freitasm: No, please don't go off topic. This is not a Vodafone discussion. If needed please w2krules open a new discussion.
sbiddle: Next G is 100% 850 UMTS. Telstra also run a dual mode and tri band 900 GSM + 1800 GSM + 2100 UMTS network under the MobileNet brand.
The 2100 network was a joint rollout with 3 who (to make things really confusing) are merging with Vodafone.
The device has been modified to fit their services, with the ability to watch Foxtel movies over Next G, and easy access to specific video channels. The HD will also support turn by turn navigation either for a subscription of $15 per month or on a pay per use basis.
Damager: The good folks down under are finally getting access to the highest end Windows Mobile phone, with the HTC Touch HD being launched exclusively on Telstra until the 30th April, using their NextG 850 Mhz band network.
and even though the HTC Touch HD is quoted in the "Next G" section of Telstra nextG website, it will actually run on their 850 GSM network??
I know the Touch HD does quad band GSM and WCDMA 900/2100, but the article implies that the Touch HD will run on Telstra Next G's WCDMA 850 network. From here, i thought there was the same possibility it would run on Telecom's XT 850 network as well as the 2100 network.

Sorry, I didn't thnik that I'd get such a reaction! Here is a link to a thread that I started a couple of weeks ago: http://www.geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp?forumid=39&topicid=32186
Johnr, if you want to continue this discussion in a public forum please start a thread in the Vodafone area. And I was using a 900 MHz device.

It's not a "reaction". It's the rules. This thread is on the Telecom forum, about Telecom's next network. So to keep things focused we ask people to create other discussions for other topics.

There are a few different versions of those handsets. HTC obviously made a 850 MHz version that would nicely fit Telstra, Telecom New Zealand and AT&T Wireless. There's no "special modification", it's just a different version.
flashshotz: I think Telecom have a 7 day right of return
n00dy:flashshotz: I think Telecom have a 7 day right of return
There is a ROR for phones bought from the website or over the phone with telecom 123, however if you use the phone or charge the battery it can not be returned, this is where you may have thought you were getting one device but recieve another.
On another note, I have been informed, reliabily, that once your migrate from CDMA to W850 you can not go back, there is not provision to reverse an upgrade.

to do with the CGA I believe (Consumer goods act). Basically if you are sold something without seeing it first (whether it be via the internet, through a call centre or another way) then you have a right of return (I thought 14 days, but maybe 7).
