There's an added advantage of it being impossible to write a text message whilst driving, so that's one less thing I can get nicked for.
what next work you on out of interest..?

Orange. I'm not impressed by them tbh, their coverage of the UK is not a patch on 02's. The last time I had this much trouble getting a signal when passing somewhere major like Cambridge on the A14 was back in 1990. I spend a fair bit of my time using customer's landlines because I can't call the office on my phone, and this happens all over the place from Gloucester to Gt Yarmouth. If Orange don't sort their coverage out I'll be switching back to 02 when my contract expires.

You may already know this Lozzo but Orange and T-Mobile are merging so you can use both networks. It may help with your signal issues.

Thanks Scott. I already knew about that, but wasn't sure if the T-Mobile network was any better.

+1 on the desire.

Navigation is as good as Tom Tom and never had any issues with 3G and phonecalls

Only issue is battery life when GPS is on but there are bigger batteries in ebay.

The Desire kicks iphones asre.

It's not Orange so much as Orange's 3G network. They seem to have lots of probs with their masts too.

If you get many more probs, call customer services. They may know a work around. Their customer service has always been tops for me.

I had an htc years ago and loved it. The iPhone came out and I wasnt interested. The someone got me one as a gift from the US and I've had one ever since. The wildfire is the worst phone I've had the displeasure of trying to use (oh has one).

I've owned 3 apple products in my life and they're outstanding. Most impressive was a PowerBook that lasted 8 years. Sold it on with no issues and it never crashed the whole time I had it.

HTC 7 the windows phone? Probably be a very different exp to the Android sisters out there but im sure it will be ok, has to be really or MS are in trouble

People who mention the free satnav not being brilliant, ill just mention that yes needs coverage, but it is free and does work when the ****ty networks arnt letting us down... which is too often.

Oh and Orange suck Lozzo, they customised ROM (guess you got the orange version with their crap on) spoils the phone! I installed the stock ROM from HTC and the phone is just a million times better, it works all the time and has no ****ty little bugs like you mention. HTC need to put their foot down and tell the Networks to pi&s of and make us all use stock software!
