Default New phone, what to get?

As above, lost my phone last night so going to be getting a new one tomorrow but unsure on what to get as dont know whats hot at the moment.

Cant get an iPhone cause am on Vodafone.

Was looking at the new BlackBerry though, looks the muts nuts! Basically Blackberry's iPhone.

Anything else on the market thats worth considering? N96? Etc..

Any adivce appreciated.

Hmm, worth a thought. My dad has a N95 and my mate has a N95 8gig and both happy with them so the N96 does sound good.

Anything else to consider?

no, the other ones like blackberry or iphone all come with downfalls, while the n95/6 doesnt really, it does everything you'd expect plus more, and it does them all well

No i dont

Iphone cant send mms messages, also Apple tend to tell you what you can and cant do or can and cant download, where as with the nokia's you CAN do whatever you like really, its so customizable, and blackberry last time it was posted on here several people said they didnt like it for whatever reason.



Im only presenting the facts, sorry if it sounds like im biased

I used to be a Ericsson fan until i got sent a C902 by Three as an upgrade but i was very dissapointed, the screen was abit dim and it restarted nearly once a day, normally when i was in the middle of using it, needless to say it got sent back

Not saying there all like that but my faith has been dented.
