hey i was just wondering if anyone knew of any new "exciting" phones that will be released on the 027 network anytime soon? My Sanyo M1 is getting a little faulty and so i thought i might buy a new phone sometime soon. I have looked on telecoms website and to be honest nothing really compares to the features of the M1 - not even the oktas because they dont have video :( - But im not really after something like that just a cell phone.

So anyone know of any new releases soon to be on 027?

Thanks in advance :)

Could be video messaging? You can record videos but can only send via email, you cant do a video call, mms/pxt, video messaging etc, which kinda sucks as it would make it perfect.

At least i think its still like this, it was on the apache and it seems to on the touch for as much as ive used it.

And yes vodafones are better because there is a greater demand for GSM (vodafone) phones. That's why Telecom is launching GSM this year or next.

Hey there, long time reader, first time poster etc etc....

A version of Samsung Blackjack and Blackberry (8830?) are the next two 'big ones' for Telecom - both worldmode PDA/smartphones. Blackberry already testing with some of their corporate customers, should be available for general release soon.
