Listener Question:

I found your podcast a few weeks ago and I love it! But, tell James to sort

his 'happy shopper' mic out ;-)  Muther Fukker! Anyway I have fixed it!
My
current phone is a Nokia N85 (I've owned a few Nokias). I like the features and
use most of them alot, I also don't mind Symbian OS.
However, it is time for
an upgrade!
I really fancy going the 'touch screen' route, though I've never
had or tried one! But something tells me I'd be better off with a 'forward
facing qwerty' as I do lots of messaging.
I'm a mechanic and my hands are
often dirty and they are a bit chunky! I have narrowed the list to three
handsets; HTC Desire, Nokia E72, and Blackberry 9700!
The Desire seems to be
an amazing gadget with a gorgeous screen and nice apps.
Blackberry seem to be
the ultimate messaging machine but the Nokia E72 seems to be a better
phone?
I'm sure you lot will be very familiar with these phones, so your
expert views are appreciated.
Sorry if this is one of a million 'help me
choose' emails but......tough ;-)
