Hey guys,

Just a quickie!

I just got a D900 from Virgin on pay monthly....will the phone be externally branded? i.e. have a big ugly virgin blob on the outside?

I'm presuming it'll be locked...it must be.

Thanks
Al

Not really

Depending on what site you got it from.

Most site's(i.e e2save.com,mobileshop.com and so on) use sim free phones

So there is a good chance that it might be sim free and unbranded.

Not 100% sure with virgin though [addsig]

Doesn't bother me too much, though I'm not presuming there'll be one on the front...which is a bit annoying.

Edit - Just seen the batt cover it won't be on that.

Thanks mate, great help.

tbh i hate the D900

Had one not that long ago and hated everything about it

even though it was a 3 mp camera, It was actualy really crap quality.

Plus the phone felt like cheap plastic

Didnt like it [addsig]

Now that is very odd. I haven't held one myself but all the reviews and people I've asked about it says it has a lovely feel.

Reviews on the camera quality are mixed though.

Apparently the screen is quite vulnerable, being only plastic.

I think the phone looks good and that but honestly imo it does feel like cheap plastic.

Kept thinking I was gonna break it.

Even when your opening and closing it, it feels really vulnerable [addsig]

I'll be damned if I'm getting up at 8.

Is it being delivered by royal mail or a courier service?

Usually if its royal mail it will come with your normal post.

Couriers are there about 9am

Well thats what its like with me

My normail mail doesnt come till 11am or something like that

Shocking [addsig]

Courier i'm 99% sure.

Yeah my postie keeps getting later and later. Was about 1pm by the time he got here today.

I added an extra note with the delivery details "please ring bell repeatedly, lazy teenagers live here"...hopefully he gets the message.
