The LG is seriously bad.

Don't rely on the alarm on the new Sony C902!!

good camera though!

Iphone - Texting is amazingly good, with error correction and predictive messaging meaning you can type super fast without bothering to be anything like accurate. (although you can't send MMS messages which is rubbish), camera - rubbish, with no video facillity.

Once you get used to it, with my fingers I was pressing the wrong buttons

C902 one of the worst phones i've had. Freezes all the time, turns off and also alarm problems. I know a few people with the same phone and most have had problems.

I've heard the software update sorts it out - but I've not done that yet.

Ericson C905? 8.1mp camera, proper flash etc.

If you get a Sony Ericsson, make sure the camera is a Cyber Shot, not just a regular SE phone camera. They are absolutely outstanding, even at 3.2MP, but a world apart form regular SE-installed cameras.

That's the great thing about them, If I'm typing a long word, I'll probably end up pressing wrong letters 50% of the time but it still knows what word it's supposed to be. So I just type realy quickly and don't care if it's accurate or not, as long as my fingers are almost near the letter - hence superfast texting.
The key is to not care about accuracy, if you do you'll spend ages trying to get it right when theres no need.

Cheers Matt - I might just do that, the update download doesnt work from Apple laptops so I'm a bit scuppered!

I must say I thought that was true but the one in my k850i is total rubbish in any other than daylight.

Iphone is great except for two things, camera is very average and no MMS (but you can email pictures). Very user friendly and has some great features.

Oh one of the buttons did fall off after a month, which wasn't so great.
