Hi,
I just got the HTC Magic from Vodaphone.
Its got great internet features and its a touch screen !!!
Check out reviews on phones. Try the carphone warehouse site is a good one to try.
Now... what happens when I press this button.. !!!!

Never owned either but i have seen and heard stories of blackberries scroll wheel failing, especially if you are on site a lot with dust and grit.

The iPhone however, is the one to have by all accounts.

Me? Im sticking with my trusty Nokia

I have a Nokia 5800 which some sites call the iPhone killer.

i've tried a few smartphones before with touch screens and they were all a mare, too clever for their own good and kept crashing all the time, always a dissapointment. until i got the iphone its not let me down in any way at all, best phone ive ever had. i'm no longer looking around to see what new phones might be better. and the apps...

The iphone is finally going to be on Vodafone late dec/jan finally might get a free upgrade worth having!

 

[patricklondon]

exact timings i dont know but you're right. the only downside is the sometimes lack of signal strength. as soon as my contract with o2 is over i will be jumping ship back to vodaphone, i've been with orange and they are not as good imo.

 

[pennywise]

Orange used to be amazing but they've gone really downhill with the signal coverage, I've have now learnt if you don't get through to someone on orange first time try again immediately afterwards and you get through.

I have a blackberry 8100 pearl. had it for 3 months and track ball appears to be giving up the ghost already. Will have to hang on till the i phone is out on vodafone

g1 on t mobile, superb phone, full internet, touch screen or a pullout qwerty keyboard

 

[pennywise]

iphone is out on the 14th of Jan on Vodafone, £75 a month to get it free on a 24 Month contract or £89 for the handset on a 18 month contract.

Ive had the bb bold for about a year now and couldnt do without it.Ive not had any problems at all with it.However the Mrs has got the Iphone and personally i think the bb is a better allround as an engineers phone. Im not a massive fan off touch screen phones any way.

 

[Mr Mark Sparks]

its just like a mini laptop in your pocket
no silly gimicks seems robust

25 quid a month 600min unlim text unlim internet and web mail free handset 24mth contract on voda

Dont forget to keep the scroll wheel working by squirting WD40 in it daily.
