Default Phone up grade today. Any ideas?

As the subject suggests. New phone needed but not really been paying attention. Im on orange and wouldnt mind staying there so an I-phone is out the question as im sure they couldnt match what i have already

Cheers

The new Nokia 5800 is pretty good as an alternative to the Iphone, lots of cool App's available and it's great as an Mp3 player!

Lee, I have an itouch so im not that fussed about the phone itself. Maybe where they are a bit cheaper, or the bill wont take funds from the house saving

It's got GPS, bluetooth, decent camera, google os so there will be loads of upgrades and new functions coming out. Not sure about the curved bottom bit but it looks pretty smart: http://www.htc.com/www/product/hero/specification.html

My mate works at Vodafone and brings home different phones every couple of weeks - I was having a play with the 5800 all afternoon Saturday and really liked it.

Definitely the best "Alternative" to an Iphone that i've seen.... Lee has the HTC Magic i believe and that seems pretty cool too though to be honest.

Why not just go down the local shop and have a play?

No contest, iPhone all the way. I've had loads of different phones in the past, but they don't even remotely compare to the iPhone. I pay 35 a month and get unlimited free texts including mms, unlimited data, 300 mind free calls to any number, and unlimited calls to 10 landlines of my choosing.

Lee, how the hell are you spending 300 a month, that's just ridiculous and surely virtually impossible given the free minutes you get on any iPhone contract

Oh yeah, 5800 is ok as far as phones go but doesn't even do 1/10th of what an iPhone can. My wife has the 5800 and wishes she got an iPhone instead. Only benefit of the 5800 is that it's cheaper

If you get an iPhone you can get Worms to play on it - best game ever!
