In yesterday's newspaper, I saw Orange have an offer, for the Samusung Galaxy S Plus at 3k a month for 2 years. 

Am not sure how the metrics work, but it seems interesting.

Skunks,

Came across this interesting Comparison table when doing background research on Iphone 4 and Samsung Galaxy S Plus before making a purchase. Is it just me or does the Samsung Galaxy S Plus  come across as a better phone when one does an objective analysis ?
