Will there be one and when? 2) C500 cradle, where's the cradle that was talked about? CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shaund316 Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 orange r working on the update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kurtfhouse Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Hope they hurry up, I, and indeed many others have had the phone for a month and a half and I rarely keep a phone more than 9 months (always something new I want to upgrade to! :) ). If its not out soon will hardly be worth it for me, well maybe I'm exagerating :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Exploited Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 Yeah...the bugs on the C500 are on a level that quick updates are really neccessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest furby Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 2) C500 cradle, where's the cradle that was talked about? This? (excuse the not so great scan)dock.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pisquee Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 It was supposed to come with one? Where is that scan from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zeta101 Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 that cradle doesnt look compatible, it looks like it has the serial connector thats used on the spv/e100/e200, the c500 uses miniUSB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vector Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 Think Paul confirmed that the cradle pictured there is only for M1000 and NOT compatible with C500 in another thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 Yep that's the M1000 cradle not the C500 it's got the wrong connection let alone the shape of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest furby Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 It's a scan straight from the Orange catalouge/magazine I picked up in an Orange Shop today (september edition) I didn't ask if it was the C500 one though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest drblow Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 All that is ture, but it does clearly state in the scanned pic that this cradle "comes with the c500"! :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pisquee Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 So, whether it is compatible or not, everyone who has bought a c500 direct from Orange retail should have a M1000 cradle, which they can then flog for a few quid on ebay! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Deanus2004 Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 it also says you get the cradle and case above the pic of the phone in the other section of the mag. which you dont get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MaximilianWeisheit Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 another post says that this is a misprint. anyway I sure would like to see a c500 and/or SDA cradle in the MoDaCo shop soon ,-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ddmf Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 i queried a woman in the grimsby orange shop last monday and got a shrug as a reply. it's pretty crappy that in the ORANGE SHOP BROCHURE it states you get a cradle with the C500... i wonder if they'll give them away to disgruntled customers who expected a cradle due to the photo!? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest drblow Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 I dunno what all the fuss is about cradles! :shock: I have an in-car holder stuck to the side of my PC desk, works a treat! Now, I can even decide whether or not to have the phone synced & charging or not, but still have it sitting safe & on view! It's the software update I'm worried about. There has been absolutely no communication from O publicly about the serious issue with gapidraw games (what a huge suprise that is!! :x ). There has been the odd mention of "Orange are working on a fix ..." which does nothing whatsoever to fill me with confidence. We'll be lucky if it's this side of xmas, and we'll be lucky if it works/doesn't break something else in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pisquee Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Orange always seem to be working on an update for the SPV software, and say it will be out soon to fix a serious bug, but it still takes them 6 months each time.
