So we don't have to get parallel imported stuff and not supported by Vodafone NZ? I want to see the new 8120 pearl, 8100 is so old now.

Cheers

Thanks not doubting your ability to unlock phones properly etc, but I find that it is best to get a phone that is fully endorsed and supported by the carrier, as support will always be available, and there should be no warranty issues!

i find that when VF brings in a "new model" phone, you actually can't find them anywhere else in the world as they've moved onto a newer model (sometimes 2-3 models newer) and that particular model have been completely cleared off the shelves in the rest of the world! guess where they went... NZ! i really hope things have changed but i can't be bothered buying new models for a while now due to the fact they're old, so i am out of touch now. tell me if things have changed ...
