Too right - a short walk around Central will see many street vendors
desperate to sell you mobile phones.

Also, if your a frequent traveller to HK or short-term resident, you can
buy
second-hand unlocked mobiles at really cheap prices, especially in Mong
Kok/Nathan Rd areas, but *beware* and always ask to try these with a sim
card/check they actually work before buying. I've bought a few Nokia
6100's,
all working like a dream, and sold them on here in the UK.


Phone companies are practically at every street corner. We went to one
in
a
subway station. You can buy minutes without having to sign up for a
contract.
