Phone prices
Just phoned o2 as my iPhone 3g contract has run out. They want £200 for a 4g which is balls. So for free I was think to get a 3gs or blackberry. Can't justify paying hundreds for a phone. What Phoenix would you suggest

Windows phone 7 is out this week, really slick OS from what I've read and it has the muscle of microsoft behind it linking it to Xbox live and so on, could be a good bet.
I have an iphone 3gs, it has its faults but for the quality and variety of applications for it you cant go wrong.

Just say you're leaving to find a better contract, theyll soon find a way of giving it you for free.

I love my iphone 4, great smartphone to start me off.
But Id love to try out the Nokia N8 and the Blackberry Torch.
A guy at work has a BB torch and its such a solid build, no cheap plastics like the samsung galaxy.
The galaxy is a great phone but it feels cheap, which is a real let down as its a great piece of tech.
Imo avoid an iphone 4 because you wont notice a huge difference from your 3G. The fun of a new phone is exploring all the features. Unless you have mates who have a iphone 4 for facetime 
Rumours of the white iphone 5 due for release around January as well.
Head down to a phone shop and play with the recent models
