Once upon a time, Goldilocks went for a wander in the urban jungle. After a while she found herself outside the stylish modern apartment of the three bears, and the door was open, so she went in. The three bears had gone out for porridge, but they'd left their Walkman phones on the table in the hallway. Goldilocks decided to try them out.
The first phone she picked up was the Sony Ericsson W550 belonging to Baby Bear. "This is a cool phone," she said. "It's available on pay-as-you-go, and it has lots of funky features for young people, including a groovy swivel design, changeable faceplates and a big loop at the top so I can hang it round my neck. It has a 1.3-megapixel camera, 3D gaming and stereo speakers so I can play my music to my friends -- but it only has 256MB of internal memory, so it only stores 60-120 songs."

I can have music wherever I go, and I can have music at home. It's not going to be on sale until December, but it's definitely the phone for me."
And the W900 was the phone she stole. -ML
Crave does not condone mobile phone theft, happy slapping or iPod mugging... but if you're going out for porridge, you should lock your door.
