    Do you want it on a contract or sim-free?

    If sim-free then ebay is your best bet.

    BTW I know nothing about the HTC Touch, but I have a HTC Artemis and the camera is terrible....
  • Definitely NOT on contract. I'll mention that the Artemis is a no no thanks

    Orange do the 2G Touch for £149, the N95 is on 3 payg for £350

    the touch is a good phone but not 3g
    SO... now England its the Scots turn to say dont leave the UK, stay in Europe with us in the UK, dont let the tories fool you like they did us with empty lies... You will be leaving the UK aswell as Europe ;)

    I should clarify my comment above, even though the Artemis (O2 XDA Orbit) has a terrible camera on it, it is however the best phone/pda that I have ever owned.

    It has GPS, Wi-Fi, Phone and PDA all in one, everything I need.
  • I have always been a Sony Ericsson and HTC fan for aslong asi can remeber. I have the HTC Tytn 11 and it is the best phone / PDA by a mile. It doeseverything the Nokia can do but better. The HTC have come along way since theyfirst started out and i would say that the HTC will be far better than the Nokia. The HTC will offer alot more in the way of what it can do.

    Make sure if you do get the HTC that you have it covered by some form of insurance. I do not take out insurance by the networks but for my HTC i have taken it.

    I agree with you Chris, (on the whole) the HTC devices beat the N95 at everything except for camera....
