Hi I need a phone that can recieve email. Im lookin for some advice on whether to go vodafone, O2 etc, Blackberry etc..... I only need it for checking email and a laptop is not an option. Any advice on price, service, phone and so on would be a great help:)

or get an e61 from voda. identical to blackberry functionality (thru tariff) and the benefit of an excellent operating system (Symbian S60 OS 9.0), great keyboard and bucketloads of 3rd party apps. If push is not your bag I would suggest profimail as your email app for E61. Great app and worth the 20 or so lids.
3 also do a mobile broadband package at €6 for 100MB which for most people is loads for browsing mobile sites and getting your mail. Its a cheap option to compliment your desktop mail. You can time your symbian based Nokia such as the N73 to get mail every 15 mins so its very similar to push email anyway. You lose the qwerty keys though. so its good for reviewing and checking mail but not great for ressponding witha an opus. For firing off the quick response when out of the office its more than adequate. You could also pony up for a Bluetooth keyboard such as "Think Outsides BT Keyboard". I have been using one for the past two years with a wide range of BT phones and it almost negates the use of a laptop for email anyway.
Hope that helps.

And Mail for Exchange works brilliantly on the E61 (recently updated too).
