    Visa is good that way. I hope it works out in your favour. 130 in is still a lot, you could get a portable DAB with that.

    lol - yeah, im not too fussed on portable to be honest. I have a portable MP3 player and my new phone plays MP3's (Through the inbuilt speaker - no headphones needed - amazing quality for a phone) so im well happy with my DAB Tuner. The quality is around 128KB/s most of the time, sometimes slightly higher which is great. Plug in the MP3 to the back of it and wh needs tapes eh ;-)

    I've got a Nokia 6230.

    It has an MP3 Player, you can load up 256MB MMC cards inside under hte battery next to the SIM. You can also view video clips, it came with a few adds on video, very good format and the inbuilt speaker plays them great. Here is the phone on nokia's website:

    Really amazing. www.carphonewarehouse.com have them, but they only have the dark brown colour which i dont like. The http://www.phones4u.co.uk/ store has it in silver and gave it to me free with a new contract that was £35 a month, which they reduced to £27 for exactly the same thing.
