    If you like the N95, why not upgrade to N96

    I was planning to do that, but decided to get a cheaper phone + laptop,
    Only problem I had with N95 was it is a bit on the large size, but camera wise its brilliant

    1. Were you on commission?
    2. Would you buy it for yourself?
    3. How did it sell?
    4. How does it compare to other slides with good cameras?

    Really hate myself for saying this but.... iPhone.

    I've just replaced my knackered N95 on 02 with an iPhone and its fantastic. Yes, its got a few downsides (battery/size) but it ticks all the boxes for me.
    The O2 contract (£35/month) includes unlimited data so you can pick up your email/surf the net at will - and listen to your itunes library at the same time.

    Cue abuse...

    :)

    Not what I want it for tbh.

    Use phone for photos, vids, talk & text nowt more. Like MMS & iPhone doesn't do it & if I want to listen to music I do it as an activity not a background track to my life, so iPhone not for me, sorry
    The thought I could get emails wi out signing on horrifies me cos if someone wants me that urgent let em txt or fone.
    If the dont have my number there's a reason.

    Keep it then

    and get a discount on your current plan or more free minutes?

    I did that when i was with orange. They phoned me & said i was due an upgrade, said no thanks i'm happy with what i've got so they took money off my monthly bill.

    The £150.00 credit

    is tempting as its over 5 months bills but I am shockingly heavy on handsets & after 18 months its looking shabby & freezes occasionally.

    Pixon does look good and has got recommenations from a couple of independant consumer sites si pixon it is
