After being shafted by one stop phone shop, i've been searching for the best deal on a UK based XDA II.
I've just found e2save.com who are doing the XDAII with 3 months insurance on o2 200 for £119. Thats the same deal as one stop were originally offering. Other best i can find is £139.
Anyone dealt with e2save.com? They offer 7 day return and price matching as well.
They quote the o2 200 tariff at £30.99, most other places quote £30. Is this because they have bolted on itemised billing?
I think o2's rule now is that contract has to be kept for 6 months isn't it, then it can be downgraded to a cheaper one.
The double talk and text they are offering at the mo runs out at the end of april. I presume that if i ordered a phone before then, but it didn't get delivered and connected until after, would i still get the offer?
Also is it 3 months doubled for the months after connection?
I will get an XDA II one day, if the offer is right!
cheers
The e2save deal sounds (as you say) comparable to the one that I got from OneStopPhoneshop ...
Do a search on eBay for seller "uncle-jamal" and he is selling XDA II's for £139 on O2 400, with other deals available - but not as good as e2save.
The only other seller I found (via this board) was Uplands, but they were not as good (price-wise) either.
One piece of advice - wherever you go, it may be worth making a quick phone call before placing the order to see if they actually have any stock - I gather that O2 cannot get enough of these models at the moment, and as a result I had to wait 3 weeks for mine from OSPS - it was worth it though.
HTH

When i spoke to mobiles2yourdoor, they said they order them in and there would definately be no problem getting one within 4 days!. I suppose once they've got your money, if there's a delay that's too bad.
I'll phone e2save and see whats what, but i'm sure most places like onestop will say they have them even if they don't just to get the customer.
phoned up e2save today and they said that there was a delivery of the xda II today (thats why the prices have gone up on their site!!)
Well i ordered the o2 100 traiff at £139 plus P+P. They charge £25.99 a month and you get free itemised billing. I pointed out its not free as your paying for it and you can't elect not to have the billing (which other shops allow you to do!)
3 months free insurance as well.
So it should be delivered wednesday, hopefully!
Hi,
Just ordered my from e2save via the phone mine is coming tomorrow, did you notice that the insurance was not being supplied via O2
" 3 months FREE insurance with Allianz Cornhill " with a £50 access and you have to cancel the insurance after the 3 months or the will keep on taking the £7.99 it out your bank
steve
What time did you order yours? I phoned at about 5.30pm, and they said i wouldn't get it until wednesday
yeah the insurance is pretty standard. Its free for 3 months, then you just ahve to cancel direct debit if you don't want it any more. I will probably drop it as its no better than my home insurance.
Shame its not like the old ornage insurance. Free, new phone in 24 hours wherever you are, and no excess, oh happy days
It annoyed me that they changed their offers just because they got stock in!
Hi ordered mine around 3 o'clock (uk) the girl on the phone said they had only just come in, she also said that there was more in stock,
My son who ordered one from Carphone Wharehouse was told that they had no stock on sunday but they shipped it on monday so perhaps a lot of place got some form of stock,
When i spoke to the O2 shop in Derby the guy said that they had a back order list of 10.
steve
Well came today as expected, so i'm happy with their service. Seemed to be the best deal around at the moment. needless to say in a week or so there will be a better one!
I got jerked around by onestopphoneshop too!!! :evil:
They accepted my first order on 23/4/2004, asked for utility bills and then just dumped the order without telling me anything, by phone, email, or whatever. I only discovered it when I phoned up to check the order on the 1/5/2004, no reason given. I re-placed the order immediately, but, ahh sorry sir they're now UK£20 dearer AND you have to have a 6 months 02 200 contract not 4 months as it used to be. B*STARDS!
Even then they tried to cancel the order twice as the first utility bill I sent them was a month out of date, and then they lost the second one. It was only frequent and persistent phone calls that got me it at all.
DON'T BUY IT FROM THEM! GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!
Oh, and the free car kit they send you with it? The XDA II is too wide to fit it.
best deals
Guys i went for mobileshop.com
I got my XDA II the next day! with O2 250 + 50 bolt-on for 37 a month
Their service is excelllent and I am a business user

Get them while there hot again, O2 stores have got an error on there POS system, which they are not able to correct untill Friday, consequently, you can get a new XDA Mini S (HTC Wizard) for only £79.99 on whatever Tarif you want, including the low price base ones, got my two upgrades free but with a £50:00 trade in of a crap old nokia got myself a third for £29.99 and an additional £7:95.
So I am now the proud owner of 3 HTC Wizards which cost me in total the princeley some of £29.99.
So don't miss out get down to the UK O2 shops with your crappy old trade inns now before they get the system fixed.
Thanks Chaps,
Regards Ash'e
Is this right? You can buy a non contract wizard for £80?
I'd be interested in one for development...

