Where's the best Orange deal?

I'm looking for an Orange contract phone. My requirements are as follows:
Broadband Qualification: I want to qualify for the Orange Free Broadband deal.
£1 a day surfing: I want to take advantage of the £1 a day web surfing that they offer. Does that mean that I need HSDPA or 3G compatibility (Is HSDPA coverage national?). I also need bluetooth so that I can use my desktop
Sat Nav: I am looking at getting sat nav, probably TomTom. This isn't a necessary requirement as I could get a separate PDA but something that will be useful if not too expensive
Bundled calls/text etc: Not really interested. I will take them if part of the deal but do have another phone anyway
Any suggestions?

Looks like the Orange £1 deal is only GPRS...that narrows the questions down a bit!0

No £1.50 a day max charge for using Orangeworld, via handset or linked to laptop/pc on contract, so average £45 a month
GPRS is 2G or 3G, 3G is just 5 times faster than 2G both are the same price
2550 x net mins & unlimited texts £32, unlimited broadband £5, off peak mobile broadband £5
costs me £42 a month
If I helped or saved you money - Thank me
If I helped you spend some money - spank me
If I done both - :lipsrseal me:eek:
