@dugeon master I guess you guess is as good as everyone else. I would put my money on 3 releasing it first. For the simple reason that they are a 3g company and the phone is 3g, so until voda and crew release there 3g phones I dont think they will release the Z1010 on there network, for simple reason that it doesnt work well on 2G.

orange have the 3g mobile office card so they have got 3g i head that sony erricson are not realing it to 3 so i belive its between voda ad orange i belive ones waiting for the other to relese it so the can come up with a decent price apparently also both networks are only allowing to video call tyhe network and noone else so its going to be hard sales unless they sell the phone as a duel pack what you think

Sorry to burst you bubble about the info you heard, but it is very very incorrect. I can CONFIRM that 3 will have the Z1010 shortly (how do I know?, well I have a Z1010 and I use it on 3. It used to have compatibilty issues, mostly when tryin to browse 3's web page. Basically 3 designed the page for all the different phones they have. Now on the phone the url is as follows http://mobile.three.co.uk/hb/z1010/Grid notice the Z1010 in the last part of the url.. well that never used to work before and that was recetly released, I managed to stumble on it when trying to find the correct settings for the phone. So long story short 3 will release the Z1010 and much sooner than you think.
2. All the networks have 3g activated (you can see this when you do a manual search for a network, it just that once again they have not officialy released it.

cool mate i know every network has 3 but not all have relaed it yet i belive only orange and vodaphone i might be wrong so has 3 released the model yet if not when i have contact working for a pecifik network daying that they werent going to give it to 3 any way the lgu8150 looks cool and is apparently meant to be a better model that the z1010

In this months CarPhone Warehouse brochure there is a New Releases section at the front & it shows a Z1010 with a '3' logo on it.
It's also inside & says:
Handset £29.99 on £35 tariff
Upgrade £49.99
PAYG N/A

Well all I can say is you have not heard the last of the Z'series from SE. I would keep an eye out for xmas, if not sooner. Rumour is that another 3g version will be announced. This was the info I got from a guy who works for SE...
Note: I said announce..and not RELEASED.
Posted by dugeon master
so what do think of the lg i mentioned is it or is it not bettter than the z1010.
im still not sure on goingon the 3 network as i belive its a weak 3g signal im with orange at the mo and a contact i have said that he has used the z1010 in trainning and the pic quality is meant to be ten times better than 3
Posted by themarques
Well with regards about the LG it looks very much liike the first version...I dont know what has changed much??? With regards to Orange vs 3's video calling I cant possibly tell you the difference as I havent seen it myself. I guess you going to have to learn from trial and error. I have had my Z1010 for going on 2-3 months, and its been really cool and worked well. I will probably keep it until xmas and then switch to something else.

thanks for that mate just made a bid quick question doyou recon when all networks will be able to video call everyone.. do recon that they should sell them as a pair so at least youcould call someone if you dont know anyone on 3 or any other network that will have 3g