Hi - what did you have to supply to get the £50 trade in - just phone or other bits of kit?

No, he said on whatever tariff you like, so probably 10 or 15 quid a month and 79 quid outlay initially.
Blimey, if I'd have known that I'd have stuck with o2. Ah well, never mind, T-Mobile seems fairly good and cheap...
Trade Whatever you want
Hey Guys
you can trade in whatever phone you like, as long as it boots and as long as you have its charger.
Then you get £50.00 back taken of the £79.99 leaving you with just £29.99 to pay (bargain) but here the really good part, untill the end of the week you can put it on any tarrif you want including the low band ones starting at £16:00 a month. But hurry chaps they won't let this keep going on for long.
Best Regards - Ash'e
As an Added Bonus
Oh & forgot to mention as an added bonus O2 are also offering DOUBLE MINUTES & TEXTS for SIX MONTHS on all UPGRADES & NEW CONNECTIONS (BONUS SCORE)
Regards Ash'e
PS - (Can you really go wrong chaps considering the real value of the Wizard)
(& Think of what the other poor sods in the rest of Europe have to pay.)
(Now if we could only get an I-Mode browser for the wizard to take advantage of O2 great new service, Still I live in hope, O2 I-Mode is totally free till the first of January & I-Mail is Totally Free till April 2006 eclusive to O2).
This poor sod is on T-Mobile netherlands and paid 110 euro for a 1 year 150 minutes (21 euro a month) contract renewal...
That sucks for me. Because i have an online contract, i can't take advantage of any of these deals.
The upgrade centre don't even have the XDA mini on their systems yet!!
So angry
Just tried this on in my local O2 highstreet store and they wouldn't do it. They basicaly said 'thats obviosuly an error, f**k off'.
Oh well, at least I tried...
I called O2 for an upgrade and they said I could have the Mini S for free or the Exec for £150.
Yep - got my XDA mini with O2 - lowest tariff, traded in a broken mobile.
Scott
Where have you had sucess doing this? I tried a shop in central london and the guy wasn't having it at all!
Hmmm. I need to look for a discount airfare r/t over there. LOL
low airfare.
well, new york london for only £120 check cheapflights.com
ehehehe
Geez, I haven't been into UK since I bought my nickel plated, Metisse framed, two barreled weber carburated, side hack mounted Trumpet...and then left my wife and kids in the hotel to ride it back to Germany...in November. LOL
Man, those were the days..197?
Check out This
http://www.mobileswizard.co.uk/display.asp?hs=xdaminis&tariff=none
to compare O2 plans and how much you will end up paying if bought online
and this for T-Mobile
http://www.mobileswizard.co.uk/display.asp?hs=mdav&tariff=none
I like the info on the right saying "Min Term Cost"
gives you and idea of how much you will end up paying.
Still the tradein offer (if you get in 25 quid) is cheaper making it. £217)
Or even if you dont get trade in and have an offline tarif for £16 you will be paying £291.
Think anyone can beat that??????
let me know I am after the phone.
Call O2 Store Uxbridge
Just got mine yesterday form the O2 Store in Uxbridge, payed a grand total of £29:99 for it on upgrade, on my low tarif asked the same deal is available on new contracts, if you don't believe me call the store on (01895) 252163 ask for Greg (Nice Aussied Chap) and you will see. That other O2 store is talking BS,
Regards Ash'e
Well Done, just been down to O2 in Bath, got mine on O2 25 £16 per month, all the staff have bought one this morning as well. traded in crappy old sony phone. bye bye exec..
Richard
i just got an 02exec with a 19pound per month plan ...
is there a way to get the wizard for 29 pound only without signing up for more months?
what is an upgrade? i dont get it...
thanks
I'm new here (been lurking for a while) and in the process of haggling with my local O2 shop to match my previously bargained Orange tariff to a XDA mini and O2 tariff. Anyway...
Last night whilst browing i noticed that if you Select a XDA mini S on the O2 shop website, instead of being charged £79.99 on all plans, it comes up as £49.99 on all plans.
Hope this is of some use to somebody
Cheers
I thought you had to trade in an old phone to get them for fifty quid, but not if they're making mistakes (again)! :lol: Given the number of mistakes that O2 have made recently, I'm surprised they're still in business!
Good find. :wink:
Of use to me - many thanks! Kneale
whats the cheapest plan availabe :shock: ?
Just be careful they dont say it was a clear error and charge you £79. Bonus if you get it for £49 but maybe be prepared to pay £79.
Tell you what though £49 for a mini S is one hell of a bargain. Its a fantastic piece of kit. God I paid £50 for my nokia 3650. Also a very good phone in its day and still a good phone to be honest.
There is no mistake now as the price is shown as £49.99
In just a couple of weeks the price has dropped from £99.99 to £79.99 and now £49.99. At this rate it will be FREE in the next 4 weeks on contract.
Me being a student, I ordered it at a price of 54.99 on Friday and just had it delivered yesterday afternoon :?
Now the student price is less than 30 :x . Is there anything I can do about it? Also why is the price being halfed so rapidly? :shock:
Return it. Reorder on different card.
I'm yet to receive an order confirmation for mine...

