    Cheers guys. Very helpful

    Ger - seeing as you seem to know all about this stuff - what else should I be considering that I won't have to shell out anything for and has an approx 5mp camera? (Not bothered about web access etc).


    you on Pay and Go? You don't seem the type to be into the whole touchscreen thing either. Would I be right?


  2. Nah, I'm on contract, but just a cheap and cheerful £25 a month one, so some of the more 'premium' handsets are out of reach.

    Not bothered by touchscreen but doubt I'll like it compared to the touch?

    possibly. For cheaper touchscreens you are looking at resistive screens rather than the uber sensitive one on the touch.

    The 6600 mentioned above is a safe bet. If you are wanting a solid camera phone the Samsung G800 ticks all the boxes with its 5mp and Xenon Flash

  4. Courier is rushing the new phone to me as we speak. Ditching Nokia and Symbian to give Android a whirl

  5. N900 is one sexy phone. Wont buy it though, dont use my phone that much so its on the expensive side for me.

    N900 is just a test bed for the OS (Maemo5). The first Maemo 6 device will be about within 6 months. And the N900 is an 'internet device' first and a phone second.
  7. i know. I love that it is an open platform. As a developer it sounds very prommissing. A lot of existing linux ARM apps can be recompiled for maemo. I also expect a huge modcommunity
  8. nice one Ger, strange they bend it a bit though.
  9. You're switching phones like I'm switching underwear..(allright, come on with these counter-jokes)
