Heeey, i got a sonyericsson v800 too!!

It all started this morning, I called singlepoint (which is part of vodafone) asking them for contract (didn't know the v800 is released), so I got the offer for P910i for £90 , with £30/mo contract 200 free minutes x-network. I thought not bad, and was about to complete it but then i just though of askin em about the v800, he told me it's released and i was like woooowwwww.

Well, i asked him about the 3G tariff, he said it's £40 for 500 minutes x-network, 100 txt messages, 30 minutes of video messaging (or was it 40?) and some other extras for downloadin music etc.... AND THE PHONE WOULD ONLY COST £50!!!!

I RAAAN to the store, once i got there I went directly to contracts and.... What the Hell!! They gave me the same offer, but the phone costs £150 !!
I went out and called singlepoint again, and another guy answered. And this time too, He said the phone costs £150!!

I thought there's somethin wrong over there.. I hungup, waited 10 seconds and called singlepoint again. This time another guy answered and told me the phone osts £50 , again for the same offer!! This time, I DIDNOT hangup. Completed the contract and will recieve the phone tomorrow P

The only drawback from singlepoint is you can't move your vodafone line if you have pay-as-you-go (my case), so i'm getting a new number.

For those who are wondering, the 3G phones vodafone is offering all work on both 3G networks, and the regular GSM network (except for download and video calling). so no worry's about that.

So, my turn to ask q's now isnt it??
First, I read about this ICE-30 classic case. Is it only a case or does it clip to the belt?

2nd, what do you all think of the competitor of the V800 : the nokia 6630?

Waitin for all the replies.

Not to depress you but I'd double check which tariff you have been signed onto over the phone. AFAIK the 3G Hero tariffs (£40 for 500 mins, £60 for 1000 mins) are only available in store and the V800 costs £150 on both of them. The only tariffs that it is £50 on are the standard Anytime 500 and 1000 tariffs that are £50 and £75 respectively - also the promotional 3G bundle that is added to those standard tariffs only runs for 3 months rather than the lifelong bundle for the Hero tariffs. That's how it worked for Vodafone Ltd anyway - Singlepoint *might* have tweaked their tariffs. You may have just got lucky of course and got onto a 3G hero tariff and paid less for your phone as well - lucky get if you have!

The Nokia 6630's crap- it doesn't even support video calls, 3G's biggest selling point! You think they'd learn from the 7600...

TryNiX, do you have a phone number for Singlepoint? I've gone thought their website but cannot find one anywhere. Thanks!

The nokia 6630 does! support video call. It like "you see what I see" because there is only a camera at the back, so you can show the person on the "other side" what you see. But nokia will release a clip on camera so the other person can see your head instead (if they want to)
