Hi all,

I currently have an iPhone 4G with a payg sim inside of it & due to itunes annoying me, I decided to get another phone. I will be getting my contract phone within the next couple of days, but despite being annoyed by itunes, I cannot bare to part with the iphone 4G.

Has anyone here got more than one handset ?

Yes have a Blackberry Torch as my personal handset and an SE Elm which functions nicely as business/spare. The latter of which I luckily don't pay any line rental. The Blackberry like the iPhone is a pain for its short battery life...the Elm on the other hand....thats a bloody joke....4/5 days on average I get out of that when left on 2G.

I have a Desire on contract as my main handset and an N900 which I bought myself mid contract.

The N900 is an absolute beast and sadly never got a serious chance to prove its capabilities, but the Desire is a far better day-to-day phone.

I have one phone that I use. A Blackberry 9780.
I have my old curve in a drawer as backup in case of an emergency.

People who use and carry two PERSONAL phones drive me nuts. You never know which number to contact them on.

hmmm...I always think they must be having an affair! I can just about see the point of having a work phone (that you can turn off at weekends!) & and personal one, but not two.

I do usually keep one spare handset (one I have upgraded) for emergencies, but I switch sims if I need to use that. I have another spare PAYG "holiday phone" that my DDs are allowed to take abroad, with limited credit, as I don't trust them with their usual phones, that spends most of the year in a drawer.

I currently have 3 (but will be selling one shortly). I use a spare one for when I go to gigs with a pay as you go sim card in it. I know people who have had phones pinched at those sort of things before and don't want to risk it!

My BB 9000 was repaired just before the contract ran out. I put a £10 o2 simplicity in it after the contract ended. Then it developed a minor fault and decided to get a Desire on contract to see if I liked touch screens and Android. That's how I ended up with two phones.

I have a Blackberry for work, and another for personal.

I also have a Nokia E71 on pay as you go as a spare phone. Don't really use it much, but kept it in case anyone texts my old number.

I've also got a really old Nokia (possibly a 6110), but I doubt that turns on any more.
