If you think you can do it Mark then go for it mate, I would have have one from you, no problem.

I think you have the bones of a great idea there Mark. The way I see it though, is that you set me off on an 18 month contract and that is me all set until I need to renew. I don't know anything about connection commissions but will you earn enough off of my one contract to make it worth your effort?

If you can offer a more specialised service geared towards rugged handsets then I can see you becoming very successful within the construction worker environment. I would much rather trust the advice of a rugged handset specialist rather than some spotty high street salesperson.

BTW I've recently had my second Nokia 6700 screen failure within 11 months. the handset was securely tucked away in the phone pocket on my work trousers, did not get knocked yet still cracked with no visible external damage (definite design fault, although Nokia refuse to admit it). If you want me to roadtest any handsets for you then I will be more than happy to oblige :smilewinkgrin:.

This is just an idea at the moment mate and it would be a while before I started it but I'm happy to give you some impartial advice when you need your new phone

Mark, You had anymore thoughts on this since getting all the feedback?

I think Captain Slow's suggestion of specialising in the latest rugged phones for building workers is worth looking into
