Advantages: stylish, good size, durable

Disadvantages: crashes, other operational problems

Nokia 3330 - lovely size (not too big to fit into your pocket yet not too small to easily loose), durable (and the option of changing the cover and buttons if you damage those) yet terribly unreliable. The problems with my Nokia 3330 started straight away, every so often the phone completely freezes and reboots, very irritating if you've just written the whole of an SMS message you're going to have to write all over again in about a minute when it sorts itself out. Probably more than half the times my phone has crashed have been whilst connecting to the wireless internet using the WAP capability. More recently and more irritating is a tendancy to loose the network - nothing to do with coverage (when you switch it off and on again the coverage is back) even when there are 4 bars on the coverage indicator on the left of the screen. The crashing i can cope with as it may go offline for a minute or so but it sorts itself out, the new problem is much worse as you can go for hours without realising that you're unavailable.
