I've never heard of them :confused: Is their network coverage good?
I believe O2 owns them, they sort of diversify their business via giff gaff as gg don't offer phones, don't have physical stores or customer service call centres - all is done on online forums (as I said perfect from my point of view, I suspect it will be a good choice for a hard core forum person like you, valda) and therefore they are able to offer really god payg deals.

Edit: My bad looks liek they use the O2 networks but are not owned by them, not that it makes any difference.

Edit 2: OH's coverage with them is much better than it was with orange.

aww I'm jealous Valda! I've been nagging my BF to check his next upgrade so I could have the Samsung Galaxy S II ! I played around with my friend's and he loves it and I only played with it for a few minutes and I thought what a great touch screen phone! I think it's because of Android really but it's so sleek and light! Hope you enjoy it!

I think I'll enjoy it but I really don't have a clue what I'm doing. Take Texts for instance. I've no idea if a reply has been sent, I don't think there's an in or outbox so I don't know what is what. My mate text me twice today, and each on came through 3 times :confused: I'll have to sit down and read the downloaded book back to back and see if any of it sticks in my bran]in :oops:

I need a new phone, was offered the Samsung Galaxy II as an upgrade, what's the camera like?

I want a phone with a really good camera, I have a N95 which was really good camera-wise when I first got it several years ago, but it is slowly dieing! I was going to upgrade to a Nokia N8 as it had a 12mp camera, but its been discontinued apparently. I was also offered a HTC with a 8mp camera but have read bad reviews on the camera.

The upgrade woman just kept trying to sell me an Iphone 4, which I am sure is a fantastic phone, but I hardly use my mobile to call, don't do many text, and just check my emails/FB when I am out.......however use the camera all the time.

Any suggestions?
Preferred Cinema's now Paignton or Exeter!

I believe the camera on the IPhone 4 is excellent ;)
