What would be the best handset to use with Telstra when off the beaten track? Do you have an external antenna on your vehicle?
I've got an N95 with Virgin which is great in metro areas, and I've seen that the n95s are highly recommended when with Telstra. Flash features aren't a big deal, I'd rather have longer battery life. Mind you, the n95 can do a hell of a lot, so I would expect a few things from a new phone - in this order:
bluetooth - that can be turned off when not needed
camera
wifi + tethering - that can be turned off when not needed
gps - not essential, I rely on a real one

I see the Motorolla DEFY had a blue tick, and is fairly rugged - any experience?
