I decided to cancel my Orange contract and ask for the PAC. I phoned Vodafone and they offered us ( myself and my girlfriend ) 3 months half price line rental, free W810i, 200 minutes, 250 text for £20. They also said that they'll give us both a set of SE MPS-60. I think he said they were portable speakers. I was quite pleased considering I was paying £30 for 120 minutes and 250 text with Orange. Does anyone know if the speakers that are coming with it are any good?

Did Orange try to persuade you to stay by offering any better deal? Your deal sounds good. As long as u coulf live with the Vodafone branding. I certainly not. That's why i always go to o2 or by CPW.

Orange tried to offer me a better contract but to be honest the signal is no good in my area so it was better off me switching anyway. As for Vodafone branding, this started to worry me after I'd ordered my phone. But when the phone arrived, apart from the start up and shut down video and a small sticker at the bottom of the phone, I don't see what all the fuss is about. To be honest for the deal I was offered and the fact he's given us both a set of MPS-60 speakers all for £20, I can live with the branding.

Has anybody bought from this site?

http://www.megastore-electronics.com/sony_ericsson_w810.html

This is the cheapest i've seen the w810 for, but i'm a little reluctant to purchase from the website.....it looks a little shady.

Here in the US we can't get good deals for the "high-end" phones...we still have to pay $200-$300 and sign a multi-year contract

What?

shoei: minimum order is $599. hehe. and you can only pay via western union. also, their physical address is in the UK, but they seem to only be offering products to U.S. customers.

I got my w810 from o2 uk yesterday.

I managed to get it for free on my £20 300 off-peak 500 txt contract as an upgrade.

I think I got a pretty good deal on the W810i here in Sweden, 330$ (~183 £), with contract 12 months, monthly fee of 9$ which I may call for.

i got my w810i orange branded in the Orange Shop in Eindhoven, Netherlands two days ago, for 12 months Orange Free €32,50.
I got €25,- discount on the phone price (student discount). I only had to pay 44,95 instead of 69,95.

First four months i get €10,- discount on the monthly feed.
I plan to downgrade it after 6 months to 22,50 a month.

now thats 10x22,50 + 2x32,50 + 44,95 = € 334,95.

pretty neat eh?!

Free upgrade to the w810i and half price (£15) for a year for the o2 uk 200 package (200mins and 100 sms) - or I could have £100 credit instead of the phone.

First w810 is faulty so I've returned it and they gave me £15 for the hassle
