This is nothing new.

Going on Symbian Experience Nokia always take about a week to release the CV firmware for the UK.

Also as a warning if this is anything like symbian firmware releases then it will be up to Vodafone to download, bastardise and then test and release the firmware which could take anything from a couple of weeks till a month.

My money will be ok the UK CV code be updated first then this thread getting filled with whining Vodafone users.

Nothing for me yet in UK, hopefully will be some point this evening.

I cannot see Vodafone having any hand in this as my phone has nothing to do with them despite being on their network, they can't slap their branded stuff onto it.

I too am waiting for UK firmware and frankly am sick of seeing other people in the same situation being called trolls, whiners etc.

We paid the same (if not more) money as everyone else did for their devices so why should we expect any less than the prompt delivery of the firmware that everyone else has had?

As ever Nokia refuse to provide any information on the process or why there is a delay so with no information, no timeframe and no good reason for the delay, of course people are going be frustrated.

mine is through voda and from a voda store, apart from the 205 firmware code there is no other branding.

Yep, usually they put lots of crap on like the N95 I had which was terrible for battery life until I debranded it.

Apart from the APN details I can't see any branding at all even on the hardware there are no badges.

Here's a bit of wild and woolly speculation. Jusy 'cos I like starting rumours. There's a pic floating on twitter of an 'iplayer app' for the BBC. And we all know that BBC iplayer services are only available to bona fide Brits who pay their licence fee.

Ergo it's perfectly obvious that the UK version is being delayed by a shiney new iplayer app, and they can't publish it as Spencer Kelly won't let them release the iplayer component until it can make him look sensible. Which means a looong wait...

Hey, if they're going to keep me hanging on like this, I'm going to get wilder and woollier in my speculations, right?
