I wish I did know for sure... then I might actually be able to get something else done today... ;) I thought I'd seen mention of the 9th somewhere earlier in this thread... may have been mistaken.

[Guest sSword]

9th of may..............yay!! ;)

[Guest MONKEY MAN]

they had a different answer for me........

Maybe someone should direct Orange to a dictionary for a definition of imminent

Here's one defintion from:

www.dictionary.com

"im·mi·nent adj. About to occur; impending"

;)

come on...someone put us out of our misery....please

[Guest lardy]

ahh that would be it - i remember i used to have the same problem on my dial up connection.

though not sure why your connection cuts out after 2 hours - normally providers do that if you're appearing idle . . . . try finding a download manager that allows you to properly resume downloads etc . . . or find a friend with broadband . . .  lol i've never had an illigal operation in XP i assumed they go rid of that warning becuase it made no sense!

My dial up is with NTL... the deal is 15 of your english pounds for 15 quids worth of landline calls a month and on top of that you can use your dial up internet for as long as you like, but get booted every 2 hours. Not bad if you can resume easily like with armadillo or armadillo, but Download accelerator PLUS is kinda strange sometimes.

Oh it's not actually an "illegal operation" i was used to what '98 always said. It actually says:

"RUU_v0.995_OrangeUK_v4.1.1.4 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

Hmmm, nice of windows to apologise i suppose?!?

I think it's now starting to become clear, there will be no update for the C500.

Cheers Orange.

what the ****!!!

i want to know the truth!!!

[Guest drblow]

What makes you people think that Orange would go to the trouble of informing paul of an imminent update, and then not deliver one? Does nobody think that email is just a standard reply, probably automatic?

[Guest hunyango_uk]

I'm really confused about all this post, all these email replies.

Which one is the true one, i don't know who to beleive now. but one thing for sure, if Paul post a thread i always can rely.

but what about these orange personnels/coustomers service/employees who replied the emails. do they know something?

[Guest tsutton]

Would be good if Paul find out what's going on... after all he has a very good contacts with Orange.

[Guest James]

This is getting funny

[Guest PayableOnDeath]

I think we should email Orange France, they might give us a better answer on the UK update lol ;)

[Guest Disco Stu]

It was only a matter of time before that was posted. :P

;) :P ;)

the truth is, i'm really beggining to be confuse. :D

i think it's better to "know the truth" than "you had me at hello"(cheesy - eeeeeeew). :D

i cant' wait, i think i'm going to do that french rom. ;)

[Guest hunyango_uk]

wish me luck!!! hope i'm not going to screw my c500. ;) ;) :P

[Guest tmaniac]

any idea when the dutch update will arrive? ;)...and will that be in the news @ modaco to? :P ;)

[Guest drblow]

You're all mad! ;) Everybody just take a big old chill pill. There was no release date specified by Paul in the original announcement. OK - maybe if it gets too far beyond the rumoured 9th may, then there may be cause for concern, but let's just see if we could excercise a little patience, eh!?

[Guest Pondrew]

Doesn't this take you back tho Drblow?

The days of waiting for the original SPV update and then the E200 update...

It's such fun :twisted:

[Guest James]

maybe we are just too used to it ;)

[Guest drblow]

Actually, thats probably the real truth there. We're just jaded by previous experience, and know not to get too excited at the mention of an 'imminent' update. It is an all too familiar pattern with Orange, but realistically these emails stating that there is no update have to be just some kind of automated reply system. An update clearly exists in other languages, so we know we will get it in the UK ... sometime! :twisted:
