I've had the Nokia 8146 banana phone for over two years on the one2one network, and its still going strong. Originally bought due to its curvaceous figure and the fact that it was at the time a top of the range model, it is still a favourite of mine. Although I now have a Nokia 3210 as well, I much prefer using the 8146, despite its lack of features over the 3210. It is lighter, more fun to use, seems to get better reception and its becoming a bit of a rarity to own once again. So if you do manage to get your hands on a Nokia banana phone, treasure it because this is one of the best phones ever designed.
