Hi all,

First post on these forums so I hope it's in the right place.

I'm getting one of these SE phones very shortly, and was wondering if anyone knew if Virgin brand the phone or the software in any way shape or form?

I'm in the UK btw.

Thanks.

I once contacted Virgin about branding on the K700. They said there was a small Virgin logo on one of the sides. Dunno if same with W800.

haribofan2 - Not actually ordered it yet but the website says 'In Stock Order Now'. I just rang and they have had some in today - http://www.e2save.com

Tariff details are:

Virgin Mobile 100 + 200 SMS
12 month contract
£16 (£32 after promo period)
6 months 1/2 price line rental
calls - 100 (anytime, any network)
texts - 200
handset - free
3 months free insurance
1 month VIP handset support helpline free

JAGUY85 - Cheers. Hopefully there will be no software branding on the phone which is what I was mainly worried about.

I asked them about branding when I ordered one just now and they said it's not branded in any way and it's also open to all networks, just in case anyone else is interested

You're lucky...wish I could get one too. I am in Jamaica. The W800 costs more than $30,000 JMD here.
