Is it possible to purchase this device with Vodafone branding on it? Call me a fanboy, but I think it looks good :)

I'd assume it would come branded.

My E71 was purchased from a Vodafone store and it has the vodafone logo etched into it on the front, at the bottom.

That's what I'm looking for, but the ones I've looked at in-store don't seem to have this.

Very little branding on them just note the E63 does not support HSDPA

Extended 900MHz, or 2100MHz? Sorry, I get the two confused :(

I meant to say - it says on the VF website it supports 3G Extended, which is what I would need :)

Yes the Nokia E63 supports 3G 2100mhz and 3G extended 900mhz but data speed the max it will do down is 384k

Thanks Brent. Does that handset have the VF branding on it? I haven't looked at one of those yet.

Thread bump - does Vodafone's version of the Nokia E5-00 come with an FM radio? I had a look at the manual but can only find a reference to internet radio, not FM (the Telecom version does support FM however).

Sure does.

Menu > Media > Radio > FM Radio :)

You'll need the headset plugged for it to work :)

Thanks Brent...funnily enough the manual you guys link to on your website doesn't have any mention of it (just searching for "FM" didn't find anything) :)

That is a little weird.

It's mentioned in the standard specifications page, but not the manual.
Thanks for the heads up :)

Happy to help :) Once I get enough cents saved up, I might just go out and buy one of these, they look cool (and so does the RDS for the radio!) :)
