I've just gone through two Nokia 7650's, damn I loved that brick of a phone. I borrowed my mums tiny little phone for 2 days and I lost it..

I can't stand tiny little phones, I need a big chunky thing.. Does anyone else feel weird talking into a matchbox? It's the technological equivalent of a smart car..

But I now need a new phone and I'm probably gonna buy it second hand cuz I'm strapped for cash..

Does anyone have any recommendation? I wouldn't mind one of those tough as nails builders, tradey phones.. As far as I'm concerned, the bigger the better.. Provided it fits in my pocket..

Any suggestions?

if the phone has bluetooth than it can be used with any bluetooth device so long as software is accepted, see back of packet for details...ie phone has driver, device works, just like a puter..good luck mate!

not sure if it can be used with wireless headset, havent tried. dunno how much i want for it, will get another fone first. one thing tho, it is dropping reception randomly and wont pick back up without me making it. i gotta take it apart and check it.

knowing me i probably wont sell it if i fix it though. i have a habit of keeping my fones.

I had 2 7650's with blue tooth, they were star trek when I bought the first one.. Paid close to a grand for it.. Damn I was stupid..

That phone's bluetooth, but it's not compatible with a headset. Only compatible with bluetooth computer receivers..

Or has technology progressed heaps since then?

the 6600 was released not too far away from the 7650, 7650 was like first with bluetooth, or damn close, so the tech was pretty basic.
