It's
amazing just how much mobile telephones have developed in just the
last few years. Our designer reluctantly switched from his
trusty Alcatel DB Max to the feature packed Motorolla V220. The
change was not because the Alcatel was faulty, but rather the extended
talk time and tempting Virgin offers which made the purchase irresistible.
It's
a simple matter to slip in your old SIM card, and off you go
again. To prove it you can phone Nelson
right now on 07905 147709 and pledge support for
the Solar Navigator project. Nelson needs a phone that is
rugged enough to cope with working on site in all weathers and cope
with his weekends training and working in the workshop, building
vehicles.
Nelson's
Motorolla V220
Nelson's
air time bill has been reduced yet further since
buying this phone and staying with Virgin's
splendid pay as you go service. Nelson believes Virgin's
pay-as-you-go service represents incredible value
for money compared to both of the competitors
service. As
if this wasn't enough, because Nelson bought his
phone over the internet, Virgin gave him £45
worth of free airtime. The phone was
delivered on-site and was ready to roll after
charging the battery pack.
