@francoislr: DVB-H is NOT streamed to your phone...it's broadcast. That means you get a special transmitter for DVB-H programming and service is not dependent on 3G.

Oh, cool! Now just wait, sure they will find a way or reason for people to pay through their noses anyway:)

Hopefully DStv don't get a monopoly on DVB-H and ICASA licences some few other players who could provide a service.

Thanks Guys.
Unfortunately the voda software is very buggy. Doesn't retain settings etc. The Icons aren't half as bad as they are on the k750, the look very similar to the SE ones. But still.
Who needs 2 vodata menus? Really! Other than that and the 5!!! game DEMOS! I'm really happy. It's gorgeous and works like a demon.
If I get the opportunity i'll debrand it. but for now, I have no real complaints.

Has anyone seen these phones? It is some SmartPhone someone at work brought my attention to. It is very similar to Imates, probably the people who made the imates. So, wanqa, see if you can find out anything...The brand is called HTC. Here is a link to a phone the guy at my work wants to buy...

@francois: It's the HTC TyTN (pronounced Titan)...AFAIK it's not available through the networks but as an import at around the same price you would pay for a P990. The TyTn comes with everything you could wish for...HSDPA, Windows Mobile 5.0, 3G/EDGE and a host of features that makes the P990 look out-dated.

I may have mentioned this before, but HTC is owned by none other than Microsoft.
That also explains their Windows 5.0 operating system preference as well.
A lot has been said about the TyTn's impressive features and being readily compared to the P990i on esato:
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=127261
It is carried by some networks here, eg. Orange:
http://shop.orange.co.uk/shop[....]e_spv_m3100/detail/pay_monthly
and T-Mobile:
http://www.t-mobile.co.uk/Dis[....]view&menuid=ctl_phones_details
..and bundled as the HTC TyTn with O2:
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/o2/11200.htm
...or sim-free from them or expansys, etc.
There are some sold on esato's market forums in these guises(and on ebay); they are relatively easy to debrand and unlock too...and are also roughly £100 cheaper to buy than your average P990i.
I have considered a TyTn, but never warmed to Windows 5.0 when I had the SPV C550. To be fair though, I haven't tried out a TyTn yet, so maybe this afternoon will provide a few opportunities.
EDIT: If bought sim-free and not as one of these branded/ network guises, then brix is right on the money (excuse the pun); they are nearly the same price as a P990i then.
