So, what mobile phone are you guys and gals rocking at the moment?
I've got an N95 and it's shite. Still got 6 months of an 18 month contract left - ouch.
Thinking of dropping my contract price down to a minimum and just getting something else, on a 12 month contract. With all the deals going these days, I could run two (for 6 months until my N95 contract runs out) for less that I'm currently paying, then fuck off the N95 on eBay and stick with the new one...
So... what are you guys using? What can you recommend? Or is that a silly idea and should I just be patient?
Thanks team!

Phone.
I thought I'd make use of all the features of the N95, but in reality just don't... wifi... gps... pretend 5mp camera... pfft.
I speak to people, send txt messages and take blurry pictures on drunken nights out... that's about it.
Got an iPod touch so my mobile wifi web and email needs are more than covered with that.

I've never been bothered to get a decent phone although if (when) they bring out a 3G iPhone I may be tempted to finally replace my girly Moto RAZR and get one of those.

In reply to Ians comment about the Sony k850i being wee and fiddly -
In previous phones I have often found it hard to use the buttons as I end up pressing more than one at the same time, alot of sony ericssons have stupid buttons like this.
But the k850i is great, the buttons are quite small but spaced apart so are easy to press, its actually not small and fiddly at all

I had no idea it was the "james bond edition" when I got my contract, I swear.
I really like it, heavy and chunky enough to feel like a real object and the camera is pretty good. The lens cover on the camera is utter shite though and keeps opening in my pocket, meaning that inevitably the lens will get fucked

ps - the first day i got my k850i TWO friends dropped the damn thing, one on concrete and the other on wooden floor boards, and since then ive dropped it on concrete a few times and it still works perfectly and only has very slight scratches on the corners - its actually a damn tough phone

Was alternating between a Nokia N90 and a Sony Ericcson K800i (i do a lot of photoblogging) - but just got an iPhone and the damn thing owns my life now.

I'm quite liking the look of the K850i... seems ok. Read a few reviews and the general consensus is that the camera is awesome, the buttons are small and the 'soft keys' on the top are fiddly/unreliable...
Any thoughts on that Hench?
Ps. I've got quite small (read: I'm not a boxer) size hands for a guy, not sure small buttons will be a problem?
- I have enormous spades for hands and play that keypad like a fiddlekelpie

I've got a sony ericcsson w850i, and it's great for me apart from a few annoying things:
-Unlocking the phone can be done by hitting the two more buttons (easy to do in your pocket)
-Accidentally turning on the mp3 player mode when somewhere quiet, or when trying to do something else (button placement)
