Following on from my other thread relating to an LG phone I sold recently, I`ve been looking at a few cheaper end mobiles, but havn`t decided whether to buy one or not. The phone I liked the sound of was the Samsung E1080i/W currently available in Tesco for just under £10.00 on their network.

Does anyone on here have one of these? I wanted to find out a few things that have been bothering me about the phone, such as the keypad lock. Apparently, it has an annoying feature that automatically locks the keypad. It`s probably just a default thing that can be unlocked by pressing the padlock/star key, but I find this quite annoying that they would bother puting such a feature onto a mobile like this in the first place? I could see the point if the phone was a more expensive model, but not on a phone you just switch on to call out or make a text on? What I really want to find out is, if this keypad lock comes on, is it a constant thing or can it be turned off to stay off?
