Mobile Phone number portability
Tue, 8 Sep 2009 10:28:53 +0100
Is it possible to retain a PAYG mobile number if you move to
another supplier for PAYG. I don't need a contract (?¡ê10 a year or so),

Samsung iDCS100 - Wiring Diagram?
Wed, 2 Sep 2009 18:44:40 +0100

be configured to loop-disconnect, which is good. Thing is, though:
1) The wires ...

Siemens A385 and C385
Fri, 28 Aug 2009 15:04:40 +0100
I am thinking about one of these telephones to service my
communication and answering phone needs. It seems to me that the C
model has a colour screen and more options at the base unit. The A
model only allows messages to be retrieved using the handset. What I
