Can anyone help me choose a new contract?

Hi guys, I'm looking for a new contract as O2 couldn't offer anywhere near what I want. I'd like the Nokia 5800, some minutes/texts and unlimited internet for £20 p/m over 18 months.

The best I've seen are

Vodafone, 100 mins, 500 texts, unlimited internet, 5800 free for £20 p/m over 24 months.

T-mobile, 200 mins, 200 texts, unlimited internet, 5800 free for £23 p/m over 18 months.

Are there any better deals around? I'd prefer not to have to bother with redemption.

Also if I rang Vodafone/T-mobile direct would I be able to negotiate anything better?

    Get an Orange PayG sim, top it up with 5 or 10 pound, and ask Orange what deals they are offering to covert it to pay monthly. They are offering good incentives. I got my sister the following by doing the same just last week...

    Nokia 5800 for free, 400 minutes, unlimited texts, orange numbers for £14.67/m on 24 month contract, plus 2 months of free internet (£5/m thereafter).

    You could probably get the same deal, or for 18 months get the above but with 200 minutes instead of 400. Just add approx 5 pound extra for mobile internet.
    Try to imagine nothing ever existed...
