I've gone from P800>P901>P910 and now its time for the next one.

Should I be looking somewhere other than the P990 ?

Not bothered about 3G, but do like the tought of being able to bang it on a car cradle and play mp3's through the ICE.

1Mp camera minimum.

Prefer MS Duo Pro card.

Not @rsed about video.

Also considering the W900, but are there any others I should be looking at ?

if you like having the extra applications that a smart phone offers then i recon you should take a look at the imate (same as XDA, MDA, etc etc) phones.

Remember looking at the iMate gear year or 2 ago, and not been back to em since.

They have certainly come on a bit. How do the SPV units compare ?

Signed up to Vfone.

£25/month:

Free W900, 200min anytime Xnet but more interestingly this as well....

250 free texts where;

1 sms = 1 text
1 mms = 3 text
more oddly 1Meg = approx 20 texts.

Then they couldn't authorise the account as I already have a PAYG sim in my laptop GPRS card.

Walked away gutted and very confused.

So still looking.

Finally deal done.

Managed to sort Vodafone out and got it on the above tariff for a tenner.

Didn't mind paying that for the phone as they gave me the first 3 month half price after all the messing.

Anybody beat that deal without all those poxy cash back deals ?

You've only to have one set of paperwork go AWOL and you're behind on the deal.

They also hold onto your money for an awful long time.

Thats without getting all cynical and asking what happens if the company vanish after 3 months.

Then on top of all that there is of course me being a forgetful old @rse
