I'm considering moving away from Orange... they used to be pretty good for new handsets, but lately they seem to be well behind on offering the shiny toys I want. They also keep putting their own firmware on them (Orange Homescreen), which is incredibly poor quality crap which destroys the UI, but I think most networks do similar these days from what I hear. Firmware flashing seems to be the way forward where that problem is concerned.
Anyway, I'm thinking Vodafone is probably the next network to check out for reliability and coverage (two things that I've never had a problem with on Orange). Unless anyone has either recent Vodafone horror stories to offer, or better networks to pimp?
I'm probably looking to get either a Nokia N95 8GB, or an N82 if anyone is offering those yet. I'll want a data package, quite a few texts per month, and a relatively low amount of minutes (use a phone to talk to people? What a strange idea!)
