Getting a contract - phone for my brother, sim for me!

However, I have a blackberry.

I'm currently on T-Mobile solo (sim only), I pay £25 a month for my Blackberry fee, unlimited texts, forgot how many minutes, 600 or something and unlimited internet.

I want to buy my brother a phone for christmas, I was thinking of buying one outright for £80-£100, as he recently had his one stolen (I would get it insured with my bank!)

I was wondering, does anyone know of a way I could save money on this?
E.g A £100 phone on a £20/month contract similar to mine, then I pay the £8 or so on top for my blackberry fee? Or cashback to amount to similar?

Thanks,
Joanne. :)
