That's a very good idea, and one I hadn't considered. I'll look into it. That would certainly be a quick way to gain entry to the market.
Thanks,

Why doesn't it work with Vodafone?

Don't know - it just never did. It wasn't locked when I bought it, it just refused to accept Vodafone sims - Orange, EE, and Virgin all worked, but not Voda.
I can't keep the old one as a backup any more: I moved the number to the new one, so gawd knows what it would try to do!

Odd, maybe HP isn't that stupid after all.

They are a sort of "anti-Apple": they come up with brilliant ideas and then entirely fail to market them.
(Whereas Apple don't come up with anything new and market the heck out of it!)

Maybe 20 years ago HP hired a new head of marketing, somebody from a big consumer products company. This hire was reported in the Wall Street Journal, along with a quote from an HP leader along the lines of "we are so terrible at marketing that, if we sold sushi, we'd market it as cold, dead fish"

Please, please, please send it in to the site that offered "up to £0.04", I want to know exactly how much they actually pay for it. I am even willing to reimburse you for any difference between the £0.04 and the actual price given, just so I can find out.

If the ringer is easy to get to with a soldering iron I think you have the makings of an IED but I wouldn't advertise that as a feature on eBay.

Here you can send your old phone to someplace that does whatever to them and donates the proceeds to a children's hospital. You could be last of the big donators

Vodafone stores used to contain a recycle box. The phones got sent to people in emerging markets that can't afford them.

I've had it for about 20 years, but at least it gone to a friend who is going to tidy it up back to show condition.
Now my man shed looking a bit bare. So I might look for another classic bike. Not British this time, maybe jap.

awesome bike, but I'd never find one here. Not sure if they ever made to New Zealand. That and the Lamborghini will just have to stay in the dreams.

An old friend of mine recently tried to do Route 66 on his Vincent HRD Rapide Series A. He broke a conrod about half way and the bike is now in a friend's workshop somewhere near Toronto.
He paid a little over a million dollars for it.
|
|
|
|
|
Now that's about a million more then I can afford
|

He bought it because he brother was p!ssing him off since he'd bought a Series C.

CB750F1? It's a classic (if not a lot of fun to ride in modern traffic, the brakes are ... um ... poor).
Honda Black Bomber?
Kwak H2? (Lobotomy required)
Yamaha LC250?
Or if you are feeling adventurous, an SS900 Ducati? You'll need good mechanical sensibilities and aptitude!

Id have to admit a Honda cb750 k2 or similar is very high on my list, even the cb550, however I hear they have a neutral between every gear when they were new. Would love a six cylinder CBX but hard to find a original one now and getting pricey

I got "stuck" on CB550's for a while - every time I changed bikes I seemed to end up with another one - must have had half a dozen or more.
Stiff suspension, so with good tires (I used H-rated Pirelli Phantoms) they went round corners pretty well - particularly without the stock exhaust which grounded out far too quickly and weighed a ton!
Can't remember that many false neutrals, not until the mileage started to get over 75K and things got a bit sloppy (when one of mine would change down for you if you closed the throttle going up hill  )
Front brake needs frequent attention - stupid sliding caliper which seizes far to easily - and the oil filter bolt rounds off often (typical Honda of the era: all screws and bolts are made of an adamantium core with a cream-cheese outside for the tool to grip)
Oh, and the camchain needs to be cared for - it gets expensive if you ignore a rattle!
Other than that, good solid bikes!

Good info. Thanks. I more interested in doing something up then doing high mileage and hence just be used for the occasional pottering round. It probably take me a few years just to do that!
