Nope, because it was a T-Mobile upgrade. If I could get a refund I would. Then I'd wait a month or so and then upgrade!

mine was an upgrade to with Orange but via CPW.
You should be able to get a cancelation of the new contract signed for the upgrade unless they can offer you a phone you want in its place.
I will go for this and then upgrade when the N82 is in stock.
Don't forget, upgrade or not - sale of goods act and fit for purpose. This phone does not work currently. 3 phones all exhibiting different faults and build issues.
Its a shame, all my previous SE phones have worked nearly flawlessly. I love SE phones. But they have lost the plot on this one and I have signed a contract to pay Orange a monthly fee to cover the air time and phone cost.
The K850 cost me nothing up front - a free upgrade. But I will not live with it for a year in its current state. I cannot afford to wait for FW updates as i use the phone for business and after spending 7 hours in the car today and being unable to speak to customers - loses me business.

Still testing.

Mine seems to be perfect compared to some of the horror stories on here however there is definitely many quality control issues with some.
I hope you guys get it sorted out.

When SE brings out their next 'big' phone, I think everyone should go with plankgatan to buy theirs.

Plank... lucky for you and your mates... really I am so glad your happy with your K850.
Just to add to what I wrote below :
Bluetooth audio still crackles and repeats. Seems its 037 causing this as 029 worked great in this respect - just in others it was rubbish.
So, as I spend lots of time in the car on handsfree, this phone looks like it will be useless - good cam or not. Unless there's an update that fixes the phone before mid next week, its back it goes and I move brands to something that I know from others reports will work.
sigh... SE have lost it on this one and will loose a loyal customer.
