ACN has some of the best mobiles and plans on the market.... the caps are huge plus they all include extra free calling. You can take out a stand-alone plan witha 6-month minimum contract, or get a free phone with a 24 month contract. The plans start at $19 with $50 credit and 20 mins free talk time; going up to $179 with $1500 credit and free talk time.

Previously I have also used a LG phone with 3 mobile, their 3G phones are quite good! I haven't had any difficulty using that phone.

I changed over to a LG chocolate phone. Its a beauty. I have not had any trouble with this phone and it is very stylish. Only thing is that it may take a while to get used to the delicate touch pad as all it needs is the lightest touch. Be mindful though, the chocolate phone is a simple phone, is a lot of looks and great build, but not a lottt of fancy functions (but I don't need all of those fancy functions which I never would use anyways)..

Other than that, I have no bad reviews for LG.

I got the LG TU500 a couple of months ago, could not be happier. Very easy to navigate. Has all the features I need. Most importantly for me, it is not possible to make a pocket phone call, which I used to do all the time with my Nokia's when I would forget to lock the keypad. It is a very solid phone which as a guy I like as I am rough on equipment.

I have had a few brands of phones and I have always went back to nokias. I currently have a nokia n73 and I have found that, after getting used to the controls, it is one of the most easiest phones to use. You can have 8 shortcuts on the main screen, the quality of the camera is better than most normal cameras that are out these days and it has a quick shortcut button to the gallery where all the ringtones and pictures are accessable.

I also have a Motorola V3 and The only problem with that one is that it is locked to Virgin and I can't get it off which is why I upgraded to the nokia.

But i find that the choice of phone is up to the user and what they need in a phone.

All i look for in a phone is usability and how it looks and feels oh and I guess price comes into it. I have a Sony Erricson K800 and it's the best phone I've had as far as usability goes.

Before that I had a Motorolla flip phone and had all sorts of troubles with that and the navigation was too confusing... it all comes down to personal preference though i guess. For me Sony Erricson.

I do a lot of travelling for my job. For this reason I like phones that can synchronise with my calender and outlook. I also like the ability to connect to the internet at hotspots throughout the country. That is why I generally go for the i-mates or PDA's with phones. I think these phones will be the future. They will get smaller and small and replace the current phones. Sure they are a little big now but they are heaps better then carrying round a laptop, pda and mobile. All in one.

Cheers.

So it does not seem that LG has been slated by anyone. What is a good model? I do not need a camera, but these days most seem to have one. I say give me function and I will use my camera as a camera and my phone as a phone.
