I may need to buy a new mobile phone. And the old one was getting pretty old anyway -- nearly three years old, and battery not taking the charge like it used to.

Anyway, infamous technophobe that I am, I've not really been keeping up with the mobile phone market. What should I get?

Must-have features are:

• Tri-band
  
• Predictive text messaging (I doubt you can get a phone without it, mind you)
  
• Modem with IR and USB connectivity for use from my Clié and Powerbook
  
• Supported by Apple iSync
  
• Works on Virgin Mobile
  

Nice-to-have features are:

• Camera/MMS
  
• GPRS web browser
  
• Small
  
• Light
  
• Anything else I've forgotten

My mantra now is that my Orange SPV is very good at being a computer but pretty crap at being a phone..