Yeah gutted as I just paid £99 for mine just before christmas. You should get a refund if they drop it within a certain time of you buying it. £50 ive just wasted. Not buying a phone just before christmas again. Still got them back with the exec deal :wink:
I got mine instore for £79.99 with £30 back as trade in for an old broken nokia and charger on Data5 tarrif (5Mb data per month only - no calls or sms) at £9.something per month. So basically £50.
The guy in the shop never questioned my choice of data only tarrif. He also trusted me to come back with a mains charger as I took a car one with me.
It also seems they are not concerned about people re-flashing firmware and removing the O2 extended ROM (which makes the phone MUCH faster - I did it today). They will help you get your gprs and wap settings back after the flash
I bought one today - arriving tomorrow. One helluva deal! 49 quid for any tarriff - I went for the 12 month contract on the OnLine tariff £19 a month with 50 cross network minutes, 200 texts and 1Mb of downloads bundled in.
I also bought a 2Gb high speed mini SD from moby memory (http://www.mobymemory.com/proddetail.asp?prod=miniSD_2048mb_MOBY_001) for £87!
Bring 'em on!!!
... I did give the O2 shop a chance to match this deal. The best they could offer was a free phone on a £70 a month tarriff locked in for 6 months... and they were out of stock. :lol:
£87 for a 2 gig Mini SD is VERY cheap! Thanks for the link!
its 50 pounds now :S
Sorry Don't want to mislead anyone. I actually paid £49.99. Next day delivery was free though.
I just ordered one yesterday at 79.99, just seen this price drop info and ill be calling them tomorrow to tell them they best not be charging me 79.99 when its on the site a day later for 49.99!
Sizer, let us know what happens
Will do, just noticed the time of this post aswell. It was about 5-6 hours after I ordered it too!
Any chance the original poster can confirm what time they saw the offer??
Has anyone had their phone delivered within the last few days like me? I had mine delivered on 9/1/05. I ordered it on 6/1/05 though. I am hesitating a return as I do need it right now and have not yet emailed them. How exactly should I word it?
Price match? Re-imbursement? Refund? Don't want to sound like an @$$.
EDIT: actually I am going to email them...here goes nothing
Personally I am going to phone and speak to a person. Email isnt direct enough IMO. I will simply be stating :
That the price was dropped several hours after ordering and if they do not give it to me for the new price I will use it for 13 days and return it on the 14th. There is a 14 day cool off period. I will then inform them that after I have returned it to them they will have to then sell it on as 2nd hand/refurb and that I will place my order again for one at the lower price.
Under these conditions it would be far easier and more beneficial to them to alter my invoice accordingly and save wasting my time and their time/money. And if that fails, I will simply return it and go to another network operator that looks after the customers they already have rather than a company who just likes to get you as a customer then forget all about you.
If anyone does phone them be sure to make a note of the date/time of the conversation and get the operators name in case you need it for future reference. I have been caught out before simply because I could not provide these details...
I have been trying to get an upgrade for my tmobile account to flext20 + Web and Walk and a Vario II. I have agreeded a price but apparently you can't acutally order it untill they have some instock.
It was suppost to come in stock last weekend but last time called it still wasn't. They keep promasing to call me back when it comes in. But I still havn't herd anything.
As you can tell I am quite keen to get my hand on it. Reading this forum is not helping either with everyone talking about how good they are.
Has anyone managed to get a Vario II upgrade from T-mobile Uk (over the phone) this week.
Charlie
Just phoned T-MOBILE for the exact same thing and they told me that they should be getting stock back in maybe next week.... hope this helps
I ordered the phone + contract from t-mobile's website yesterday. I'm not upgrading though; I'm a new customer.
Got the out of stock message once I submitted my order request. A bit disappointed but not totally surprised. Usually in these cases I would cancel and go start looking in stores but I'm going to give t-mobile 3-4 business days.
Anyone else waiting for stock? I feel kinda cheated that they don't give delivery estimates. As far as we know they could not get them for months!!
Thanks
Thanks for the info. I have got fed up calling them every day, once there was a twenty minute wait. Still aslong as they eventually get some I will be happy.
Charlie
I was also told over the phone that they are out of stock. Since I'm a new customer they suggested ordering online and waiting for stock to arrive.
I'm looking forward to receiving it but not desparate yet!
In the mean time I ordered a leather case from www.pdair.com and a 1GB Micro-SD from MobyMemory.com
We need some insider info on when they're gonna get stock. I'm getting a bit desperate now, lol.
The most I know
The guy I first got through to (seemed pritty knowlegable) said they had in initial batch of a few hundred (for launch) but they were much more popular than expected.
He said they were now waiting on a bigger shipment, which should have arrived last weekend. He seemed pritty sure it was comming then (I don't think it was a random date plucked out of the air).
Everytime I have got through this week I got the same repsonce. It should have been with us by now, don't know when it will get here, this sort of thing happens. Makes you wonder if they have had to repeat that a lot this week.
Charlie
posting from phone. just got call fromk tmob web sales. no shipment till second week oct. cancelled order. gonna try some tmob stores in london.
bummer
This may be due to the screen issues and might not be a bad thing to get a functioning device.
tried flagship tmob store on oxford street. they told me its sold out there and at all other tmbo stores. possible delivery wed but seeing as tmob web isn't getting for two weeks, I find that unlikely. I think its becoming obvious we will not see these for a couple of weeks. gonna try the big vodafone store as well for the heck of it, although their tariffs suck.
I ordered off the web the other day but was told the same thing - ended up going into my local T-Mobile highstreet store (in Birmingham) and getting the handset there and then for £65 on Flext 25 with Web 'n Walk (27.50 a month).
nothing at vodafone but plenty sim-free ones on tott court road. only 490 inc VAT . adventure over. heading home.
I ordered a vario II from the website yesterday, 21st September, with flext 25 + web n walk, but got the email saying it was out of stock.
so i phoned them direct, and the guy told me, they'd be in next week.
but then i got a call today, 22nd September, and they said it wouldn't be available till second week of October, so I asked if I could just go to one of the T-Mobile stores and get one, but they just said they would be out of stock to, which according to you guys is true.
as far as I'm concerned there's no other better phone deal out there at the moment, o2 wanted to offer me a great deal, but still not as good.
100 mins, 500 texts, 200meg for only £25 a month.
which would be great if they could offer me the XDA Trion, but only could offer a XDA Mini S.
I'm just gonna wait it out.
After being told that T-Mobile Retail were out of stock, I just walked into my local store (the one on Corporation Street in the centre of Birmingham) and got one straight away, no hassle with stock availability or anything.
They'd probably be able to match the offer I got online as well if you tell them that you ordered but it was unavailable - I got my handset for £65 but I had to pay for the first three months of web 'n walk (there's only £2.50 difference in it once you tot the figures up). If you want your phone right now (and I needed mine there and then as my O2 contract runs out on Sunday!) then there's no harm in giving it a shot.
All the stores in the Newcastle upon Tyne area are out of stock....
Looks like we're gonna have to play the waiting game. This phone along with the unlimited internet t-mobile deal is really an amazing package, considering you can watch high-bitrate streams off the web from anywhere!
Looking forward for them to get it back in stock.

