msm7227a has a normal clock range of 800mhz-1000mhz, does that mean that the 1000mhz versions are o'ced I don't get it...?  :s

It's like the blade/skate. The skate has a turbo version of msm7227 with 800MHz. It's not overclocked but has a higher clok speed by stock.

So this is a version 7 processor and not version 6?

Tried looking it up on the Huawei site but nothing lists.

From a business point of view you would hope theyball saw what happened with the osf and try and stop the unlocking. However from my point of view I hope they've naively chucked this out with an easy unlock

What do you think, will unlock be so complicated as on OMC, If I remember correctly it was not unlocked for half year or more?

Will they be any ristrictions on how many pieces can each customer buy? Will this only be online shopping or also can be bought in vodafone shops.

Thank you.

Not available on line yet, rumours are the first batch may be contract stock sold as pay as you go, so will be unlocked.

if the first phones will be unlocked, will this help to find a proper unlock more quickly?
