OK lovers of vibrate...You are going to have to switch it off on the Z1010, it is chewing the battery like mad. I only pack one day with a full charge. I have done a bit of testing (I know its common sense, but the phone managed to reach 2days on moderate to high usage.)

A very happy chappy this morning. Just got my hands on a Z1010 on 3 in the UK. I have to give it back tonight as it is not type approved. However the guy who I got it from says it is now approved by 3 for use on their network and should be out very very very soon, maybe tomorrow!!! I am on T-Mobile and like themarques I am experiencing lots of inactive sim. Functionality seems very similar to the T610 so not too much to learn.

@sunnychad Well done mate, I hope they dont go branding the outside of the phone with 3's Logo. I hope they leave it as it is. I think the one's in Sweden have the 3 logo on the bottom of the phone (were the Quikshare badge is). If thats the case then this will be easy to remove.

Did your friend tell you if the Today on 3 content will be working properly? Or will it be like the Nokia 7600 and not be supported for a little while.

Hi!
Read in a mobile magazine today that the z1010 is going to be launched on vodafone uk before any other operator but sony ericsson is looking into other operators. The people at vodafone also said that it would be 6 to 8 weeks before they would go on sale! More delays! Ihope the article was wrong! But in comparing the k700 and the z1010, ignoring the video call and 3g services, which phone do you think is going to be the better?

@richardlusty Which mag would that have been in then? I can tell you know from my experience that they other networks WILL NOT RELEASE THE Z1010 until they are running 3g. In other words they wont sell it for the 2g market. Simple reason is that the phone is not really suited for that. I find it weird that they say Vodafone will be the first considering Vodafone made a public announcement, that they will release the 3g service in time for xmas due to wanting to have the best serive on launch and not have constant teething problems.

Anyone waiting for the Z1010 i think you best bet is on 3. And as reported earlier it might be out in the next few days.

I jut got my z1010 and I am unbelievably happy. It is in stock at all stores here in Greece! I got it for 750 euros without an new phone line subscription. It was aout in two colors - silver and red. I got the red one because I believe it is much prettier.

To tell you the truth it is somewhat large, thicker to be exact, than what I expected, but still it is a beauty (beats my p800). Anyway waiting for it to charge.
I just want a simple phone... with 32bit color touch screen, video recording 640x480, 5 Megapixel camera, integrated TV/FM tuner, GPS system, and that shouldnt be heavier than 90g and should easily fit in my pocket...
