I don't know Mr Smith statto. Have a look at ROADA.

Many thanks

Is 4GB worth the extra money? I guess it probably is........ Storage (ROM) with an extra card giving a...

You will be missed

I want a phone and package that will allow me to make telephone calls, send texts, access Line and, most important, allow me to use Grab (the taxi app). Don't need an all singing/dancing model - the above are my essentials. Totally ignorant about these so advice also appreciated. Anyone have a secon...

Modern cars are designed to fall apart all around you in a crash - but the passenger cabin itself tends to stay relatively intact in even the worst smash.
