TyTN is this years technology, P990 is last years I guess

I assume this vertical icon strip is something orange add to their windows mobile devices?

@massuer

the TyTN is available on expansys now, have you got yours yet?

the only thing i hate about the TyTN is the 65k screen and the external analogue sound like speakers.

yes, of course I have mine

I rarely use the external speaker except for the occasional hands free call and the number of screen colours has never worried me as its never been an issue, even watching ripped DVD's using TCPMP

I live in a small block of flats but cannot get regular GSM reception on Orange or T-Mobile, but do on O2 and Vodafone. The reason I understand is due to signal penetration of the networks, due to the frequency at which they operate. Same reason why Orange and T-Mobile are less likely to work underground in a bar etc. Is 3G reception better and does it benefit from better signal penetration? This phone and the right answer might mean I leave O2 for Orange
