I don`t like cell phones. To be able to be reached any were, by anyone. To be monitored at all times. I may have Prisoner as my Nick, but I don`t want to be a prisoner.

If you can find a Sony P900 for that price I want to know where because they retail for around 900 dollars here in the states.. Where can you get them at that price?

I work for a UK Bank and in Nigeria you can actually go to Nightschool to learn how to defraud a bank.
Consequently all the letters we receive are a basic template, with antiquated english so it is so easy to recognise the fraud. They also always manage to spell Lloyds TSB wrong which doesnt help their case much.
They are getting better though

If you're dumb enough to fall for scams like that, you deserve to lose money until you learn not to be stupid.
"Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger."

Visa is good that way. I hope it works out in your favour. 130 in is still a lot, you could get a portable DAB with that.

lol - yeah, im not too fussed on portable to be honest. I have a portable MP3 player and my new phone plays MP3's (Through the inbuilt speaker - no headphones needed - amazing quality for a phone) so im well happy with my DAB Tuner. The quality is around 128KB/s most of the time, sometimes slightly higher which is great. Plug in the MP3 to the back of it and wh needs tapes eh ;-)

I've got a Nokia 6230.
It has an MP3 Player, you can load up 256MB MMC cards inside under hte battery next to the SIM. You can also view video clips, it came with a few adds on video, very good format and the inbuilt speaker plays them great. Here is the phone on nokia's website:
http://www.nokia.co.uk/nokia/0,,48613,00.html
Really amazing. www.carphonewarehouse.com have them, but they only have the dark brown colour which i dont like. The http://www.phones4u.co.uk/ store has it in silver and gave it to me free with a new contract that was £35 a month, which they reduced to £27 for exactly the same thing.