Unlucky mate looks like I might have been a bit lucky...
Don't you wish that mobile networks did 'courtesy phones' while you wait for the real thing! You start paying your tariff (but say on like, 2/3 rate) while you have your temporary phone, and then you could get your SIM then and there and start using it - and then your phone gets delivered to you and you start paying full whack again for your contract.
Course, none of the networks'll do it. Nah.
business
The business customer services are waiting to. The lady I am dealing with emails me each afternoon after 4 to tell there have been none in the delivery.
Bought mine in Guildford on Saturday . there were a few in the City last week (Cheapside & Fleet St).
Still playing with it. Hanging on to Tmob at the moment to get HSDPA switched on. do they ever answer the phone? i assume 150 is a free call or i'm going to run out on mins very soon!!
not free
150 is only free on certain tarifs - sorry - I got caught out at the begining with that too.
Today was supposed to be the day it launched, but O2 say it is TBC. However it has been available to order from their website since Friday. All very strange.
birmingham o2 store in the bullring have some in stock , all the best
Thanks for that, the Oxofrd Street (London) stores are hopeless. One said what is that, the other siad it had been cancelled, i told him that was the Zinc and he went to check with his manager.
They are clueless!!!!!
asked yesterday, who said just keep calling each day! nothing yet in oxford area.
Just been informed by O2 that the offical release date has been moved from 23rd April to 30th April
Which is a joke, as you can buy it on their website!!!!
But it says "Pay Monthly - £89.99 - Up to 14 days delivery" so i guess thats so it can take orders, without fullfilling them for a while. cheeky!
what sort of deals are you guys hoping to get? im upgrading from the xda mini s.
I would hope to get the handset free and pay around £35 a month including insurance...
I was on O2 Max £75 a month but at half price for 12 months (on a 12 month contract)
If they will do tha deal again then i will go with it, but i really want them to throw in a few more texts as well.
I also have a data bundle as well.
What are you guys getting, i like the idea of free insurance?
called today-still not available. will try again tmrw.
Called 8 times today, stock sheet was updated today at 2pm, no sign of it
Nothing in Exeter- they not even aware of this XDA!!!
Spoke to 202- nothing in stock, they don't know when will be available.
The thing is that they are not going to do ANY BETTER deals then those posted online... I haven't upgraded my phone (EXEC) for 7 months or so, paying my bill by DD and I'm getting same prices as everyone else.
Shame.
The other thing is that I'm happy with my EXEC but I need a new phone for my missus so Trion seems to be perfect...
Will try next week
Cheers
Chris
I got told it will be tomorrow. So lets see.
Spoke to O2 at around 3pm. Said that there was stock and that my Trion was sent today - should be here tomorrow (or Wednesday). I was told that stock was available yesterday as the person I spoke to issue one yesterday.
just orderd!!!
I was told that it will rel. on 30 so today i called to upgrade my contract with o2 trion and i got it!!!! it is in stock and will ship asap!
lets see i will let others know about it. I mean o2 packing etc. but on £35/m you have to pay £90/-
Why if i called 10 times today would they say they did not have it in stock?
Are they really that stupid?
@ theraq
If you were on an upgrade because your contract was due for renewal, why didn't you threaten to go elsewhere.
I did it with Vodafone back in Feb including sending a fax declaring my intentions to terminate the contract. I got a telephone call the next day with an offer of the V1605 free on a £25 p/m contract if I were to continue with Vodafone.
What kind of deal are you guys getting from O2?
DD, 8 months over contract, one of the oldest tariffs (35 quid/m but I've never paid less than 60-70), 3 years with O2.
What should I ask for? Send them an fax?
Cheers
Chris
Ordered yesterday - and arrived at 9am this morning. Good service.
Yes, I have one now. Really annoying customer service. Was to be delivered on the 21th, then the, 24th and then 26th. Finally got it Saturday morning on the 28th.
My initial impressions were good. However, I'm now having it door-to-door replaced. I've found a random issue with it whereby you will receive a text message and the messing software will not respond to the keyboard. The keyboard does work, because should I press Shift, then the 'C' notification appears. Should I press Space then the Start menu pulls down. It as if the messenging 'window' is not selected. The only way to get the keyboard working again is to soft reset the device. In doing so, you lose the text message you were responding to. Nice bit of data loss on a brand new device there. Hopefully the replacement will work. To test, I would do a hard reset but they want the device.
Will let you know what happens tomorrow.
I'm mainly interested in the UK buyers really, but I guess this thread could be useful for anyone if everyone posts where they got it and how much it cost?
I have a contract with 02 already and so have no choice but to buy the phone sim free. I have it pre-ordered through Play.com so is setting me back £520. This will be the first time I've bought a phone without my provider having given me it for free/nominal fee...I'm having a hard time coming to terms with such an outlay. I could buy a laptop for this price! I still want it though, it looks great!
i pre-ordered mine from clove - cost 482 pound with dhl shippment to croatia.
Will preorder tomorrow from www.digitec.ch.
Cost: CHF 689.- (with renewal of my subscription).

