30 day rolling contracts

I've been out of contract for a couple months with Orange. I usually have a bill of about £50 per month. I think Im on about 600 mins a month and unlimited texts. I also have a bolt on for internet.
I was going to get an iPhone as my iPod has bitten the dust. It could have doubled up as phone and music player. However, my wife has one and I don't know if the battery life is what I need. I use the phone as my work mobile. It get s a lot of use and if I use it as music player as well, I don't know if the battery would hold out. Also, getting a 32gb 3GS will cost over a couple hundred up front. For that I could buy a 64GB iPod Touch which is more like the size of music player I would need given how much music I have. It does everything the iPhone does bar the actual phone bit.
For the phone I was looking at doing one of those 30 day rolling contracts that seem good value.
1. Do Orange do these sort of deals?
2. What should I expect to get?
3. Do any come with internet deals?
4. Can you keep your own number?
Would need a new phone too. Have had Sony Ericssons the last while and like them. Any cheap ones that do 3G stuff? Don't need any fancy Internet, if I could use the Orange home site say to check sports scores and get into email account that'd be fine.
Cheers.

Can I just point out that the deals you will get will be far superior to the current deal you have with you full contract. By not taking a new mobile phone, they will use this to offer you a much improved deal.0
