Help to find new contract with free iphone or similar ...please

I need help please... Im looking for a contract phone, any length time, but want a free iphone or similar android phone to access web for the lowest poss monthly price. At the moment I'm on o2 600 mins 400 text and free mms and video messages (as very old contract i havent upgraded for 6 years!) for £15 per month... (the reason i havent upgraded as so cheap and i believe mms are no longer free?) Does anyone know of any good deals or good sites for me to go to? My mind is boggled by them all :o

    I've just taken out an iphone 4 16g contract with 3, I think it's called the one plan 2000 any network mins, 5000 texts, loads of 3 to 3 minutes and unlimited internet so you could lose your broadband connection and tether this if you don't use torrents. £35 quid a month for 2 years with 69 quid for the phone but I would imagine a 3g iphone would be free. No issues with signal for me its been as good as my orange so far.

    If your contract does you, why not buy a sim free phone, expensive up front cost, but could save you money in the long run.
  • I'd second the above; save up the cash for a 2nd hand IPhone or Android handset and you're good to go! Or even a brand new Orange San Fransisco for £100 if you're after a very nice entry level smartphone :)

    Lowest cost Orange sanfransisco
    Highest cost IPhone 4

    Best value for money HTC Desire or Samsung Galaxy S.
