Will be needing a new phone shortly as my contract ends, and was hoping for some advice from any of you mobile experts (if there are any).
I'm thinking of going with T-Mobile as I know a few of the staff there and they'll help me out a bit.. But I'm not sure on the handset. I've been reccomended Sony Ericsson C902 which is supposed to be quite handy and a Samsung Tocco which is one of these new touchscreen ones.
I really don't have a clue, so help would be appreciated!

Ha ha!! Are their any decent mobile recently released or do they come out nearer Christmas these days. I'm still happy with my N95 8gb, had no problems with it at all **touches wood**. But it's not that new anymore must be newer phones out. |

if you need a laptop go for orange or 3; £35 for 700mins and 3,000 texts plus a free computer.

I got an iphone 16gb last week and although it's a bit big it's a good gadget and I'm liking it so far.

I have a Sony Ericsson and won't get one again. It has a habit of turning itself off and the operating system is frustratingly sluggish.

I had a K800i and it was bloody good. Took loads of abuse and just didn't break or anything (except the back cover kept coming loose towards the end of its life). However the K850 is awful. It's so bloody slow it reminds me of my old (cheap) O2 pay as you go phone I got to replace another phone which was showing its age. The cameras good if the viewfinder opens. I sometimes have to shake it to get it to work. |

That's the one I've got as well. On my third handset now and still got 6 months left on the pissing contract.
Shame though because the memory sticks are really neat, 4gb one is no bigger than a finger nail.

Have you had a mooch at the Apps. store yet? There's a handy little free one called AroundMe that finds your location and lists local petrol stations, restaurants, hotels, cafes, pubs etc.. Probably quite handy if you're pissed and lost as it will direct you to the nearest pub. I love my iPhone. |
