Has anyone tried unlocking it yet
PM me an IMEI from one of these phones, and I'll get you a code to try.
If it works, my girlfriend wants one, but not on 3

They're not getting 100,000 in at once! 1850 arrived on Tuesday. Another 7500 were due end of this week, according to last stock update. The 100,000 is the quantity they've secured over the Christmas period.
There is a process in place to backorder them, if you pay by credit card.
And, finally, the price goes up to £49.99 (+voucher) as of November 1st.

If you ask ANY sales assistant at the cpw,they WILL tell you that they receive a consignment of 3 to 6 phones(7600's anyway)every x number of days.They rarely ever seem to have many phones in stock for some strange reason.False economy,and utterly crap retail practice spring to mind,or maybe they're just extremely paranoid about the possibility of an armed robbery!they are good with after sales service,but stock and informative assistants are pretty absent!

Hey peeps, u can unlock your 7600s from this website:
www.trycktill.com/eng
Ive used to unlock both my 7600s bought from Carphonewarehouse.com, at £44.99 each. Basically getting the phone handset only for £45 which aint bad at all. Its a bloody good fone too, been using it more than my p800 since ive got it! Does anyone know where the £15 voucher comes from? because i didnt get any delievered with the fone! |

the voucher is activated when u buy the phone . u can check your balance on "my3" on the free 3 wap.they've changed the tariff to include less minutes.
amazon is doing them for 40 quid also.
surely your p800 is better.the browser doesn't show standard web pages too well. |

Actually, keeping stock-holding low, and at realistic levels is good economic practice. And the point you raise about armed robbery is a relevant one. That would be one of the factors taken into consideration when deciding how much stock a store should hold. You would be surprised at the amount of CPW stores that are robbed (though not necessarily armed) on a weekly basis, as we know mobile phones are just about top of the thieves' list and has been for the last 2-3 years, since they became a valuable commodity for export.
However, there are two other factors to take into account:
Firstly, it is not always possible, especially in the mobile retail industry, to be able to obtain as much stock as one would like, as manufacturing traits such as poor supply levels, inaccurate release dates, and inconsistent ability to source parts make it very difficult to maintain levels of stock one would like. Believe me, it is not simply down to a lack of willingness to purchase on the retailer side.
Secondly, CPW has a substantial mail/telephone/e-order system offering next-day delivery on all stocked products and is, in many ways, a better option to buy from, especially as your consumer rights give you 7 days to decide to return anything bought from "distance sellers" - a luxury you do not receive if you purchase from a high-street store.
The store staff knowledge, I can't defend
