Our Nokia rep rekons Vodafone has a 6 month exclusive deal for the N900, as for other networks selling it, we'll have to wait and see, I don't see O2 stocking it as they spent all their £££ on the iPhone and Palm Pre.

may be a silly question but would carphone warehouseconsider upgrading before the 10th Feb? Or are they very strict on this?

I am happy with my vodafone service but will look into getting a sim free phone and a sim only contract, but i doubt i can afford it at the mo. I know it will work out about the same in the long run but I just dont have that money lying around.

Thanks again guys

i got my n900 direct from voda and it arrived on all networks so it dont come barred on other networks but its maybe true about the vodafone firmware thingy but again vodas the only company to supply on contract so why wud dey hold bak on any firmware updates??
