tbh, I read everything everyone had to say about it.
9 times out of 10 it would be somone complaining.
It depends if you would rather pay around an extra £90 to get rid of a 5 second Orange introduction, enable shortcuts (nothing major at all - you dont notice it if youve never had it) and a more button instead of an easy access camera button. You also have a small removable / replaceable sticker at the bottom of the phone with Orange on it, a tint of Orange on the menus and Orange Downloads and Orange World as the wap links.
Sound a lot? lol, its nothing at all.
Personally, if I had the chance between an Orange PAYG Branded K700i and a Unbranded K700i and money was still something to consider id go Orange. If I was a rich man id go for the Unbranded, but then again who wouldnt?

im assuming you can add more wap profiles, just in case i change network in the future.
thats what i hate about phones that have over the top branding you feel a fool seeing orange/voda etc names and logos everwhere when youre on another net.

Yeh, you can change the wap profiles in seconds. Just go to add and fill in the details.
You can also get the Orange logo at the bottom replaced, if you get your firmware updated at a SE Service Centre ask them if they have any Quickshare labels left and they will replace it for you.
If you like to keep your phone under warenty you need to keep the branding for a year, but once the warenty is up you can get it unbranded and unlocked very easily. If you dont care about the warenty, you can do it as soon as you get the phone.
