Lets just say my company I work for have a lot of dealings with Orange. We were told the 9th of May a couple of weeks ago. I hope what we were told was accurate ;)

Just recieved my C500 today and it has WMP9 - obviously old stock

Is it better to unlock it now - before the update or wait until the rom is released - update and then unlock ?

Sorry.  I rushed this post.  Hence the terrible spelling and grammar, etc.

Thanks for ammending Paul.

If I were Paul I'd have written "3/10 - Spelling. See me" at the bottom...

My spelling is perfect. It's my typing that sucks! :roll:

Honest. ;)

More interesting is, if they all sport the new ROM, then the supply chain should have been flooded with third gen phones, right? I mean, if they took the trouble of flashing them, why not fix them at the same time?

Well, it's now tomorrow (or, for readers reading later on today, early this morning...go figure :| ) and there has been no update. dpeilow, you were WRONG! WRONG, WRONG WRONG WRONG but everybody makes mistakes, and, as you so eloquently put it, it was your "informers" that were at fault anyway, so no hard feelings. Never mind, eh...? Maybe they meant 9th May 2006?

This is the problem, I'm sure his informers are usually right but there are no guarantees - has anyone else heard a reliable date?

FYI

I got a brand new C500 Yesterday and it op version 4.1.1.4

IE not a new version and hence no WMP 10

Still no WMP10 eh? Now I still don't know why I need it, but just because it's out there I want it. Come on Orange I wanna play... ;)

Orange are now shipping new C500s with Windows Media Player 10 installed, and hence the new update!

I didn't believe Orange when they told me so I went to the Orange shop in Bolton to "try out" a C500. I didn't get a chance to check out the Operator Version but it definitely had WMP10 on it. ;)

So... we should expect the UK update any time now!

[Edit by Paul [MVP] - spelling, wording]

are you sure it was a brand new one ?

cos maybe the guy in shop had one that flashed with the french rom :twisted:

I haven't got a bl**dy clue whats going on. ;)

I may go back to the shop (or another one) and ask to try an "out of the box" C500.

Any news when the Orange UK ROM update is going to be published?

(any news regarding the update policy regarding Windows Mobile 2005?

i.e. Are the WM 2005 be available (with a cost) like what HP did with pdas and WM 2003?)

There's still nothing on the Orange UK website, other than the 4.1.1.4 update.

I have e-mailed Orange a couple of times, but as yet they haven't bothered to reply. :x

Next stop for me is imei-check to unlock my handset, then I'm off to orange.fr for ROM update 4.2.2.1
