Can those of you that are on a Vodafone contract, please confirm to me how you got hold of your handset (shop or directly on the phone) and whether you are a personal or business customer? I want to get my facts straight before I call them back.
Vodafone released the W960i on 2nd January. I got mine from my local branch on a free upgrade and was also able to get an online tariff. I am a personal customer. My local store has so far only sold one, to me lol.

does anyone have any idea of battery saving or usage when you use either of the available options:
1) gsm only
2) 3g only
3) gsm and 3g
is there really going to be that much of a difference in battery performance between the 3?
(not specifically on the w960 but phones in general).

Is there any way of turning off the + symbol that appears as the first option on predictive text?

if you have a poor 3g signal in your area forcing the phone to constantly (try to) connect turning 3g off will save the battery somewhat, i always turn 3g off.

@5H4K, nope
@indup
like mention before, if you not plan to use video call and such, why have 3g? keeping connections with 2 networks gsm/3g takes more battery, and lower the screen brightness helps alot i always lower mine to like 40-50%

i surf the web on the phone using 3g maybe a dozen times during the day, it just seems a pain to have to always be changing the connection.

@indup
then just adjust the brightness it gives you some boost.
read somewhere that you cold use a p1 battery, was suposed to be "more powerfull" but that was just something i read.
