    iPhone 5 or Samsung Galaxy S II?

    Nokia N9. :) Seriously, Nokia makes the best cameras in phones, and its an all screen phone (no buttons) - so, not much besting it out there. If I had to pick one of the two though, I would go iPhone. I don't think that iPhone 4S/5 is going to be THAT much different from previous models, so...

    which mobile phone carrier are you with?

    I can't wait to go back to Vodafone, from Telstra. I really only ever use my mobile for Twitter, but 'no data plan' is killing me. In any case, the coverage isn't worth $100 a month, and I never had problems with Vodafone - I may not be able to make calls in lifts anymore, but I think I'll...
