Nokia 8210



I've been halfheartedly looking for a new mobile phone. Halfhearted because everything available in Singapore is either ugly or expensive and ugly.

I'm tired of hideous phones and I'm tired of overly fancy phones full of gimmicks that cost a bomb and I'm tired of all the cross copying of designs that's happening across all the brands resulting in one big lumpy pool of phones I don't even want to look at.

All I want now is the Nokia 8210. I just need to SMS and talk and play traditional Snake (I stopped playing when they revamped the game in the later models. I liked how clean the old Snake looked, the newer versions are as excessive and redundant as the phones holding them.) I have a digital camera and five film cameras, I have an iPod and I have Internet and email at home. I just need the good old 8210 with its compact, pretty functionality.

Anyone wants to sell?
