ok, it's priced like a smartphone, terrific.

Kind of....  its cheaper than the iphone (crazy stand alone price)

but quite a bit more than the best Nokia, HTC and Blackberry - they tend to be in the mid to high 300's (Nokia N8 is £369)

Using Play.com as a guideline (sim free prices), HTC Desire HD is £480. The newSony Xperia is £420 new. new Blackberry Torch 9800 is £460. Play.com has new Samsung Galaxy S II (release in May) at £540. LG Optimus 2X £460.

To be honest it seems a fair price for what is offered. The £30 a month with the phone is a good deal though,
