Its a lovely phone - i had a lot of trouble at first, but that was mainly due to total unfamiliarity with the phone rather than it being inherantly annoying - i think i've mastered most of the essential things now, and it's more than adequate! :)
There are many places than unlock phones in Stratford - unfortuantely I tried on the Sunday before the Bank Holiday, and they were all shut, as were all mobile phone shops in Stratford. I found one open in Leytonstone however, which charget 15 pounds for unlocking, which i thiout a little steep, but i don't know how much it is usually, and as they were the only ones open, and i wasn't willing to wait until tuesday, I chose them. They did make up for it by only charging me 15 pounds for a SIM card, which apparently cost 30 pounds in most other mobile phone shops. So 30 pounds in total, which I'm happy with. Thanks once again for the phone! :)
