Guest dazza12 Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 It looks like it's not a mistake, as they've mentioned it in the blurb above the list as well - 30 channels. It looks like they've either launched DVB-M over there or they're streaming it over 3G. It's nice to know every Orange company is identical in every country - NOT!

Guest rickyburke Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Yeah! and i just looked at the M2000 page and they have software updates and all sorts, nice to know Orange can sort out problems for some customers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dazza12 Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 I mentioned this when I lodged a complaint with Orange some time ago. The official line is that it's a different company and each one operates in it's own way. So what's the point of rebranding everything owned by France Telecom as Orange if they're all different beneath the surface? Ended up getting a new M2000 with a newer ROM. But they still maintained there wasn't a newer ROM available for download. That I don't understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Larnsky Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 The live TV might refer to the Orange 3G TV that they do, i didn't think it was as many as 30 channels at the moment but you can watch selected live TV for £10 a month i think. I was under the impression it was only available on certain phones at the moment the Nokia 6680 being one of them, but it may well be compatiable with the M5000. Perhaps i should emigrate to get my hands on a M5000! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rickyburke Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 so presumably if its available over 3g, then we will be able to access it as well? or will the credentials be altered so we can't access it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Larnsky Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 This is what i was talking about Orange 3G TV Don't know if they intend to release it to more 3G capable phones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rickyburke Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 looks pretty good, i didn't know it was going to be available to non-nokia models. i'll definately be subscribing to that, if its available and if Orange ever does release the M5000!!!

Guest Larnsky Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 My brother has it on his Nokia 6680, and its actually pretty good when you have enough 3G reception to stream it properly! I think its £10 a month for 1GB of usage..... if only 3G was that cost! i think it proves it could be that cheap though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rickyburke Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 yeah, it shows that the actual data traffic doesnt cost orange a lot if they can offer that much data per customer for £10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Larnsky Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 The Swiss Website is infinately better then the British one, it is laid out so much better, and as previoulsy mentioned it has links for downloads etc on it aswell! And they have the M5000! I just downloaded the Manual for it, as presumably its going to be identical! Just shows that Orange UK are just dragging their feet on the release of it for some annoying reason! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rickyburke Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 yeah, i had a read of the manual, but didnt mention the live tv, so maybe this will be a location specific service and not built in to the hardware of the phone. i love that the swiss site has a bout 50 bullet points for features, and the UK site has about 7, one of which (wifi) was only added recently due to growing concern at the lack of confirmation.
