Thanks guys. I've just followed wonderfibre's link and got it setup!

Will the T-mobile settings work with Orange as I know they both share each others signals...?

Thanks again

wireless tether and hotspot capabilities are functional on all gingerbread roms, unless the network provider has locked down this function and charges extra for it. Its available for the blade and it's available for this phone.

What rom are you using? Most 2.3 roms have this feature and if they don't, then custom roms do.

2.1 wow, things are well different in 2.3. I have no idea how you have put up with all that orange bloatware for this long.

The Blade runs 2.3 very well with more features and settings and of course, security fixes.

If your interested in having a read, can I recommend OrangeSanFrancisco.co.UK

I used that as a complete noob to android

and it went without a hitch and my blade is on 2.3.

There is also a very active blade forum here at modaco with as much choice in roms as you will ever need.

An upgrade to 2.3 will be like getting a new phone and its good to learn so I would look to upgrade your blade to 2.3 before looking to buy a new phone.

Well, after having it for just over a week, my SF feels tiny, like I have giant hands!

is the G300 bigger length wise for the screen?

Sorry, are you asking whether the G300's screen is longer than the SF's screen, or are you asking whether the whole phone is longer to accommodate the 4" screen?

The G300 screen is 4" long compared to the SF's 3.5" (so, G300 is half an inch longer). Oddly, all reviews seem to refer to the length of the screens only and don't mention the width. The screen on my G300 is fractionally over 2" wide, but I don't know how that compares with the San Francisco.

Screen size is measured from corner to corner (diagonally), not length, just so you know.

I am very tempted by this phone, I just hope there will be a black version soon :)

I was just going to say that Chris.

I'm back on the blade and its slow and small in comparison and battery life on blade isn't great in comparison.

be interesting if all the other phone networks stick to the same price point or try under cutting each other when it comes available to other networks in 3 months time :)

I expect different version by then too :)

Aha! Suddenly it makes more sense! I knew that is how TV screen sizes are presented and never made the association with portable devices. What a dunce!
