Listening to the radio this morning, they said it had been released. Don't know what network or anything though.

Hi all,

Well just to add some additional drama to the situation the 02 website is being updated for phones available currently, will be interesting to see just what if anything appears later. It could mean something then again it may just be a coincedience and nothing more.

Marc

No word yet on whether its on a 12 or 18 month contract.

On a 12 month contract you're looking at a minimum annual spend of:

(12 x £35) + £269 = £689

That's too much for me. Bit of a step up from my current ~£270 per year + free phone.

18 months contract. There is a limit: 1,400 internet pages per day would break the deal as part of fair usage agreement.

That's definately a no-no for me then. No way I want to be tied in that long.

So, to re-do my calculation

(18 x £35) + £269 = £899 minimum spend in 18 months.
