Brad you're refering to the K600...on of the smallest 3G to be released this year. On other threads I heard it might be out next month in the UK... On Vodafone it will be branded as the V600i. You should note though that this phone comes without expandable memory and has got more or less the same memory as the K700. Wouldn't you rather want to wait for the K800(Sakura), the 3G successor to the K700.

@gilani... Can't give you an answer to the first question but can tell you that currently there aren't any SE phones available that are EDGE-enabled. Your best bet is probably the Nokia 6230, 6630. You can also check out some of the latest models from Motorola which come with EDGE.

@Tahir don't talk to loud ! Someone may believe you ! 3.5G only support speeds of up to 2.4mbps ! And that only under 'ideal' conditions.Even worse,not even Nokia (market leader as of today) have any plans of supporting it ! The only thing they've mentionned is WIMAX and even those phones only come in 18-24 months :-(

I've got a PAYG MTN sim so haven't experienced any problems connecting to Prodigits. Also experienced the same problem initially trying 2 connect 2 Prodigits with my new phone but it's been resolved.

Greetings, fellow SA cyber-connections.
Die is my oorspronklike esato naam, nie langer die vorige ou uthetha nie, want daar is vir my beduie, deur die esato generale, dat ek kan nou NET my ou rekeningnaam gebruik. Ek was eerlik met hulle, maar...
So ek sal nou probeer soet wees en nooit die 'cardinal sin' van laffenland weer pleeg en n nuwe rekening oopmaak nie...(oh,please..ek verstaan hul punt en het om verskoning gevra, maar sy gedrag was effens k@kerig...)
In the words of 'Mad' magazine's Alfred E. Neuman, "What me worry?.."
Anyway, life in Soutieland goes on, but it will be good to be back in CT for a while next month.
We will be staying in J-Bay for a while Mario, on our way to EL. Is your brother still getting you a 6680 from Deutschland?
@ Tahir, I'm impressed to hear that the Samsung Z500 is on the way to SA. They are not even mentioned in the UK's carphonewarehouse's 'coming soon' section yet. Gr8.
