When I upgraded my phone I decided against the Iphone - too many problems with them as far as I'm concerned! I decided not to follow the crowd and have an Android phone instead, which as far as I'm concerned is just as good, and was a lot cheaper!

I know several people who have the android phone and they seem happy with it.

I didn't pay for my phone and it's two years old in June (can't wait for an upgrade)and dare I say been no problems to date. I think it will be another iphone for me but I will take a look around first, my friend just got an android for Christmas and likes that. There is an android equivalent of the ipad too which I've looked at in Toys r us. x

I always do free when I upgrade! I can't do it until June but I'm looking at one or two phones at the moment.

I didn't want the Iphone 4 after all the problems with it - everyone I know who's happy with theirs has the original Iphone.

Also I've got an Ipod so I didn't really see the point as I wouldn't have got rid of that!

I was looking at the Samsung Galaxy Tab the other day and I have to say I'm impressed, although as I have a laptop, a phone, an ereader and an Ipod I've no idea what I'd use it for!

I saw one of those when we replaced the laptop a couple of weeks ago and it did look good. I'll stick with my normal mobile and a laptop though for the time being!

Just gadgets Skippy I love gadgets lol. I do have the original iphone, son has the iphone 4. My phone is wasted for music as I only have 3 songs on it which were free! Daughter does take the mickey saying you going to put them on shuffle Mum? I have no interest in music that's my problem so that part of the phone is wasted but I love playing scrabble etc., on the go and bejewelled and FB!
June for me too Jan, can't wait as mine is a bit scratched but that's my own fault I let the grandchildren play with it!

I have daughters old ipod for my music, which I play in the car. Never ever play games on the computer or my phone.

I can't wait - two years is a long time for an upgrade and my battery is getting a bit stuffed now!

I sometimes wish I didn't Jan as I'm competitive and get addicted easily to simple games. x

Not me I'm happy with Sky and until such a time I want to cancel I wouldn't do it and if I'd made my mind up to cancel then I think I'd insist they did it and wouldn't take up the offer of 6 months half price etc., x

Anomalous -- I did and got half price for 6 months. But, as said before, I actually wanted to cancel and they talked me out of it with the half price offer. The reason I wanted to cancel was purely to try to cut corners pre-IVA. However, the 6 month at half price carried me up to IVA. Now I am here I will keep Sky (Star Trek and Stargate nut --- need sky to get it!).

As has been mentioned before the TV, broadband and phone package is hard to beat. I just wish they would move into the mobile phone industry!
