Your TV was about to become a portal to hell, hence why it shut itself off.

Robbo, seriously its still a blackberry and looks like one dispite its touch screen and new design, if you got it out your pocket down the pub, at a football match etc you would look like McLovin from superbad.

I'm actually seriousl thinking of changing from O2 to Voda for this handset at the end of my contract partly because I love my current Blackberry 8800 but mainly because I've been told Voda will offer far better tarriffs for it than the ones available for iPhone

So if I were to go with the tarriff available on your site for the Bold which is £35/Month for 700 min 250 text and unlimited internet and email would I be likely to get the handset for free do you know?

Interface looks good to me (a non technological buff). Size not so good.

   A little shorter but a ,little thicker IIRC 
 
Held one last week again and it didnt feel too heavy, IMO they are all too big to be real phones but they arent too heavy etc
