Samsung S3650...

[Tension]

Get a Sony Ericsson w995.  Best mobile out there at the minute.  Don`t think you can get it on vodafone though.  (God knows why!)

You can get it on contract for free.  PAYG is about £400 though..

[Tension]

Sony Ericsson? Ewww. Even if it wasn't about 5 times over my budget... Just... No.

LOL why not?  I`ve used SE phones since i defected from Nokia in about 2003, and every one has been great!!

[Tension]

Found the user interface far too busy, the texting system to be extremely clunky, the controls awkward, the phones themselves seem to have been designed by the same folk who used to do Volvos - ie with a set square.

I much prefer the samsungs (or the sagems for that matter since they use the same OS as the low end samsungs).

This touchwiz interface though... Very very elegant, clean, responsive and logical. Can't really fault it.

Funny you should say that... i`m about to buy a Volvo 850...  maybe its just me!! :-)
