  • When your sales aren’t that great, it’s easy to double. Sony continues to struggle to prove that the PS3 is the console of choice for gamers. Unfortunately, the numbers speak for themselves and gamers disagree. How’s last place going Sony?mobile phones for sale

  • Thanks for this – you helped me make the decision on purchasing this phone. I have been torn between the Vivaz and the Aino and have now gone ahead with the Vivaz.

    I actually got it for £10 cheaper a month, making my monthly contract only £25!
