Pictured is a grey Nokia E71.

Teachers get a $400 (more if you are a seasoned teacher $750 i think) LDS Claim (Learning & Development Scheme) every year which they can spend on items that will assist in their professional development etc. Items range from PDAs, Laptops, Cameras, Recorders, Smartphones... But you will have to explain if needed, the function of the item you bought that structures to LDS before it gets approved.
IPhones were approved previously in my school, and my sister had friends getting Ipod Touch(s).

Before it was capped yesterday, I went out to Lot1 and got the E71 in black. Would you believe it, I was in the market for a smartphone after my LG Viewty decided to be a bitch, and having heard of the LDS Claim made me tippy! Not only can I get my phone, but I can claim part of the purchase back so literally, I got a brand new phone without contract for 1/5 of the price.

Am loving it so far, especially love the sleek design and the qwerty keypad. And have I mentioned how good it is as an organiser?! *lovelove*
I stored my Nokia 3120 classic phone in a drawer and sold my uugghh white LG Viewty for $70 at Lot1. Kinda low, but I wasn't using it anyway and it had scratches and the camera hangs quite a bit. So I'm pretty happy..

Life has been treating me good so far. Alhamdulilah....
