Question What 3 handset should I consider?

I'm a current 3 Xseries user, and I'm considering my next phone. I've got an N800, so I'm more bothered about its ability to share the data connection than its browser etc. I do need to use the phone though, so it should be faster/more reliable/quicker at handover (3g/2g) than the E65 I have currently. I am most concerned with size/weight, It's just a phone/data modem really, however I use Tomtom (which I could give up for navicore I suppose) and Slingplayer fairly regularly. I'd be gutted to have to give up slingplayer.

I'm willing to trade some features to add a decent point-shoot camera to the mix.. Maybe to the extent of the K850i or the Viewty.. but not the N95 unfortunately, it's just tooooo chunky for a phone.

I suppose the top candidates are the E51 or the N82 (if ever that sees the light of day).. but am I missing anything?

One other question for people on 3 already with newer phones.. Are any of you seeing HSDPA yet? I heard that you had to have the "Broadband" addon to get HSDPA? But surely your phone just uses it if it's there? How is the billing worked out for that?
