An O2 store assistant told me today that they are going to stop selling the W580i due to the cracked keys problem. I thought by now this problem would have been solved. Anyone else heard this. I also heard a Carphonewarehouse shop assistant tell some customer not to buy that phone due to the problems with its keys. But surely if they are still in their stores and advertising the phone it cant be so.

Just spoke to O2 again and they said that most shops have not had them in for nearly 2 months. They are not sure when next stock is coming.

Great cheers. I just called One Stop Phone Shop as i live in Birmingham i can get there. They said they dont stock them in store they only stock in their shop whats the most popular sellers. So you gotta go online. Tut. Might try Carphone see if they have any even though what they said about the phone aswell. God its frustrating.

Have you tried Woolworths, you can check for stock online I don't think you need to buy extra credit.
