I'm not a particular Nokia fan, but I've done a *lot* of research into the phone makers around things like reliability, build quality, component quality (this is where brands like Samsung & HTC fail). Apple I dunno, it's possible with Mr Jobs out of the picture, that history may repeat itself like the last time he wasn't around, apples star may be waning or about to. I think we'll know for sure in the next two years abut them. When their current and 'in development' projects are done.

In short MS & Nokia are definitely 2 contenders to watch closely over the next 6 - 9 months.
i totally disagree with what u have said about Samsung and HTC. My Past 4 phones have been Samsung and have all been brilliant and infact my dad is now using one of my old Samsungs the SGH-U600 and its still working like a dream. I now have a HTC Wildfire and only reason i didnt get a Samsung at the time is that the HTC was of a higher spec than the Samsungs in the range for the price i was willing to pay and its great little phone. I also have family and friends who are longtime HTC or Samsung fans if they were not of such a good build quality then im certain they would not stick to the brand.
