    Just dragged myself into the smart phone market.
    It came with quite a few apps installed , just after a few pointers as to what Apps are essential ?

    Which ones do you find invaluable , do any Apps save you money etc etc,,,

    Thanks in advance ... :)

    Now that I have become a tablet owner/user and I'm having a bit of trouble with my mobile, I too am wondering if I should take that last step and join the smart phone brigade.

    The thing is, my mobile tariff is decidedly low, less than £20 per month, (120mins, 200 texts and ? mb which I have never used, simply because i am afraid of any incurring costs as I don't know what my mb allowance would stretch to).

    So, could a smart phone be bought cheap? Could I continue with a low monthly tariff?

    Yes to both questions, all depends on your budget as to what phone you buy sim free.
