i have seen a coming soon page on the order where it claims that this handset will be released on three uk just wandering if anybody could shed some light on this? :confused:

[3g-g]

I'd say Orange are going to be one of the first with this handset (although I am prepared to eat my hat)... and it looks mighty nice, the smallest and lightest 3G handset in the world today at only 95g.

[Jon3G]

yes it looks very nice and it hopefully it will have some decent functions

[bagpuss102002]

i agree it does look most impressive!

[Jon3G]

I am not a 3 hater, but I cant this coming out on 3 for a long while.

[Jon3G]

looks impressive, but you will have to come away from 3 if you want it

[bagpuss102002]

well i mean it says three due but u can never get a answer from them! so i dont know if i should wait or not

Phones4U have it as 'coming soon' on 3.

[bagpuss102002]

cheers scottish user! do u think it will be very long before we see it here?

[bagpuss102002]

scottish user ive just poppped onto phones 4u but all i can see in coming soon is the handset on vodafone no mention of three is there a link to the site u saw?

[3GScottishUser]

Had another look and it seems to have vanished!

Definately seems to be available on both Vodafone and 02. 02 also have the Samsung Z 130 on their website. http://shop.o2.co.uk/cgi-bin/o2uk/jsp/handsets/3GPhones.jsp

Phones4U have it as 'coming soon' on 3.


phones 4u also had the Z1010 as coming soon back in September. Its just a ploy to get your details and through the door so they can seel you something else

IC - I got an unsolicited call from one of their Asian call centres the other day trying to sell Homecall.

Annoying that they are using contact details to try and sell more stuff especially when you tick the boxes saying no contact from them!

[Jon3G]

its very hard to proof were the company got your details from and its even harder when the company is based abroad.

The TPS (telephone preference service) should be able to help if you register with them.

[bagpuss102002]

those dirty scandrawls they have offended my honour and dignity lucky for my i have a alias so when they ring asking to speak to mike hunt i shall laugh and no exactly where they got it from! :D

[bagpuss102002]
