Yep - it looks like someone (either SE or Orange) has blocked the AT commands as well!!
Is there anyone here with a non-orange K700 care to try it. It does no harm, the commands are only checking that the commands are supported. They work fine on T68 and T610

Here's the reply from Orange to my complaint about the K700i
Thank you for your mail received 16th July regarding the Sony Ericsson K700i.
I was sorry to learn that you are unhappy with your new phone.
It would appear that O range have reduced some functionality of the phone and this has been escalated to technical support. We are investigating this to determined why this function was removed and if it will be restored in the future.
Although I can understand your frustration I am unable to reply to your mail at present. We are waiting for some kind of resolution from our technical team before we can advise further.
If you require further information please call the help desk on 07973 100 150 for pay monthly, or 07973 100 451 for pay as you go where a representative will be pleased to assist. Our operators are available 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
I trust the above information is of assistance.
Kind regards

If this is passed to Technical Support does that mean they have realised they have messed up big time and they are relenting

hello folks, this is seriously putting me off changing my t610 for a k700i. the left toggle on the joystick to write msgs is one of the best features on the t610. thinking seriously about going onto o2. rgds jon

Hey guys, im new and have been reading the forum for a while! i got my orange k700i 2day, and have cancelled it and am returing it tommorow! not happy with the branding at all! no need for 2 camera buttons and the little icons on the desktop are annoying! also i noticed that when you switch the phone on, the "calls" and "more" options are there, but after a few seconds the orange os kicks in and they change! not happy at all!

Can I check something please - seems I have got a bit confused!!
Are you all saying that on the Orange K700 it is IMPOSSIBLE to change the shortcut(s) for the joystick, or that it is just difficult because the icon has been removed?
Cheers
