Hi y'all.

Friend I work with has recently had her bag stolen from the airport, losing phone & laptop. She's training to be a counsellor and has asked if I know anyone who has either an iphone/android phone and/or a laptop in decent working condition to tide her over until she can replace properly.

Obviously she's willing to pay but the cheaper the better so figured it was worth a shot asking you guys :)

You can get decent android phones for around £50 new now days! ZTE Blade (Orange san fransisco) is a famous example, can't think of others right now, thought the HTC Wildfire was cheap but thats still raound £100 new even though the wildfire s is out... How much has she got for a laptop?

I don't know, she had a car crash Saturday, only found out this afternoon :/ won't she need to pay for a contract with that price phone though?

Well assuming she already had a contract of some sort?! £50-70 is upfront payg price for the san fran, the thing is a total bragain, capacitive screen 800x600 gps all the little things a smartphone needs, but SUPER cheap! Represents everything good wanted from android me thinks :)

Alex is right, one of the girls at work bought one for her son who really wanted an iPhone (not happening boyo!) - it's a cracking phone for the cash.

I tend to wear old phones out so I'm no help sorry!
