I've just phoned the Oarnage shop near me (Manchester) and they say they are due delivery today so i guess we'll find out then
But also i was just thinking, if you look on the Orange sitetheir pic of the w800 is just the standard orange/white colour so maybe it will be no diff after all

thats what I understood too but I got a vodafone one this morning and although its not sim locked and does accept any MP3 as ringtone it still has 5 locked and non changeable data accounts, and 3 wap profiles which are locked and non changeable, and the internet icon takes you to vodafone live
I'm now deciding whether to take it back or wait for the unbranded firmware on davinci etc

if you take it back would you get another one? and how would you manage to get one unbranded?

I'd probably go to carphone warehouse for the upgrade as they tend to give unbranded ones, especially if I ask.
The alternative is to wait until the online firmware services (davinci etc) have the unbranded firmware available as its an easy task to do it that way
sorry, I have no idea what the orange branding is though

So if i was to go to CPW i could just ask for an unbranded handset eventhough i will want it on orange pay monthly contract?
