Hello!
Not a fan of blackberrys but me missis wants one, dont want anything expensive but perhaps something around £100 or less. Anyone has one, or can suggest something reasonable? thanks!

blackberry 8520 or 9300

Should be able to get a Curve 8520 for around £100. Remember you'll need the Blackberry Internet Services added as well which will be £5 a month.

The 8520 is rubbish. I'd spend that little bit extra and get a 9300 or 9700

Yep exactly what i was going to say...get her a 9300 or the 9700 if you stretch your budget further...the 8520 really isnt a very good phone.

Which is not yet available for people using GiffGaff.

But ye, a 8520 would be a good choice, slick device and is really easy to use.
