My Z600 fell into two parts after 3 years of service - I was sad to see it go. My GF's Balckberry just irritates the hell out of me, it cant seem to do anything more than my existing Sony.

I'm using the Blackberry Curve 8310, and its great.

I run x2 email accounts on it (work/personal), browse the internet, calls and text.

Got a good deal on O2, £30 a month, 800 mins, 1000 texts and unlimted intenet/email.

I really like my Z600 but it is a bit limited now .

O2 are offereing me the 8520 free of charge on £10 a month with 100txt and 75minutes ( which is enough for me ) and free inetrnet emails , but it is on a 2 year contract .

What you want is a Sony Z5. Damn that was a cool phone!

I do get on well with my Blackberry (8110) these days though.
You won't beat a Blackberry for e-mail, but see if you can have a go with one to check you like the keyboard.

Worth trying.

Yea, the keyboard is small, but its a phone at the end of the day! Handy that its a full qwerty keyboard though, and when you get the hang of it sending texts and emails is so much quicker that with a standard phone handset.

i had a blackberry and thought it was tosh, even as a phone it was awkward to use, as for email!!!!! It's very difficult to type something on a qwerty keyboard when the keys are the size of a gnats cock!!! It's a lot easier on normal phone keys with your thumbs. I use a sony V630i for email and it's easy to get on ebay and keep an eye on something when your in the pub!!

Works for me!

I want to upgrade from my Nokia v1415 to the Nokia N97 ... it's like the v1415 but upgraded

The slide out keyboard can piss pass any Blackberry keyboard any day of the week !!
