Mobile Phone insurance?

Hi
I have just got a new Blackberry Pearl 8111 and for once I want to insure as it is expensive to buy new. I don't fancy paying o2/Carphone Warehouses's huge premiums so would like to know if anyone out there can recommend a decent insurer. (I have checked my bank a/c-no go and home insurance- too £££).
I found CUSC online but have never heard of them. Any advice?

THANKS

    I'm just getting a new phone, and was sure I would find some advice on here about insurance, but nothing. I tried this one:
    http://www.insure-your-mobile.co.uk/
    which was recommended on here but they wanted to charge me even more than 3 (the phone company I'm with) as the Nokia N95 8gb is such an expensive phone.

    Does no one have any better ideas?
  • Hi jennimoo thanks for replying.
    In the end I went with O2!!! It was still better value than getting a premium bank account or putting it on my home insurance. CUSC had too many clauses ie had to be forcibly mugged to claim in some situations!
