick up my mail. It's blocked at work.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

As my phone is in my name and not my companies, will I be covered by my Home Office / Equipment Insurance?