I am thinking of doing the same thing as this would be my first phone sim free too as well as windows mobile and although it is a lot I worked out that it could be cheaper then you think. As I put into the equation that if I got this from T-Mobile I would have to pay about £100-£150 for the phone plus my phone bill would be around £35-£45 per month on an 18 month contract.
But if I bought the HD sim free and changed to the t-mobile sim only deal (£25) I could save around £300 plus having to pay around £100 for the phone it comes to a total of around £400 or even more.
So in a way it does not cost that much but the only problem is paying a big lump sum rather then spread it out (thanks Capital one for your 0% interest until November 09).
My only problem is who to buy from?
I'm probably going to be getting one from Expansys along with a T-Mo web'n'walk contract.
I am in the same boat. I am only 8 months in on an 18 month contract with 3 network. I really want the phone. At £500+ for the handset and then just use my USIM in it (hoping it works and is compatible) seems a lot. However I could by a second contract with O2 and get the phone free on a £35 contract and pay around £580 in total for an 18th month contract overall. So for £80 more I get lots of minutes and texts over 18 months as opposed to nothing at all when just buying the handset. Decisions decisions.
Speaking from the other side of the pond...I preordered mine a month ago from Expansys USA for $885CAN, which at the moment is 453GBP. Not bad considering they want $1100CAN now.
i pre ordered mine from www.pdaplaza.ca last week at $940can , i will get it tomorow, they now sell it for $971 can
Pre ordered mine from here: http://www.algebeld.nl/index.php?Pa...tegories=0&ProductPlusProducts=0&DataBundel=0
I have also ordered an 8GB micro SD from Play, but wouldn't mind finding out if the UK sim free ones come with one, as another guy on this forum from NL said his did.
I've justified the cost to myself by the fact that I have sold two of my old phones and will 'only' need to put £220 to it to make up the balance.
I'll buy mine from o2 germany, because I have contract there. I hope that its coming this week, I'm soooooo curious.. I want it!!! So, I'll have to pay 290€ for it (in terms of contract, with 30€ per month), I think this is ok. Greez, cad^^
Wow! Guys in Canada can have their Touch HD's by tomorrow!!! awesome!
please do post ur reviews here once u get them. I am really concerned about its navigational capabilites, coz of lack of the DPAD.
I want to order the phone in USA, as my cousins staying in Manhattan will have to get it for me in December.
Long wait for me!
PS: PLEASE suggest me some "non-ebay Online Stores" where i can buy the Touch HD, with a creditcard.
Thanks.

