I need to find a late-eighties mobile (working/non-working/display)...
What make/model should I look for?
Cheers ... Mark

My 12-year-old lost his mobile a couple of weeks ago - had a Tesco PAYG
SIM in it.
We don't know whether it has been nicked/lost and found by someone, or
whether he's just misplaced it, which has an influence on how we proceed

I am successfully using this phone as a dial-up modem with a laptop,
at 9.6k, dialling up a normal UK ISP (0845..).
However, the connection takes 45-60 secs to establish and most of this
is probably the modem negotiation time. I am sure the ISP starts off

I'm thinking of getting one of these but believe there may be an issue
getting them unlocked. Is this still the case? I'm looking at a payg
phone on Vodafone but need to be able to use a couple of SIM cards.

While I'm here worrying about how to contact Orange, I've got an 0800
number written down for use in emergencies when I lose my Orange phone
(which I've used in the past from a callbox). However, it doesn't work
anymore. As far as I can see I would now have to call them on 07973

A friend is being refused any form of warranty service on a faulty phone she
has.
Her and her son are both on (seperate) Orange contracts, however they
switched handsets as they preferred each other's.

Does anyone have a fax number for Orange? All internet research has

I'm planning to switch mobile network (currently on Orange on a

The speed/ transfer rate of my mobile broadband modem fluctuates

Is it anything to do with signal strength?
TIA.

I have entered the settings an endless amount of times. Sought various

Just got myself a mobile broadband dongle and can't use it because of
the above. Is this common with three and how long do the outages
usually last.

Could someone please give me some Cell IDs with LACs for the SE
Cornwall and Plymouth area. I am experimenting with a program called
Cell Track on my old Nokia 3650 and as I will shortly be taking a
holiday in the above area I would like to put the info in the cell

If I buy a PAYG mobile from O2 will I be able to just take my current
PAYG SIM card out of my old N70 and put it into the new phone? What
about the SIM card that comes with the phone? Can I just bin it?

I've just had a 3 USB modem (with SIM) delivered. There are several
numbers in the SIM card. Are any of them the PUK or, if not, how does
Three give them out?
