> t610 on orange uk
Bookmark topic
had a phone call from orange uk today to confirm they expect the t610 to be available on there network at the end of the month beginning of june at the latest.
they were as usual unable to confirm pricing as this will no doubt be made up when they see how popular the phone is.
bit of good news and se finally sticking to a realse date what ever will happen next
java for the t68i hahaha just a joke before anyone starts another 10 threads on it

thanks for the info. i been contacting orange regularly about twice a week asking them if they got any info on release time. they did say that a few places like 'orange shop' or 'carphone warehouse' might be gettin these before official orange release, so chances are we might able get our grubby hands on a T610 around next week if we phone around !! i'm hoping anyway

It won't have been Orange calling you - especially since noone is customer facing departments has a date more specific than "May".
I can vouch for that.

Orange are rip off merchants, i cant believe I have to give them money every month for the shit service they give. And by the way Orange will have the phone last as usual as they cange the software and put their logo all over it. Expect it first on Voda or O2

Who cares about the Orange logos anyway,the13second trick got rid of them on my t68i and i now have the SE animation startup and shutdown:-)no doubt there will be a similar trick for the t610. As for when it comes out on Orange (19 May),i will wait till august when my contract is up and go 4 an upgrade! :-)
This message was posted from a T68i

@jonbob
waqs definatley orange as the number on the phone was the same digits as the customer service number. also i had e mailed the the upgrade department and the guy on the phone introduced himself as that.
could be a coicidence
@ gemini what makes you believe o2 or vodaphone will get it first
love orange or hate them they were the first network to get the p800 a good few weeks before the supposed big networks
you may still be right but i would rather wait for orange.
been with both o2 and vodaphone and find the service and quality to be crap never had a problem with orange.
but i know many will have had the opposite experience

Orange are drastically improving with handset launches - but I'm going to be honest with you, the guys in upgrades don't have a specific date.
@BOYI Where did you get the 19th from?

It would seem to me that Orange are going to be first with the T610 (as they were with the p800). etccomms.co.uk, an orange reseller, already have pricing up on their site (~£115 on upgrade). However they don't have an official release date yet but I am guessing it will be mid-late May or possibly early June.

Yes, if you're with Orange there's a chance you'll get your phone first...
But who wants a phone with an Orange sticker placed on it?
I'll wait for my unmarked phone, cheers anyway.
