I'm amazed at the Lobster in honesty!

I paid Ã‚Â£22.99 for mine, and I'm really happy with it! The buttons take a bit of getting used to but now I swear by them.

Yes, it's a big(ish) phone but that really doesn't bother me.

The killer app for me isn't the TV (although I really enjoy it and will miss it) but the Windows Mobile functionality. I've never had a phone that syncronises so seamlessly with my computer - it's fantastic.

A smartphone for under Ã‚Â£100 is unheard of.

A phone with full bluetooth functionality for under Ã‚Â£40 is almost unheard of aswell.

For me, it represents fantastic value for money.

But anyway, it's sad that the plug is being pulled on this service now. I figured it'd only be a stop gap between now and analogue switch off (when frequencies for DVB-M transmissions will become available). I guess only Oxford will enjoy mobile TV until around 2012 then.
