Well the time has come to make a decision on a shiny new phone and I'm pretty much sold on the HTC Desire and am thus looking at pricing info, which is starting to appear.
The best deal for me appears to be from T-Mobile at present, who are offering the handset on an 18-month contract for £129 with 300mins & 300texts plus "unlimited" internet for only £20 a month (I'd rather pay more up front in exchange for a lower monthly tarrif).
The internet component of this also seems to be a bit more "relaxed" than the other networks with a 3GB fair use limit, after which they say they'll still let you use the web & email but will just restrict downloading and streaming etc.
My question is, how good are T-Mobile? I've always considered them to be a somewhat "second class" network compared to the likes of Voda/O2/Orange but is this unfair? What experience have people here had with them in general and, in particular, their 3G coverage and performance?
Ta for any info :)
