    I don't tend to call people really, but that looks good, I just want online really.

    methinks this should be moved by a mod to the Mobile_PDA section

    The narrower a man’s mind, the broader his statements.

    Ok I'm so confused.

    I'm thinking of a Samsung Galaxy or iPhone, am I reading/hearing things wrong or can I not pay directly for either device and just pay as part of a monthly fee which includes data coverage, texts etc.

    You could buy the phone outright (sim free as in not locked to any network) which would cost 500-700euro, then you could go on a 30 day sim only contract (no long contracts and some good prices). Best to test various networks signals first, where you live work and play, by getting some free pre pay sims from them.

    Once you find the networks with the best coverage then come back and we can make recommendations then
