Because it's on their service. It's like why people decorate their houses and modify their cars. It's to show that it's theirs. This message was posted from a T616

I have 2 concur with sonu on this issue. Thankfully the networks in South Africa haven't( or won't do it) It really messes up a beautiful fone...ie SE F500...it's UGLY with all that Voda branding. This message was posted from a T300

Its the price you pay because networks offer a discount on the phones (well sometimes anyway). This way you are locked into using their services, ie the lack of MP3 ringtones on K700i on Voda UK.

i cant believe they did that... its just taking it too far dont you think? i dont mind the logos and the general coulor changes but removing features is a step too far in my opinion.
