another mobile phone recommendation thread

yes, it's me this time. the oracle of all useless advice, asking for advice

anyway the situation as it stands at the moment.... i have two contracts:

orange yourplan direct 3000 texts at £20 a month
vodafone 200 xnet mins and 200 texts £30 a month

and one phone, orange SPV M1000. Both contracts are coming up to the end (both about 9 months through). So, I'm basically going to jack both of them in and take out a nice spangly new contract which incorporates as many free minutes as possible, and approximately 300 texts, 3200 a month is just overkill.

And I don't want to spend £50 a month or more, as I am now (incidentally, used 32mb of GPRS on top this month, that added another £25 )

Sooooo, can anyone recommend good mobile phones to me? I've seen a lot of offers over at onestopphoneshop but since growing up i've fallen out of the "what mobile phone is trendy" market...

Bluetooth is the one essential thing it needs, all other things are expendable as far as I'm concerned. I want to get something smaller to carry around and leave the SPV sitting in the car for permanent satnav now, it is a bit heavy

So, recommendations at the end of all that? I'm generally opposed to SonyEricsson phones, they don't work too well with me. And no, i'm not going to wait for an upgrade, i've already checked that out with orange and my upgrade fee is £100, before i even take into account the costs of getting another phone
