1. check your spelling

Select you mobile from the list below


2. I thought Ooooh! I was just thinking about buying a new headset/case so I used it as though I was going to.

The specific mobiles bit would be a lot better with the Manufacturers name as a header and then all the model numbers underneath rather than keep repeating Motorola, Motorola. Make the page smaller too.

Some of your pics are too small, for example I rather liked the look of the Madonna style personal handsfree but when I went to take a closer look, the thumbnail took me to another thumbnail, found several others like that too.

Otherwise, pretty clear if a bit packed and seems to load fairly fast

Just seems a bit bland to me, it's missing something and I can't put my finger on it

I find the blinking "Resellers Click Here" gif on the right to be very annoying, especially with the scrolling announcement on top. That blinking gif is kind of like a kid in class waving his hand and jumping up and down. As a buyer, I wouldn't spend much time looking at your site, I'd just escape and go somewhere else that wasn't blinking at me.

I would make your body and outside divs a different color than your center div to add some visual interest. you might want to add some texture to it, so that it's not so flat. I agree with Dan, it needs some "zip" to it, but not a whole lot, and not the "blinking variety."

Don't mate the messenger for this!

If I was you I would use somethnig like OsCommerce. It would be perfect for this type of shopping cart. Then you would most likely have to change the server, but it is still very very nice.

it could use some color (not pink - what is up with you two?). It seems to primarily use a lot of blue and black and even the pics are black. It almost needs a different colored bg on the navigation bar on the left or across the top. it doesn't grab me, so i wouldn't feel inclined to stay.

In Firefox the top horizontal navigation doesn't work (The drop down boxes are two small and empty) Also the horizontal line that is supposed to be below the horizontal navs is on top of them.

You need to test in a compliant browser like Mozilla Firefox and make another style sheet for the non-compliant IE. This link tells you how to do it http://www.frontpagewebmaster.com/m-154705/mpage-1/key-Mozilla%252Cstyle%252Csheets//tm.htm#155712

Ooooooh yes! That's an interesting effect. I only have access to IE6 at work so I missed that earlier.
