Then a few weeks ago, I researched Android phones and bought an HTC Hero expecting to be impressed by the technology but at the same time, unlikely to get much use from the bells and whistles. Well that thought quickly went out of the window... now I'm addicted, and I even "tweet".

I'm based in the UK and my provider is T-Mobile, but I bought an unlocked phone from Amazon.