Did you call O2 customer support about it? I am also thinking of ordering it from O2 if it's really true that they sell it for 559 without contract. I have a contract but I renewed it just this spring.

No, unfortunately I didn't call them, but many in the internet say that its possible to come even earlier because the release was earlier, too in netherlands. So I still hope, if not, its sure to come next week, absolute latest in two weeks. Thats my information I have.. You can belive me, I'm sitting on fire, I really want this device greez, cad^^

If I do go for the Touch HD (considering SE X1 too - difficult choice), then I would probably (at this point) get it from Mobiles.co.uk.
I phoned up and told them that Orange have exclusivity on it in the UK (until 01 Jan 09 I believe).
However, the guy (who wasn't that informed it seemed) said that if it was on the site then it was authorised for sale.
Also, I saw on one website, a recent post said that with tariffs on O2 above 600 minutes, you get free web access as an "O2 Bolt-On". Seems like a good deal.
Unfortunately, O2 itself will have no stock and I've been out of my contract for 1 month now waiting for the X1 to come out. Therefore, I'd have to get a new contract, and a new number (you can't transfer an O2 number to a new O2 number provided by a third party I think).

I decided to go for O2 from mobiles.co.uk, as 600mins with a free internet bolt-on is a sweet deal. Only time will tell if they manage get around the exclusivity deal but I'd rather peel my face off than sign up to Orange's garbage contracts with a data package that is cat vomit.
Got mine this morning from www.pdaplaza.ca in montreal, i just love it
