> Question on P990 network:
Bookmark topic
Hello there,
I currently have a P900 for over a year now. Did not buy the P910 because the difference from the P900 was not that different so I was waiting for the model after the P910. Now that the P990 has been officially released I am thinking of getting that when its out in the UK.
I read that it is 3G Phone but does anyone know which UK 3G network is it on? Theres 3g, Vodafone 3G, Orange 3G, etc. So which one will it be on?
The reason for the question is because im thinking of going on the 3G contract network sometime after x-mas. If its on 3G maybe I can get that on the upgrade after 12 months is up, etc.
Thanks for the help guys!

I'm not sure any networks have announced the P990 yet but you can be fairly sure that vodafone and orange will be selling it.
Whether 3 will support it is another question...

or you could buy any phone on a 3g contract, sell it on ebay, and buy an offline handset only P990 like I'm going to do

if you're suggesting using the sim you get with the phone from 3 in the P990 then I have to ask... will it work?
I'm sure I have read here several times that 3 block access to any phones that they don't approve? is that right? (worth checking anyway)

Hm...I guess selling the contract mobile on eBay for the cash towards the P990 is not bad but im guessing the P990 will be about £550. The same as P900 and P910 when they were first released.
I bought my P900 on handset only for £350, dont fancy buying another £300+ mobile! lol...students are poor! lol

Ok went to vodafone store today to ask them about their contracts.. as i want to start one with the 9300 but it doesn't have wifi. (I don't really but was just seeing what he'd say). As he saw i already had a p910i, he told me best thing was to wait untill the upgrade. I asked if this was the p990 and he agreed.
Then i said i didn't want to wait till MARCH (First month that popped into my head) And he said they should have it for sale much before then...
... So we could see this in stores Jan/Feb
