Re: w950 When?

Hi. Been waitng for this phone for months!!! It's up on the 3 Ireland website for being released this month(10 days left), along with the W850i, which is a out a while in the UK. I've seen offers online for vodafone UK new contracts. Obviously that don't apply to me. I'm getting desperate for this to be released & I don't know why. I thought about getting a N73, but I think the Walkman 2.0 software, bluetooth 2.0 and the 2.6" touchscreen keep swaying me back. If you are really desperate this phone can be had off fleabay for €1,000. Personally, even if it's November, I'll probably go for it. I hope it's the right choice over an N73 How badly do You want it, considering it was announced in February last?

Re: w950 When?

Was considering one of these myself, last date i got was Mid November on Vodafone. other networks a week later

(got bored waiting and got an N91 instead)

If you're really desperate the M600 on Vodafone is virtually identical

Re: w950 When?

Nice one. Had a phone call not long ago from Vodafone about upgrading and I asked about a Vodafone release date and was told the 23rd, but obviously not guarenteed.

Re: w950 When?

My local CPW is advertising the same thing but they haven't actually got it on Vodafone yet and theres no prices on the system for Vodafone either. Ask them next time bet they tell you the same thing.

Re: w950 When?

I work for Vodafone. I’ve checked our stock reports and the W950 is definitely available now.

It hasn’t been updated on the website yet, so you’d need to get one in store or over the phone.
