mandy, merton

+ there are no good points about this phone unless you are a business man.

- I purchased an o2x1b pay as you go phone in advance for my 12 year old son for this christmas because he wanted bluetooth and the price was reasonable. i gave my son the phone on 21st Dec to open, we could not connect his phone to any other bluetooth phone, i rang 02 the man told me this phone is only used for small buisness with a headset, so my son would not be able to enjoy bluetooth with his friends with other bluetooth phones. No where on this phone does it say not compatable for anyone to put against another bluetooth phone, you can only download from this phone from a computer.
