AMD has been on the decline after Intel introduced its core 2 Duo line of processors. It has been late on 65 nm process and they are paying for that. They had the market under total control just one year ago, but now they have lost even their loyal customers. AMD has to produce something very powerful and should be done quickly or they will even lose the small share that they has got.
Coming to the processor, Athlon 64 X2 6000+ is a midrange processor to compete Intel in the midrange segment. It is powerful but not enough to beat Intel's counter parts.
I got this processor in the PC which my uncle gifted to me. So, I have got it free. If I were given a choice before it was gifted to me, I certainly would have asked for an Intel processor in the same price range.
Looking at the processor, we note that it's speed is 3 GHz. It has ...
Advantages: cheap, durable, small, colour screen Disadvantages: not as many features as more expensive phones, silent mode doesnt seem to work!
I will admit I purchased this phone as a panic buy. My previous phone continually cut out, and I needed a new one, on a low budget. The cheapest one I could find at that time was the Sagem My X-2 which was on sale at Argos for £34.99.

Appearance
The phone is metallic blue and silver in colour - see picture, with a colour screen, this is the first phone Ive had with a colour screen, and the resolution is fairly good, although not as good as some of the camera phones. Its fairly ...

I am a happy member of the O2 community and have been for a number of years. In January this year I thought I would treat myself to a new phone (belated xmas pressie to me!) and stray away from my usual Nokia make and be a bit more loyal to the O2 company.
We were up in Lincoln visiting relatives and there was an O2 store within the shopping centre and I saw this O2X2 mobile phone and instantly fell in love with it.
What first attracted me to it was the fact that it was a flip phone (I had never before had a flip phone) and that the front of the phone was made up of a mirror (perfect for checking the lippie). Both me and my boyfriend decided to buy one that day and I rather wish we hadn't.
The phone itself does look really good as it is all in silver and the front bit will illuminate to show either the time or caller ...
