SP5 vs SDA(UK)

[Guest bb79]

Ok guys, this question isnt a daft as it sounds. To cut to the chase I need some advice on the major differences between the T-mobile SDA (I'm in the UK so we're talking the old one equivalent to a C500) and an SP5. Is WM2005 really all that? What other benefits does the SP5 have except wi-fi? Should I leave my faithful companion for a younger sexier model when there's not really anything wrong with what I've got?!

I've had my SDA just over a year for personal i.e. not business use so I dont need to receive work emails, dont really access the internet over gprs etc. and I love it. It had been slowly dying for a few months now and last month gave up the ghost totally. It was just out of warranty (11 days!) so I had it sent away for a quote for repairs, as it might not have been worth the money to fix it. In the meantime, after asking at about 3 different shops and CS there really is no news of an SDA 3 or some such coming out any time soon. So I was gonna upgrade my T-mob to a phone with the best retail value for littlest money, sell it on and use the money to buy myself an SP5. I was thinking SP5 rather than C600 as although I might not make much use of the Wi-fi it would be nice to have.

But......... the T-mob shop I sent my SDA away from has just rung and said it has come back fixed, they've changed the main board even tho it was out of warranty and it hasnt cost me anything!! :( Now Im not sure what to do. Do I stay with my good old SDA, not upgrade and therefore by not signing on for another year leave myself free to jump ship if something good comes along maybe something interesting on Orange or do I go ahead with my plan??

Sorry to ramble, I think Ive had a bit too much coffee to chase away my Saturday morning hangover :rolleyes:
