HTC Hero is on Meteor

Meteor has silently let put the HTC hero subsidised from €99 - Available on their €25 plan (€20 if you sign up for 18 months) - take that O2.

So less than 50% of the monthly O2 cost for an iPhone and it half the upfront cost.
You could buy 2 and still be cheaper than a single iPhone.

The HTC Hero may have been surpassed technically by the (unreleased) Droid / Milestone which sports the spiffy new Android 2.0 w/ multitouch (at least in Europe), but with new ROM update it's fast and HTC have formally announced they'll support Android 2.0 on the HTC hero.

I may be reading it wrong but if you want a data-plan then it is €55 a month. More than O2. And the Hero is the kind of phone you want a data-plan.

Hi Paul, the surf tariff which gives 500 mins and 1Gb for €55 - which doesn't seem great.

However, you can add 250Mb data/month to any tariff for €4.99 a month.
Which for me is sufficient. Which would give €25/month in total (18 month contract).

Hey even you could even get UNLIMITED bandwidth for €14.99 extra a month and it is still cheaper than the iPhone.

I like the iPhone (a lot), I just think the O2 plans are expensive.
