Slow as fuck, annoying to use, hard to do anything on it plus if you get one of those plastic things that should be covering the screen....

Probably going with HTC then, Apple doesn't deserve the money

my iphone handles flash & java and lets me code on the go, good enough for me. after reading a lot of the comments i realized that calling & texting were the things i do least on my phone, lol

Got a ten quid thing from ASDA that is made by Foxconn or someone, it also came with a tenners worth of credit!!! Got an iphone that is pretty much knackered and a samsung galaxy which i love.

all on payg, phone is off most of the time and i seldom carry it with me - i like to have one but i am not fussed if i don't. One of my worst habits is losing phones, had hundreds of the things and only ever bought one or two! I usually get mates' or my brothers' old contract phones when they get a new one. got the samsung galaxy for £60 off someone i barely know in a pub, not going to ask how he came by it - but it was boxed and still wrapped in it's protective film!

Did you have to buy a sim for the phone from asda? I've been in to phones4u and other places and they bloody list the price of the handsets for, say, £10 then when it comes to buying it they go "Oh yeah, you need to buy a sim that's another £10"

dickheads!

Nah came with it. I think I was probably supposed to top it up with twenty quid or something at the point of purchase but I only paid £10 for the handset and sim (preloaded with £10 credit).

I only ever use the phone when am out paintballing, at festivals or on my bike so it doesn't matter too much if I lose it.

I was actually more aggrieved by being forced to buy a sim at the same time as buying the handset, I just wanted the damn handset!

I did, and I downloaded some random apps from both installous and cydia that claimed that they'd get it working on ma shit but neither did, for some reason. :/
