  • Get an Orange San Francisco and unlock it. You'll then have a decent phone and an extra £300 in your pocket that you didn't have before.

  • Definitely go for the HTC Desire, HD would be better but I have the standard version and it does fine for me and I use it a lot!

    I previously had an iPhone and fancied a change because everyone else had one, at first the apps were nowhere near as good but the gap between iOS and Android is closing fast.
  • There are no doubts in my mind that HTC is and should be the way forward as the iOS and all things 'Apple' have, if anything, been oversold, and over-rated.

    It all comes down to, I believe, user friendliness, empowering the user, and interoperability.

    The homescreens on an Android allows you gadgets interaction. On the other hand, the iPhone, are just sitting icons linking to your paid-for applications and does nothing else.

    Cheers!

    Much as I love my San Francisco, I don't really think it fits the requirement for a good camera.
    Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks
    On a rotating plate, with spikes like Flash Gordon
    And you're Peter Duncan; I gave you fair warning

    Hmm, didn't read the full post, I'm afraid. Apologies to the OP. :(
