While some see them as the crazy ones,we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

You didn’t come here to make the choice. You’ve already made it. You’re here to try to understand why you made it.

Why you concerned Sam you got a C600 aint yah?

Any ideas of a release date for the F600? (I'm assuming Orange chose F for 'flip' and C for 'candy bar'? Just a hinch  )

I sure as hell do :D but not a cool modaco one!  :)

I was just wondering weather orange were actually gonna go through with the WM5 thing (ever).

So im assuming no A2DP mentioned all then  ;)

Shame they didn't. Never mind eh! I'm just glad they're releasing the STrK because I didn't really want to upgrade to the C600 (not much of an upgrade in my eyes) and I don't really like the look of the breeze (in pics anyway) and I do fancy a snazzy flip phone  :( Any ideas on a release date?

Every year I PROMISE to attend (I have been to one before) and EVERY year something football related comes up!

This year I was SURE I would make it, with it being so early in the year compared to previous ones when the football season starts in August.  So i was dead excited.

Then Newcastle United only went and bloody entered the Intertoto Cup, which meant they are the first Premiership side to be involved in competetive action this season...  TODAY!

And just to clarify, it's not that I am a Football FAN per se... it's because I am Senior Corporate Security Supervisor for NUFC, so it means I was forced to WORK today.

Ah BLOODY HELL MAN!  You nice guys make life easy for me, by moving it forward to July instead of August, and then we only go and have a match THAT EARLY anyway!

GROAN And GROAN - this is now the THIRD year I have been forced to work a match on the same day as the meet.  Is there no hope for me!

To make matters worse, we could only manage a crappy draw with Lillestrom of Norway, so that means they also carry an away goal so far!

What a downer of a day therefore!

Sounds like a fun time...and the white modaco phone is a very cool surprise. Guess that will keep the bitching down for those who didnt win something. :)

Hope you all got home safely.

Post more news and stories when you get a chance.

Morning all, glad you all had fun.  You cant even begin to imagine how much hassle it was sorting those c600's for you all, managing the numbers, and keeping it all under wraps!

It was a great day! Thanks to all those who organised. The effort showed very much.

Thanks for the superb Xbox360, games and broadband access too. Its now all setup and running like a dream!

I just hope my buddy Scot is now over the agony of having the other strip of 39* tickets and we can be friends. Hey Scot, you really should get a 360...they are sweet!

Oh and the phone is very nice too!  ;)  :)
