Guest kingdom master Posted June 16, 2004 Report Posted June 16, 2004 spoke to my rep today, he says the mpx200 has had a platform update, to get rid of problems they have 40 odd thousand to clear b4 the mpx220 will come out its ear marked 4 august. meanwhile mxp200 is free on upgrade direct from orange!!!
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted June 16, 2004 Report Posted June 16, 2004 *Sigh*, if only Orange did mid-contract upgrades...
Guest kurtfhouse Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 Orange do do mid contract upgrades, it just costs a lot in upgrade fees until your almost at the end of your contract anyway :cry:
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 Which would kinda defeat the object of getting a free MPc200 on upgrade :D
Guest doyle_am Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 I spoke to someone at OCS last night and managed to get it out of them that the MPx220 is down for a July release alongside the C500. But the kind lady I spoke to said that neither have gone into review as of yet. So I'm not gonna hold my breath. :D
Guest Pagemakers Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 *Sigh*, if only Orange did mid-contract upgrades... They do at a price, I upgrade after a few months always. If I am charged £100 or so I can easily make that up when I sell the old phone.
Guest mcwarre Posted June 17, 2004 Report Posted June 17, 2004 MPx220 July release? What July 2005? :D
Guest drblow Posted June 18, 2004 Report Posted June 18, 2004 i have heard the same from O. i'm on a promise of a DMR to the next smartphone to be released, & was told last week that it would be a choice between C500 & mpx220, on 1st july! am not holding my breath either tho! Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest superglaze Posted July 2, 2004 Report Posted July 2, 2004 Hi everyone - first post from me. I've spoken to two seperate Orange Shop people who both told me that the mpx220 would be hitting the stores within the next fortnight, i.e. around mid-July. Seeing as they usually don't say much about release dates, this sounds promising. No? :D
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted July 2, 2004 Report Posted July 2, 2004 Yes, Orange stores are being told July, but if we see it July, i'll eat my hat :D P
Guest Gorskar Posted July 4, 2004 Report Posted July 4, 2004 Heh - want a bottle of Ketchup Paul? No you're probably right... :D
Guest siu99spj Posted July 5, 2004 Report Posted July 5, 2004 Still no sign, unsurprisingly. Well, here's hoping 'cos I really want this phone. Guess it also helps that I've had quite an appreciable cash injection from work for the week in California too. [i love that, they pay for me to go to California, and then give me a pay increase for having gone there! I love my job! :mrgreen:]
Guest Helix Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 I imagine it'll be a fight out between the MPx 220 and the C500. Having had a E200, i'm biased in an opinion, although the MPx 220 sounds tempting given its better camera quality (on paper anyways). But the C500's physical size will give it a big edge over others.
Guest blackhorse Posted July 10, 2004 Report Posted July 10, 2004 "]Yes, Orange stores are being told July, but if we see it July, i'll eat my hat :D P :D Thats what were been told! :lol: But checking with sources were at least 6 weeks away
Guest Pagemakers Posted July 10, 2004 Report Posted July 10, 2004 Asked in local Orange shop today about the C500 and I may as well have been talking jibberish. He'd never heard of it.

We in Orange retail as staff have had NO brief on this handset. I personally know about it with phones be a hobby. Think we will just get a delivery and they will be in it to be honest!
