Guest Dade Posted November 8, 2004 Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 I dont think anyone know the true release date yet. Most of the information available tends to suggest a late November/Early December release date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest theanarch1st Posted November 8, 2004 Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 so what would happen if i did order it now tho? would i start paying line rental or would it just be sent to me as soon as they go on sale and the contract start then? really tempted to put me order in as me contracts up on december 16th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johnbanks Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 I phoned onestopphoneshop on Saturday, as they cancelled my order for one. Said my debit card wasn't registered to my home addesss ??? Anyway, I put the question about stock levels. A not very helpful bloke in CS, who was neither polite or customer service savvy, said Monday they would have stock. When I asked "Which Monday", he just said monday.

Guest pierre Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 if you happen to be in Zurich, Orange center in airport has it on stock since last week. Had it in my hands, looking great! Posted from my SmartPhone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest c2fow Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 Just spoke to Orange & they confirmed that it had been tested by a number of corporate clients & the feedback was such that they have a large order for delivery 'within two weeks'. Unfortunately my Contract is not up until 5th December & will not bend the rules for the two weeks remaining - in spite of the fact that I would be adding two additional C500's to my account! Looks like I shall just have to wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beat that, only question is when they will have stock of them!!!!! Can anyone shed any more light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The deal aint arf bad, but then again onestop are notorious for bad customer service/messing people about. Promising phones that arnt available and generally just getting the order completly wrong! I dont expect my internal M2000 to be delivered before december. Id expect the same if not longer wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest matblack Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 Does anyone know when these will be available for upgrade on Orange and roughly how much they will cost? I am tossing up between the M1000 and M2000 at the moment, will the M2000 be available for upgrading customers before the new year and do we think it will replace the M1000 and cost the same, or will we pay a premium for the new product whilst M1000 sticks around for a while? Cheers MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest philgriffiths Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 There is still no definate release date for the M2000 all they are saying is soon. As for which to go for, i would wait for the M2000. If you get the M1000 now on an upgrade you will have a unit that is about to be superseded by the newer model (M2000) and be stuck with it for at least 12 months. I would imagine the M1000 will stick around for a while. Either they will drop the price of the M1000 a little once the M2000 comes out, or the M2000 will be priced much higher than it's predecessor or both. Can't see why Orange would need to take it off the market.. especially if they still have a load of stock to get rid of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was for example £200 on a high tariff to upgrade a couple of weeks back, its now £99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest theanarch1st Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 blackhorse to whom's warehouse are you referring to??? One Stop Phone Shop is still sayin awaiting delivery to warehouse :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johnbanks Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 I think, phones are sent to Orange resellers/dealers and Retail outlets from their distrubution warehouses. 1stop will still say awaiting delivery, as they have not yet hit their warehouse yet. Hopefully this will happen sometime this week/early part next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RussellH Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Just noticed that the price of the M1000 on the Orange website has dropped to £99. M2000 still says "Coming Soon". Can't be too long now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dbarfoot Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 I've had a call from Mobiles 2 Your Door to say they now have the M2000 in stock and that they will be processing my order today. Fingers Crossed! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
