Can't imagine there will be a huge demand for any of the above at those prices especially the the Moto @ £249.99.

OTT.

NO WAY!

That £249.99 one will fly out of the shop. Finally a LG phone with a 1.3 megapixel camera, bluetooth and expandable memory

I agree with 3GSU, I'd be surprised if the Moto sells at that price, but I guess the LG has more of a chance. Still, £250 is a lot of money to pay for any handset that is locked to a network and branded! I mean, for pete's sake, you can get a Nokia 6230i (megapixel camera, bluetooth, expandable memory) SIM-Free for £199.99!

Still, at the same time it looks like prepay subsidies are at a reasonable level. The customer will have to learn that if you want a decent phone they're going to have to pay over £100 for it.

At those prices, might be better of getting it free on contact and cheap line rental, withall those free mins, or buy it sim free on E Bay, im sure its cheaper than that there?

I was thinking about getting the V1050 but then saw it does NOT have bluetooth. So now im looking at getting that LG with all the extra features the older ones didnt have

Do you really want an LG?

They are OK I suppose but they are big and pretty heavy.

Look at SE and Samsung for cutting edge 3G design.

I have always loved LG phones but thought they lack good features like a decent camera, bluetooth or expandable memory.

Lucky for me this has all of those added in
