Quick question

    Smart phones.

    Am I right in thinking a smart phone is what I would need to get if I want a notification when I get an email?

    Presumably this phone would have to be online all the time? Meaning a new internet account? How much does this cost... roughly?

    I had a quick look on carphone warehouse and they have a cheap smartphone there for 60euro... however when I click into it the website reports an error. And Im having zero luck finding it on amazon, so what would peoples opinion be on a Samsung Galaxy Mini priced at 60 euro?

    Literally all I need is a phone to let me know when I get an email. Im sick of getting an email when Im out on the road and then only seeing it when I get home.

    If you buy a phone from Three, and keep it topped up by 20 a month, you get unlimited data, so you don't have to rely on wifi or wait until you get home to access your email or internet.

    You'd be better of getting a newer phone than the Samsung Galaxy Mini. It's a bit old now. You'd be better off with Sony Xperia E or Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo if you're on a 60 euro budget.

    EDIT: Actually the Xperia E is out of stock, still looks like a good phone though, it's what I'd pick.
