Just updated. Arrrrgh didn't realise it'd lose all my settings. Can't remember how to re-prettify it now! haha

Well it seems to be OK apart from when I click on Google Search or Web n Walk, which just seems to crash every single time. That makes the internet pretty much unusable. Lovely! :/

Ah, sorted

Looks like it might have resolved my dodgy wifi connection. Fingers crossed!!

Not moved across yet. Several apps I use pretty much daily aren't ICS compatible yet *sigh*

Don't really feel the need either. Happy on 2.3.5.

Yep, very pleased with it. Love the Swype updates too.

Just wish there was a way to stop text message text scrolling across the screen without cancelling notifications altogether. That's the most annoying thing about the phone

I'd rather have a phone that crashed in an eternal loop (although I should be careful what I wish for

) than use a Windows phone! I have very bad memories, but that was a fairly long time ago (HTC Touch HD, pre-iphone 3G)

Kate, I'm pretty sure you can, mine doesn't do that, I have it set to just show the message notification (that one's arrived) but it doesn't show the message.

I never used Windows Mobile 6 but still have a very old Windows Mobile 5? handset knocking around somewhere that put me off smartphones for quite a while. MS has really moved things on with Mobile 7.5, I'm not going to claim it's better than iOS or Android as 95% of the time they are much of a muchness but it does do a couple of things differently and once you get used to them it works very well.

Personally as a geek I'd rather have an Android phone, just not £400 over the next year and the hassle of carrying two handsets worth.

Understandable, I'm sure it's moved on leaps & bounds, I just hated the old setup, the back end was so boring & difficult to navigate.

Still, to save £35 a month, I'd probably learn to live with it.
