Hi,
I've been searching for a phone that I had a glimpse of, and I can't find it anywhere on your website. I am fairly sure it is a Siemens, and it is red with flashing diamonds on the cover. It is a flip top, and if you leave the screen on it turns into a mirror. I would appreciate some information on this phone, if you know what one I'm talking about.
Thank you very much.

Hi Kate,
The way you describe the phone does not match any model that I have seen recently, but then I haven't seen all of them as they are coming on the market at such a rapid rate these days.
However, I then had a thought that maybe you hadn't had a proper look at this phone (a glimpse you say?). There has been an advert on TV for a Sendo 550, which I believe shows some sort of flashing sparkles like diamonds (a photographic trick I think), and it is a flip phone with a red cover. I believe the advert I saw shows the screen turning into a mirror, although in practice I do not think the screen actually does that (the Nokia 7280 has a mirror screen, but that is an entirely different animal).
Check out the picture of the Sendo 550 on their website at: www.sendo.co.uk/ourphones/details.asp?ID=9
We have covered Sendo 550 on the Mobile Phone Directory, but the picture we have used does not show the red cover.
I may have this completely wrong, but if this is not the phone you are interested in then I'll have another look for you, although people say that the Sendo 550 is very popular with the ladies.
