we need more info on this - and possibly some forensic work on the drowned phone to retrieve the pix from its memory :-)

Pre 3 is a good call, and my non-techie wife swears by her old original Pre. She finds it really easy to use, and the interface is very intuitive.

However, I think £49 is a pipe dream even if you manage to order one ... that figure sprang from some US press reports claiming that Pre 3 would be sold in Europe at $75 (which is around £49 depending on the conversion rate you pick). Personally I think £90 - £120 is a more realistic figure, if you are lucky enough to have an order accepted and honoured.
