I have used all 3 phones in the Siemens series the A65,A60 and the A31. Also the old C35.
I found the A60 the easiest to use it is slightly larger than the A65 and the A31. The charger and battery is compatable with the A65. I found the A60 to be more robust than other phones having dropped it a few times it does not seem to damage easily like other phones. It recharges in about 2 hours. The alarm clock is good and works automaticaly without haveing to leave the phone switched on. The phone book is quite handy , you can save numbers that have just called you. Also there is a messaging facility that tells you if you have missed a call.
The games are quite good Stack attack is quite addictive.
There is an internet facility but I found it quite difficult to use.
A bit slow and also a bit expensive for the amount of information available. My own experience of using the key lock was it was unreliable and did not always work if it was in your pocket the phone could still turn on. I found this a bit unusual considering to switch on you have to confirm the switch on by pressing another button, a very annoying feature of the phone I must add.
The main problem with the phone is that it can switch on to the internet if a button is pressed in your pocket. This can be expensive if you are not careful. I used pay as you go, the phone cuts out if you go below £1, I am not sure if this is a recent development as you normally get a warning e-mail. The e-mail can cut off your ine if you are in conversation,another minor hazard of using the phone.

Quite useful for a first review, if a little short and sweet. Suzy x
