After a Smartphone..

Hey, I've had a break from smartphones for the last year and a bit (too long

) with my crappy W810i

Before that I'd had some really good smartphones, but now being not so up on which ones are good and which aren't, I'd like some advice.

Some key features I need:
Push E-mail
Large storage
Good MP3/4 player
Loud speakers
Bluetooth
Windows Mobile OS

If anyone has any idea which phone combines those features best that'd be great.

Also, I'm in the UK, so not all Windows phones are out over here,

Thanks.

HTC TYTN is good, if rather expensive. Cant understand why you want to do to windows mobile though!

Just like the idea of a familiar OS, and easier syncing.

Plus a mate of mine swears by t, and I've just wanted to try it out since I first saw it advertised at a tube station

its good to start with, but it drove me nuts after a while! Thing that really got me was the little pen you HAVE to use, otherwise you hit everything on screen at once. Windows mobile also seems to be pretty thirsty on the power front!

Its not really all that similar to windows 2bh, vaguely maybe. But yeah, gotta' give it that, syncing is a breeze when you install autosync.

TYTN's good, wifi, bluetooth, okay camera, front and back. Sliding top half for a full keyboard underneath etc etc etc. The only issue (apart from windows mobile) is the cost....

I couldn't find it anywhere!

You got a link?

However I quite like the look of the HTC S740. Might get me one of those

This review is pretty good, though it is rather old now, the price is not as high as it says on there!

Vodaphone also sell the 1615, which is a TYTN with a Vodaphone badge (even says HTC TYTN in the firmware!), you might have more luck finding it on there.
