I've now got a Nexus 4 and a nice loyalty contract from T-Mobile that I will convert to a SIM only deal next time it comes around, which will certainly work out cheaper than an 18-month contract with phone. Downside with the Nexus is that it's a sealed unit so if the battery starts to go it may shorten its life but there are a lot of interesting phone projects coming along, not least the Edge or whatever gets made, that will make combined contracts less essential. s/ -- Twitter: @sfgreenwood "TBA are particularly glib"
