Need a new phone - which to choose

Hi everyone
I need a new phone as i currently have a really old samsung.
Ideally I would like a phone on which i can access the internet although I don't think I would be a heavy user.
Want the usual text and call features and ideally a camera
I am also going to the USA for 4 weeks and understand that with some WI-FI enabled phones if you use the email through a WI-FI connection, you don't get charged from your data allowance. Does anyone know if this is the case? Is this the case in the UK? If so, I would also like a WI=FI enabled phone.
does anyone know a good phone which I cna get and a reasonably priced contract. I would like around 300mins a month and about 500 texts. I'm on O2 at the mo and would like to stay with them but not sure if they will be too expensive!
any ideas welcome - I'm useless at this phone buying!

look at three, some great deals. for me its the best 3g coverage in the large areas i work in and also at home. o2 were by far the worst for me for 3g coverage.
consider htc wildfire or desire.
wifi does not come out of your data allowance whoever you are with, ,its totally seperate.
consider -

personally i have an iphone 4 and love it. expensive initial outlay, but i stopped smoking and treated myself. with 3 the iphone 4 is £69 for the phone, then £35 per month for 24 months. its the one plan which is excellent.
