dilema!!!

entwisi · 17-06-2008, 09:19

right, I've sold my N95 as I am ready for a new contract. Currently with O2 and the call quality is rubbish even with full signal on 4 different phones so I've had enough of them. PAC code arrived this morning so I'm all set and ready to rumble!!

Now I had set my mind on the Vodaphone v1615(aka HTC TYTN II) on a £35/month contract as I get the phone for nowt and it includes 500mb/month of data. On top of that voda is the only network with a strong signal at my desk.

the dilema.....

The 'new improved' TYTN II ( Diamond Touch Pro ) has been announced and is set for September release. Now its rare for a phone to get to market on expected date and by the time voda get it in their range its likely to be October or even November. The new version has a number of tweaks that I can really use ( VGA screen res, faster processor, more RAM, improved video drivers etc) but November seems like an age away.

Should I wait or should I buy the current one!

HELP!!!!!!

iPhone 3G might have been OK if it wasn't locked to O2, had bluetooth, had a decent camera, wasn't Apple.... One of the major reasons I'm changing is I'm sick of having a marginal signal at my desk. As we have a Voda mast on teh building its full strength but all others are 1/2 bars at best. Outside its fine but inside they all fall to nothing.

thanks for your help there Neil, it was ......... no help whatsoever!!!

why not just wait Ian and get yourself a cheap one in the meantime?

I have a decent phone for now, its the fact I want to move to voda thats making me stall. If I go 'now' on a contract I can't take the free phone when its out. If I go on a cheap voda contract for now I can't then keep my number when I start the new phone contract ( you can't start a new contract and keep the number from the same network)

Hi Ian
If you've put up with for so long, whats wrong with waiting a bit to get what you want.
Patience is a virtue found in men and never in women

Get it now.

Im the same cant wait I want I get.

Insure it with Voda

When the new one comes out say the one you have is playing up and can they send the new one in replacement.

entwisi · 17-06-2008, 11:28

nah, that would be fraud, I'm too honest to do stuff like that
