I love it that wherever there's a story about an exploding iPhone, there's an ad for the BlackBerry Storm!  :)x

That reminds me.  I need a triband PAYG phone that works on Orange.  Will I have to have a new simcard?

You'll need to get a phone that fits in a suitcase first!  ;D  Most phones are triband now, but I guess it depends how old your sim card is.  Your best bet is probably to pop into an Orange shop and ask them.

Oh right!  I've just discovered that is the reason my phone won't work in the US.   :blush:

I can't remember if I've posted this here or not, but it's quite funny...

Brilliant!  I will avoid iPhones and Blackberries.
