    Default Cheap mobile phone with bluetooth

    Simple question. Anyone know what a good cheap mobile phone with bluetooth capability (to hook up to a handsfree) is?

    I'm out of contract and am looking to buy a cheap phone I'll use for about a year. I prefer a Nokia interface, but as long as it's not too hard to sms in, I could go to another brand, doesn't bother me.

    I'm not looking to spend much over $150, less if possible for a new phone with a warranty. The online shops in eBay have them pretty cheap with a tax invoice, but I'm not sure what just has bluetooth file transferring and what has bluetooth headset compatability.

    Cheers

    I have the Sony Ericsson W810i, it cost me well over 800 bucks when it came out, they are now between 100 and 200 bucks. They are a bloody great fone, aswell as bluetooth you have infared, and usb connection. Battery life is great lasts about a week plus with minimal use, and i normally get two days if im texting/games and listening to music.
    It has a mp3 player with a standard card of 512mb but can upgrade to 2gb for bout 30 bux. Oh and as for messageing ive sent over 7500 messages in less then a year lol, their really good and quick for texting caus the buttons are all seperate.

    And their pretty solid mines been dropped a heap of times, come out whilst riding bikes and motorbikes, and it just keeps going.

    I highly recommend this phone, it does everything, web browsers, mp3 player, 2mp camera, video with sound, java games, pc connection. and now their cheap as its even better.

    My brother got one from aldi for his missus, it's a nokia but i couldn't tell you the number of it.He got it for $70 and it's a great little phone with bluetooth etc.
    It's a flip phone if that helps.

    Dick Smith and other places have the Nokia 2730 with Bluetooth $79 Optus Prepaid.

    I also found a few run out models at Woolies at $49 with Bluetooth, but can't remember the model.

    Dont think his current phone has bluetooth, but it has the capability to call in an airstrike on Lost_Pete.
