And I am really pissed off as guess what Voda have done to the white w900???
There is a bloody great RED VODFONE logo on the bottom of the front under the screen!!!
and it's a Voda Live handset with fully customised operating system, so much for not playing with the Walkman phones.
I played with one today, and then cancelled my order, Arse!

I honestly don't see what you're so pissed off about. It's called marketing and GSM Carriers here in the states use it all the time. Anytime you buy a phone from a carrier, be it T-mobile, Cingular, Sprint, Verizon, they all come with the carrier's logo, regardless if you pay full price with no contract or with a 1 or 2 year contract (discount on the phone).

I have to admit I don't like the excessive customising of phones by service providers either, Voda do take the piss!!
There's nothing against putting your settings in the phone, perhaps a small logo somewhere on the phone and change an icon, but Voda go too far, and T-Mobile are headed in the same direction!

I think it looks abominable.
I can't say the handset looks good in white at all plus I am completely against such complete branding of the phone. Am I right in assuming some of the features will be culled from the original, such as the built in IM client and the ability to upload MP3s as ringtones etc
Horrid!!
