Think you need to go all-in on a postpaid contract to get the bes. crap a carrier has to offer? Well, Truly often you do — but not on Vodafone in the UK, where its recently-declare Christmas lineup contains perfectly decent fare like the Samsung Steel and Omnia for £80 and £400, respectively. Granted, that’s a little (okay, a lot) more than you’ll pay on contract, but at least the options are there, right? Those two comprise part of a monstrous 16-phone lineup declare to lead Vodafone through the holiday sales rush, which includes the high-horsepower Sony Ericsson C905 and X1, the Nokia N96 16GB, and the BlackBerry Storm on contract, among a host of others. Voda sweetens the pot for buyers of the Samsung G600, Nokia 6500 Classic, and Sony Ericsson K770i by throwing in a digital photo frame, which particularly comes in handy with the G600’s respectable 5-megapixel resolution. All told, the lineup’s a little overwhelming, but if we had to choose between an overwhelming lineup and an anemic (read: American) one, you know which one we’re picking ten times out of ten.
