just to point out to people, that if you buy the w900i on any network other than vodafone, i.e through independent sites who just sell simfree versions with a contract, then you will get no support from the networks to do with the phone.
wouldnt bother me, but it may some people.
Also, it was confirmed earlier today, that due to no other networks taking on the w900i apart from voda, and as such no support for it from them, a user loaded up orange world on their w900i and it only displayed text links, none of the image links etc that you would get on a phone which was supported by orange, it seems it may be a similar scenario with O2active portal etc too

Not too bothered about this, as when the s700 first came out, t-mob did not support yet i still bought it. So I am used to this:)
Plus not bothered about voda getting it cos am getting it sim free anyway,
only thing is, will it be possible to buy the white one simfree???!!

Can anyone confirm a source that this phone will only be released on Vodafone and no other UK network?
EDIT: The release of the w900i is still showing as Dec05 on the Voda website!

Hi Guys. I brought the W900i from a online retailer on a O2 CONTRACT and have been informed by them that is being delivered to my home today (01/12/05)!
http://www.buymobilephones.net. It cost 39.99 on a 12 month O2 Contract. I need to ask a favour. I am new to putting videos on a phone. Can anyone lead me to step-by-step direction of converting?

jon morris who is an editor(i believe) for what mobile magazine in the UK has confirmed that it will only officially be released by voda on contract.
As i said before and the poster above confirms, you can get it from independent retailers on other networks, but you will have no support from the network for the phone, and the networks wap portals may not be fully compatible with the phone, as is the case with orangeworld.

Just to say that yes these are sim free as most O2 and Voda handstes provided by independant dealers are.
Also that the retailers that I have listed have sold lots of these already so I have had to put on some deals that these are Limited stock after only 1 day on sale so if you want a sim free one with or without contract then I would advise you to buy ASAP!

Does anyone know for certain if the W900 can play mp3's as message alerts (SMS/MMS) aswell as using mp3's for ringtones?
Thanks
