Sick of my iphone

I have a 3G, bit fed up with it, I was looking at a HTC Legend, Would this be a good move? I know a new iPhone is being announced on Monday but I think I want a new challenge, Also how much would I get for a 3G in as new condition and its been in a Griffin case all its life?

    are you just generally wanting a change or not liking some(or absence of) features?

    The legend is great but would consider it not much of a change (you get little extra over an iphone despite having to give stuff up). The desire is a much better phone and is considered superior to the iphone and i believe the first phone ever where 9 out of 10 reviews or so say its better overall than the iphone.

    Hey nirelandguy, :)

    If you want a direct market rival comparison to the iPhone, you'd probably be looking at a HTC Desire. I can't really comment much on the Legend in all honesty, as I've never used one- but the Desire is certainly a phone many ex-iPhone users are choosing to replace their Apple handsets with.

    The Desire may be a slightly better phone statistically, but it depends entirely on your budget and personal opinion. The Legend is still a good phone.

    Hope this helps,

    Christian.

    Well I was always used to a radio on my phones, something the iPhone never had, and thats just for starters, I heard the desire is hard to see in sun light wihich puts me off it, plus what ever I get for my 3G I dont wanna be paying a whole lot more, Apart from the legend, I had actually thought of the Nokia X6, Ok its not great but it does more than my 8gb 3G and is a lot cheaper, I've reached the point of being sicked with my iPhone, its always behind other phones, I mean we have had front facing cameras etc for a nearly 10 years yet the 4G only gets it now, as an example,
