Advantages: Small, powerful, feature-packed, excellent messaging.

Disadvantages: vibe uses power up quickly

This little beaut. is pretty much everything it is cracked up to be, boy was my gadget-mad brother jealous when he saw I had a 3310; he thought his 3210 was the best!
To be honest, the phone chose me, BT gave it to me along with some extras when I changed my call plan. This raises an interesting point though; it does seem that the majority of Nokia 3310 phones that I have come across tend to use BT Cellnet as their service provider, with the schoolkid-brain-frying Orange next. Maybe a coincidence, maybe Cellnet is on a roll, what dooyoo reckon?
As the man said the phone has so many features that you are almost guaranteed not to use them all. This is a moot point however as I would have liked to have had more than 5 voice-activated dialling options and maybe the variety could have been toned down to increase the quality.
As for the games; it is great to see the African game they call "Bantumi" (I know it as "Awari") there. This game can be as complex as chess and will suit the more, shall we say mature? No, let's say sophisticated, user.
All in, an excellent example of 3rd generation tech. and a taste of things to come.
PS did I mention the incredible messaging options, pity many other mobi's aren't up to accepting them!
