Vodafone have confirmed the X1 release on 5th October. Not that I'll be getting it from Vodafone with all of the branding they slap on it. But hopefully the other networks won't be far behind.

I think I am going to find a Vodafone business store and check out how badly they have crippled the HTC touch Pro when it is available, just to see what we can expect from the X1 from Vodafone (I have an upgrade due!) when it is finaly set loose upon an unsuspecting users base. But why stock both the Touch Pro and the X1?

Forgive my lack of brains. Do Vodafone brand Windows devices as well?
X1 has had enough software problems as it is without the Vodagroan branding weighing it down.
I also hate videos like that youtube one on the previous page. What is the point of basically lying to the consumer? It looks SOOO fake. It will never run that fast or smooth. Just like the G900 promos, showing the phone run faster and smoother than a Desktop PC

Vodafone would "brand" their own employees and their children if the opportunity arose.

I'm not sure if they would brand the software, or whether it's possible to brand Microsoft software in such a way. I would imagine they would find a way.
But even if they couldn't, rest assured they would plant a load of logos over the phone - and that's something I certainly wouldn't want. lol

I think they would probably install a vodafone panel on the menu, and a horrendous voda logo on the exterior..
