My current phone (N95) is up for re-newal and am struggling what to go for. any help please?

1. Blackburry 8900 o2 offered be a deal of £35 per month/18mths 600mins, 1000 txs and unlimited internet. - never had a blackburry this one any good?

2. N97 Mini - obvious choice from my N95 although is coming in at £45 per mth/18mths with 1000mins, unlimited tx/internet. -

3. HTC HD2 - seems awesome although not seen it anywhere/cost etc.

anyone make any helpful suggestions... especially with the blackburry/HTC - otherwise N95 it will be.

thanks

    Have you looked at the hero.

    Do a bit of research on wm6.5 and the HD2. If you like the sounds of it i would go for that.

    Vodafone have it on their site but worth calling either T-Mobile, Vodafone or o2. All which will be selling it.

    Personally I would stay clear of the N97.

    thanks,

    i have heard a few people to stay clear of N97 - does that include the mini? (p4u have it on good offer at the mo).

    I'm guessing the HD2 is going to cost a fair bit! will reasearch the wm6.5 now!

    I second HTC Hero.

    N97 - too many issues
    Blackberry - proprietary operating system, not many apps
    HD2 - Windows Mobile OS - not the best
    Happiness is buying an item and then not checking its price after a month to discover it was reduced further.

    do you think the issues will be on the N97mini?

    Will look into the hero... Must say after udgrading around 18mths ago it seems a lot tighter to get any sort of deal this time round!

    with o2 at the mo and for ease want to stay with them although don't mind going with Orange as reception is good where i live
