You've hit the nail on the head there. The current range of handsets are equivalent to handsets from about 5 years ago, in size and battery life terms. I had the chance to change contracts recently as T-mobile introduced a change to their terms and conditions, but I decided to see the contract out and then judge what was on offer. I just didn't like the handsets on offer. I don't think the handsets will improve until all the major networks bring out their 3G networks and it makes sense for handset manufacturers to concentrate on putting more effort on development in 3G handsets.
