Orange put their own version of manual, their own version of firmware, and who can say that they are bulk buying chargers for their phones? Why is the orange t200 unaffected?
This message was posted from a T610

OUTPUT:5.1V - 450mA

Get real. I just replaced my 3 year old T68m with T610. Neither Phone nor charger exploded. I am now charging my new T610 with old T68 charger

sounds terrible...
however this is highly unlikely to happen...as there are protect circuits in the charger...
in fact phone battery also has protection circuits in it in case they are accidentally short...
could it be someone out there trying to pull a fast one...?!?

I am with jonbob on this one...... I don't think it beyond Orange to just have run out of chargers
Anyway... no explosions reported. And personally.. I would think that orange would think twice about saying such a thing without thorough proof to back up the story..... (the word lawsuit ringing in my ears)
I'm thinking it's an Orange problem
[EDIT] I passed by the Orange shop on my way to work and
phones are for sale
Guess there are still enough European chargers in stock the eh?

Once having read this thread I thought I would call orange just to see if there was any truth to the problems with the chargers.
They say at the moment they have cancelled the T610 on upgrade and Pay monthly/pay as you go. Yet they are not recalling any of the sold phones.
The women told me that it is a problem with a recent batch of chargers. When I asked if they are dangerous, she replied that they are just faulty.
I would also like to thank every one at this site, for the useful info you have provided me with.
You have helped me make the decisions on what mobiles to buy for my last two mobiles (T68i, T610). As I have been following Esato for a year now.

From 'The Orange List'

Next week Sony Ericsson will announce a recall of certain chargers, the faulty ones say "Made in Thailand by Delta" on them. I think it's the small type of charger only which is affected. However full details and what to do will be announced next week and there will be advertising to support this.
