EXCLUSIVE: MPx220 slated for July release on Orange UK

[Guest midnight]

yeh, it is big, probably similar size to the 8380? definitely quite a bit bigger than the mpx200. I presume is due to the quad band

[Guest kyrkesmith]

I've included it in a size comparison in the C500 topic, here.

[Guest refnulf]

Speculation!!! How long more are they going to keep it all under wraps? Surely they've got to announce it sometime or other.

[Guest Jay3gsm]

Of course , silly me. Whatever happened to the T-mobile rumor. Or is that exactly what it was...just a rumor?

T-Mobile? Release a smartphone? Ha, if they ever do they would never be able to support it properly, and as the majority of their base are prepay, or cost conscious low users it wouldn't be a smart move for them to stock it. Look at the time it took them to get the 6600 or the P900. They are not a serious network for data and smartphone users. Apart from Orange, the only network worth considering for such usage is Vodafone.

[Guest ozzturkgem]

In the previous spec. lists of MPX100 there was a spec. that there will be a Wi-Fi miniSD card for it. Will this be compatible for mpx220 also? If so I will buy mpx220 as soon as it released, If not choose a Wi-Fi capable phone.

without even going into the tmobile thing what about o2?

at the moment they practically dominate the pocket pc phone edition market with the xda/xda2.

[Guest DAN55]

mmm...not sure it can be july if moto themselves havent announced it?!

and, is it really the size of a E700? thought it was bigger -but v cool if it is :D

[Guest morpheus2702]

Carphone Warehouse have MPx200 listed as being available from Orange and O2...

[Guest DAN55]

where? didnt seem to be listed in latest phones?

[Guest mattscholey]

morpheus2702 was talking about the mpx200 not the mpx220. mpx200 has been out since November.

Matt

[Guest squall]

the mpx200 is listed on the carphone warehouse site under sim free.

needless to say they dont have the mpx220

[Guest DAN55]

yes, thats what i suspected! i reckon september is more likely than next month!?! especially if moto are going to wait to shift remaining 200s first :D

[Guest ozzturkgem]

While we comment on MPX220, someone in another forum sold an MPX(MPX300), some other one bought it look the links.

I want to buy one immediately.

[Guest kyrkesmith]

Why not just wait until it's out properly, without bugs etc.

Bit more on topic: interesting to note that 256 MB Mini SD cards are available and in stock (allegedly) here.

[Guest squall]

miniSD 256mb card £54

sd 256 mb card £24

:D

[Guest kyrkesmith]

Perhaps it's just that site's expensive though - they're flogging SanDisk 256 MB SD cards for £58.

[Guest mattscholey]

My 356MB Sandisk SD cost me £50 on ebay. Don't know where you get £24 from.

Matt

[Guest squall]

Ebuyer - see HERE

[Guest fozzie]

Ebuyer - see HERE

Cheapest 256Mb one on eBuyer is £30 incl. VAT. Where's the £24 one :?:

[Guest squall]

£25 Then - HERE

[Guest kyrkesmith]

Plus VAT :D

[Guest squall]

plus postage. not the point. did you include vat and postage on mini sd card?

:twisted:

[Guest fozzie]

£25 Then - HERE

Flippin' heck. So you're comparing the Mini SD at £54 incl. VAT to the eBuyer SD at £25 excl. VAT. That'll be a fair comparison then #-o

[Guest kyrkesmith]

VAT is included, but don't know about delivery.

I reckon, seeing as that supplier as actually chargin more for the normal SD than for the mini-SD, mini-SD might end up cheaper.

[Guest fozzie]

VAT is included, but don't know about delivery.

£3-50
