I'm thinking of buying a Tocco or similar using my current contract sim in it but adding the data bundle on for web surfing (£5 a month).
1. Will all the features work ok with my contract sim or will I have to ring and say I'm using a different phone for them to enable it?
2. Is 500MB per month a decent amount of mobile web? I have no idea if thats a lot or not.
3. Samsung Tocco seems along the lines of what I would like. Touchscreen, looks good, slim, decent size screen.
Is there is a new one coming out soon that its worth waiting for or any similar phones that have the features I am after? Has to be unlocked for using it on Orange.
4. Cheapest but reputable place to buy the phone!

Just thought of another thing. I have phone insurance so guessing I could cancel that cos it wont cover whichever new phone I buy?

Is the Ultra Tocco a replacement for the Tocco or just another model to run alongside it?
Dont like the look of the Pixon plus its not as thin as the Tocco. Ultra Tocco isn't as thin either

replacement. it wasnt going to be called tocco, but because the f480 tocco was so popular, they are keeping the name.
tbh, having used one, its actually pretty good. camera is same as in the Pixon but with a shorter lense, so only difference is when using 10x digital zoom, the tocco ultra isnt as sharp as the pixon.

Im not really interested in cameras on phones.
I might still buy the original Tocco. It looks nicer to me, its thinner & I'm not fussed about the better camera on the Ultra or the slide out keypad

I've bought from that site. Very good Value for money and reliable.
The tocco has no wifi and no gps byw.
Have you though about the LG Viewty?
5mp camera
wifi etc

Can get cashback if I go through quidco too.
I dont really need wifi if I get the data bundle added on do I? I'll have a look at the Viewty now. I've got an LG KF600 at the moment, it was good to start with but it seems to have a mind of its own sometimes.
