Maybe you should re-consider your mobile provider. I get 5gb per month which is more than sufficient for such a service.

My head is totally forked now guys, I am more confussed now then ever lol, thanks by reading between the lines its looking to be a Samsung , I am not a sheep and no need to have a image hence look at my old phone, I am happy with it, but when were getting to phones for updating you have to b smart I dont see me buying another for a while hence why im asking, like our VE went and got what we wanted and never looked back
...then you don't sync as much media as I do! I'm on 5GB/month through Telstra as well, if all the media I used had to come through the cloud, I'd have to sell my house and car to afford to sync to the cloud for a few months.
I was on a site for 14 hours yesterday doing firmware upgrades on a SAN. I plugged my USB stick into my Iconia and probably watched more than 4GB of media alone in that time. I've got a job tonight that'll probably go for ~6 hours, I've put some new TV on the stick and I'll probably chew through another 2GB of media.
Would I have preferred to just stream it from somewhere (or from the cloud)? Sure! I'd have a lot more content to choose from.. but I would have exceeded my data plan in less than 36 hours.
...then if I were to include the content I listen to in the car which would be ~150MB/day...
Leave the personal judgements aside. With the age of high definition, media is only taking up more and more space. A 700mb movie is the absolute minimal quality I will download. I usually try to find movies double the size of that, and if it's a good movie I'll download a 720p version which usually range between 4 and 6gb. I personally don't bother with 1080p yet I still have 6tb dedicated to media storage. Syncing that volume of data to the cloud is just not practical (yet), especially seeing as our uploading speeds are often far lower than downloading speeds, and when most of the media might only be viewed once every so often, or maybe even just once if it's a crap movie :lol:
Getting back to the task at hand as this thread is derailing quite rapidly...
IMO any smart phone is going to struggle lasting more than 2 years. Even looking after it, they're not as sturdy and robust as your trusty old Nokia. After 2 years use, it will be well past time to upgrade IMO.
When all else fails, revert to calling those who don't agree with you "fanboys".
SAMSUNG IT IS waiting on Voadphone to see what they can do for updating with them, free on 12 month $45 plan yes 12 month not norm 24 month

Congratulations, epic post. Thankyou for the correction. I feel somehow better armed to go through life without feeling like a complete failure.
Floppy dildo aside, being an apple fan I bet you know what it feels like to get it rammed in "your" ass every time you use "your" apple product?
If you could ever so clearly, in small words of course to cater to my lower intellect explain what advantage at all any Apple product has over anything?
