YES! Back in NZ now! And what a lovely day in Auckland today. So nice. Had a BBQ an all! So glad to be back. People are so much nicer here. Still, made quite a few good friends in the UK that I am leaving behind which is sad but I have badgered them about how grat it is here so they will come.
Gutted the X1 wasnt released before I left. Still managed to get someone to post me one so will have that in a week or so! Can put my C902 on the shelf for now.

Welcome back JiSm! It must have been a beautiful day across the whole country today. Really sunny and hot in Chch too. Too bad I had work! 
There's only one thing worrying my girlfriend about buying a phone privately, and that's the warranty. Obviously it won't have one, so I'll need to talk to her about that a bit more. Can I ask what colour it is and what price you'll be sticking on it?
She has also spotted the K770i at the Vodafone shops and I think she's pretty keen on that, but who knows what she'll decide on in the end!

I think its silver. The sticker on the box is a silver one. Im thinking I should open it and have a look. Yea, I have no idea how the warranty would work as it was a gift from SE to me! Was quite good actually. They gave me a desktop stand for my C902 and a bluetooth stereo headset! Quite chuffed actually. Might just advertise it on Trade me. Chuck a reserve on it and go from there! right time of year me thinks! haha I brought back a few second hand mobiles I got from mates in the UK too. Might put them up too! Will see how I go...

Playtime is awesome! All you need to know about it is here.
Last year I won a phone strap and a EGB-100 (I think it's called).

Umm... That's only half right I'm afraid. The part about Vodafone phones not being locked and accepting Telecom SIM cards is correct, but that doesn't mean any VF phone will work on Telecom's network. Only phones that have the UMTS/HSDPA 850 (N95, K850, W760, Z770, Z750, G705, X1) will work. The majority of Quad band phones support only GSM 850 so WILL NOT WORK. Telecom's new network will not support WCDMA 2100 which Vodafone uses.
It's an exact copy of Telstra Australia TBH. For a foretaste of the phones you can expect, check out the Telstra Next G site. Because I'm posting this from my iPhone I can't copy and paste a link-sorry.

Welcome to Esato Blaxoid!
And nice phone! I have a black C902 myself and am loving it too. Great camera, great looks, great build quality! Yeah us NZers aren't doing too badly here... We're doing better than the Australians!
Where abouts in NZ do you hail from? I'm in Chch.
EDIT: I just added you to our New Zealanders list on the first page of this thread.

Yeah it's so hot and sunny! I just went for a drive into town and went and walked around the art gallery and arts centre taking a few photos with my C902. Man I hope all of summer is like this!
