right peeps, been thinking about getting a new phone.
Seen a really good deal on at the mo, Vodaphone offering a free 6230, for £8 month, but with an 18month contract.
I was thinking of buying this, but unlocking it and putting my normal pay as you go sim in it.
good idea do you think?

But you will still have to pay the contract so what's the advantage

nokia 6230 = 103 x 44 x 20 mm
nokia 6680 = 108 x 54 x 18 mm
Too big? its only slightly wider and taller cause its got a massive screen.
And the phone is about 3985 times better than the 6230.
All depends what you want from a phone.
If you want to make/receive calls and text go for the 6230.
If you want to do everything else get a 6680 but i can guarantee you can get a better deal than what you have been offered for you 6230.
