Camera quality & Orange Contract

HI, I recently lost my fantastic Sony Ericsson K800i - I didn't want another phone, and was totally happy with it. So I phoned orange and although I was on PAYG they offered me a free Sony Ericsson w705 on contract. I sent the phone back as it was faulty (the slide was very wobbly and it kept telling me there was something wrong with my sim and that the memory was full and that I had to delete files). Had it not been faulty I would have sent it back anyway as the camera was really disappointing compared to my k800i. I've been doing some research and it looks like there is no phone comparable to the amazing k800i around. I can't believe it. I had my phone for 3 years! Surely things must have moved on? Anyway I am left with the brilliant choice of LG GT505, Sony Ericsson w705, Nokia 6700 - or if I pay £5 more the Nokia 5800 or LG Arena K900. I've driven myself mad trying to work out which one to choose. Does anyone have any idea which would be the best (especially as I am so spoiled now that I have known the K800i)? Also can I get out of my contract with Orange? If the phones are all so dreadful maybe I should go elsewhere. Or maybe I should take a phone, sell it as new and buy a second hand k800i?? please save me from myself.
Thanks

    Surely if you could get a 5800 or an LG Arena, they'd also offer a SE W995? Worth enquiring I think
  • AS far as I know the w995 is a whole £10 more p/month. More than I really want to spend. Definitely worth asking tomorrow though.
