I'm amazed!  :eek

Whilst ogling at my amazement I'm remembering my Nokia 2680. Great phone, good address book and good photo's, for the technology of the day. It did exactly what I wanted - 'til some persons of a lesser sub existence decided to steal it.

Went to get a new one and Nokia had 'moved on' from that model to a 'new, better, slicker' model, which made me by my first I-phone 6 months later.

Have to say my 4S has served me well for three years now.

Have had iPhone for work since they came out. Now have a 5 and my own iPad. A proverbial house full of Apples. Have always found them good to use and very few problems. Am hearing good reports from the Android based users and I like that things are improving across the board.

So Streak, what you're saying is you have in your system, an Apple car with an Apple engine and gearbox, and Apple clutch, Apple diffs and an Apple stereo, all of which, I presume, sync pretty well together and you're having no real hassles that come to the front of your mind.?

However, some of your mates have got newer, different toys...

Do I paint a picture here?

Yep I would say you are right, everything works without a hitch  :thumb

but it is what works for me, others like to do different things, I am always looking and observing, I never close my mind to something different, but at the moment, I am all appled up...

I just copied the ST1300 Worshop Manual .pdf onto my Galaxy S4.

Now I can break down anywhere!        :crackup


Loving the ease which Android works as an OS - the manual got copied onto the 32Gb removable micro SD card in the phone.


Same when I went travelling - just dragged a couple of movies over the the phone's drive and watched them.      :thumbsup

Yes - but then I can only break down in a 3G or 4G area!      :wink1

And 52Mb out of 32Gb is bugger all to allot to this resource.      :thumbs

Best not to have a phone smarter than the operator. Thats why I just have a flip mobile.  I am having a look at the comments on other options though  :think1

I've looked at it on my phone and it's easily read, the large screen helps.

I was impressed with my wifes Samsung Note so I have just bought myself a Note II. Sold my Motorola Xoom tablet (I'm going to miss the large screen), and unpowered my old Nokia 5110. I'm really impressed with how well set up the Note is, and now I can make a dash for the ST1100 and fit a mount for the Note!

Don't have any sort of either Smarts or Phone.
The young fella has one of those Samsung Flip up things ,but I cannot use it because I can't hear it.
Where is the on /off function and is there a loudness adjuster ? like the throttle thingy on the ST.

Samsung S2 4G Telstra, works a treat.

Bought it s/h 2 year ago still a great phone, not an apple lover, tied too much into there own software etc. Each to their own though. My Mrs and little Mrs swears by them, me at them ( phone that is ).Problem is later phones are too big more like a tablet than a phone, but once again each to there own :wht11
