So is the process, if you don't already have a GSM device, to shop for a good sim deal and then shop for a cheap phone? Because Carphone Warehouse seems to be selling them in terms of "monthly contract phones" and "pay as you go phones" with a minimum top-up being like twenty pounds, and I see that they sell "pay as you go upgrades" so you can keep your current sim and just get a new handset, would I be buying in _that_ category in my case?
Oh wait, I also see a "sim free" category, is that the term they're using for "selling the handset, ready to take whatever sim you have?" I'm guessing I want that, but it'd be awesome if you could confirm my interpretation of their sales language. (This is kind of like how long it took me to catch up when all the stores started using BOGO in their sales materials).
