Default any good new phones on the market?

my contract is due for renewal in around a couple of weeks time, for the past 18 months ive had the nokia 8600 luna which i have found to be a brilliant hardwaring phone. I normally scratch the screens soo bad withing a month i can hardly read txts etc but this is still great to this day. Anyone got any ideas what to replace it with? im on orange and have a 1000 any network any time mins/unlimited txt if anyone knows of a better deal on orange then please suggest? cheers

maria the luna is great, well for me atleast as im always on building sites so get phones damaged easily, i dont think a n95 would last 5 mins with me. I think i want a stainless steel phone again though

I've always been a Nokia user until recently. I had the N95 just before xmas and it was wasted on me. Now got a Sony Ericsson walkman thingy and its pretty good, well for me anyway
Oh and 1200 minutes, unlimted texts and something else as well that I can't remember. It costs me Ł24 a month on O2.

Just got this phone, great phone and features. Have a look at mine Paul, though it will feel really cheap compared to your current phone.
