Have your say & ask the experts

Contract is up.. Do I go for an Iphone(though I think its a bit on the expensive side)  I already have a 32 gig ipod touch so not that concerned about music capabilities. HTC Hero, Gets great reviews, motorola dext? 

I looking for a multimedia phone mainly for email, internet etc as well as phone calls lol. Any recommendations would be welcome. Only restriction is it has to be on Orange as I get free calls to my gf who is living in bristol atm (I'm in Glasgow).

Thats my main worry I think apple are takin the mickey a bit with the tarrifs. So expensive I also quite like the idea of using this new android OS.

I'm also on the look out for a new phone. IMO, the iPhone is overpriced. Another problem with it is that it's the only phone using the iPhone OS. It means if you invest a fair amount of dosh in apps for it, then you're then tied down to an iPhone in future unless you want to rebuy the apps on another OS. If you look at the Android for example, there's so many manufacturers using it now (Motorola, HTC, Samsung, SE, Acer) that when you upgrade your phone in the future you'll have way more options.

By the way of which phone to go for, it would seem HTC's next Android phone will be based on their new HD 2 (which I'd buy in a snap if it was Android and not Windows Mobile) so I'm gunna hang on for that. The Motorla Droid looks cool but I don't think anyone's carrying it in the UK...

i have a htc for work and its the worse phone ive ever had i dont find it very nice to use

i would love an iphone i also have a touch wich i love but i havent looked at the contracts thay come with not worth getting a phoneif you cant use it
