Was travelling back home today by train and had some spare time in between connections and ended up popping into a couple or Orange shops to ask about the T610. One shop said they were expecting them in about 2 weeks and the other said the best info they had was end may/beginning June which would seem to tie-up!
Thing the Orange person who said "sometime in summer, probably July" just didn't have the latest information - at least I hope so! |

With the hissing problem fixed, and extra memory! (We can only wish!!) |

keep your fingers crossed for even within 2 weeks. Look in the Nokia section, the 3650 is still under coming soon! Thats been out on o2, voda and t for a while now! So judgin by that its gonna be a fair amount of time before the t610 arrives. |

Yes but hopefully Orange will have 'exclusives' on the T610. For example, their customised orange P800 was out before the 'standard' P800 on the other networks.
Anyways, some geezer on the Whatmobile.net forums reckons the Z1010 will be released July - Bulldust (as they say in Neighbours)!
I'm looking forward to the Z1010, as I like the clamshell design (as you do too, gemini). Hopefully it will either be available on 2G networks, or 3G will be more established.

Orange's internal website now says July as well.
Looks like the launch on Orange has been delayed. |

For those of you (like me) who can't wait for their T610, thanks to "stephenneal" for reminding me of this cool link http://www.sonyericsson.com/trythephone/T610/en |

@jonbob
I didn't see any mention of July in the latest in store catalogue (May/June) - where did it say that? All I saw was the bit in the main phones section that just said coming soon and then a full page advert elsewhere - neither of them mentioned July that I can recall?
@dss202529
By internal website I assume you mean the screens that OCS get their information from? I get the impression that this isn't kept particularly up to date. To be fair July is what an OCS tubby told me yesterday when I phoned up to make sure that I wouldn't be paying an upgrade fee but if it is on their screens and just out of date then we may still be looking at a June release. Let's hope so anyway!
Of course if it does appear on Voda significantly sooner then it may just be reason enough to switch back to them!

Yep. I mean the internal website C/S look at.
It was reading May/early June until a couple of days ago. Now it says July |
