Looking for hints, tips and advice peeps.

Buying a new phone.
Not keen on touchscreens, but after a trip to the Metrocentre earlier, it seems I don't have much choice!

I am sticking with my payg sim and will be buying phone with cold, hard cash.

Need internet (rules out the 99p Nokia that one shop had), the ability to open word/excel document and emails (push or webmail).
Anything else, not too fussed about.

I have apple products (ipad and ipod) and have a Windows 8 laptop - so syncing/compatibility isn't an issue.

Not prepared to pay hundreds for something that is probably only going to last a couple of years either.

Any advice?
Currently have a Nokia e5 that has been great, but is on its last legs.
