    I really really wanted an iphone but just could not jusify the cost. Went for a free upgrade nokia 5800 in the end which is probably not as good but I really like it. Its runs all the apps i want, is great for emails & text and has free music too, give it a try.

    im sorry i havent read this whole thread i havent got time but DO NOT GET A IPHONE!!! i have worked in the mobile phone biz for 3 years and the iphone is a never ending stream of problems. orange had to open a whole new department on lanch only for iphone faults. (lol i might not be alowed to tell you that) the worst problem being coma mode. i think you should try you get a n96 (make sure u have unllimted internet tho) it is the best phone i have worked with so far and it has bbc iplayer so u can catch up on doctor who lol. also order ur phone from the website if u can 7 day long distance selling act applys if u dont like it, its tuff if you get it from a store.
    any one thinking of getting a iphone google 'coma mode' i hope i have helped
    N96? seriuosly? that is one of the worse nokia's ever made. they pretty much admitted that by bringing out the n97 and n86 so soon after. they sell for less than the first n95 on ebay they are so bad.


    iphone is the best phone i have ever had, please note most people saying they are not have not got one. they are much more than a phone. i went though all the main phones before i got this. google,htc,nokia etc etc iphone is a cut above. the camera could be better and the battery sucks up power but then anything would when used as much as i use mine.
    If i upset you don't stress, never forget that god aint finished with me yet.
