Guest Tech Posted November 25, 2005 Report Posted November 25, 2005 well orange said ALL THIS MONTH - NOVEMBER - that the c600 would be launched. its almost december and no sign. ive phoned and been to the retail shop and nothing. my 1st contract outta 2 is finishing in 3 days time. im not happy with orange and i think about 75% of modaco users feel this way about orange. im not happy!
Guest tindo196 Posted November 25, 2005 Report Posted November 25, 2005 maybe just maybe htc needs a bit of competition with delivering its products ,well if its not htc then maybe i repeat maybe orange might just be following the path being curved by the link-going downhill ,well they might like to sort out their problems whilst they still have customers after all its a cutthroat world -live fast die young as they say
Guest Tech Posted November 25, 2005 Report Posted November 25, 2005 its not htc the C600 is actually out - france have it apperently and there are tons of "early" revision devices out there. orange keep saying "under review" but how long does it take for it to be in review? its been 3 months! C500 took 3 weeks for it to be under review....
Guest m9000 Posted November 26, 2005 Report Posted November 26, 2005 I think it's pretty obvious that Orange are waiting as they want to shift alot more C550's before they release the C600. I expect it'll be out next month - sure, it's frustrating, but it makes sense.
Guest Tech Posted November 26, 2005 Report Posted November 26, 2005 well apperently, and as expected, the C550's aint doing soo well. Im considering getting the Samsung SGH-i300 on O2 or maybe an imate SP5
Guest incey2005 Posted November 26, 2005 Report Posted November 26, 2005 I got sick of waiting so i got the C550 and am very happy with it so now i will wait a few months then look at the C600.
Guest iflya Posted November 26, 2005 Report Posted November 26, 2005 Its currently featured in the new Orange Magazine, Shops have info on early december delivery, but no pricing yet ... got to know how to talk to them phone trainers! E : )
Guest Tech Posted November 26, 2005 Report Posted November 26, 2005 i did phone them AGAIN today and they said no idea apart from november. to be honest ... im sick and tired of this playing around from orange.
Guest Tech Posted November 27, 2005 Report Posted November 27, 2005 well just asked for a pac code. they gave it to me with no questions asked. didnt even try to give me any details!! that easy?
Guest GrahamMW Posted November 27, 2005 Report Posted November 27, 2005 I went into an Orange Shop in London on Friday and they told me they should have them next week and that they would be available for new customers and upgrades - so going back next Friday to see if they have them in.
Guest Tech Posted November 27, 2005 Report Posted November 27, 2005 dont count on it buddy... they say that stuff all the time
Guest Tech Posted November 27, 2005 Report Posted November 27, 2005 Well, I guess I have an advantage of having 2 contracts on the go - whenever my 2nd contract expires next year hopefully by then the C600 would have been launched... then i can get that! :) however currently, placing an order for Imate SP5
Guest DaveTheRave Posted November 28, 2005 Report Posted November 28, 2005 Having just picked up one of these new beauty's (via a business account) I think they are supplying business first as it is aimed at that market... Great phone but shame is only comes with a 32Mb SD card where as the c550 has 128Mb... Can anyone recommend a decent doc viewer other than clearvue?
Guest LSmith4285 Posted November 28, 2005 Report Posted November 28, 2005 Having just picked up one of these new beauty's (via a business account) I think they are supplying business first as it is aimed at that market... Great phone but shame is only comes with a 32Mb SD card where as the c550 has 128Mb... Can anyone recommend a decent doc viewer other than clearvue? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They always supply to business first, makes sence as they spend much more money than the rest of us. The C550 music came with a 512MB Mini SD card as well. Usually Orange tend to put a phone in the magazine the month before the launch of the handset to generate some interest. I would hope most MoDaCo users would have more important things to worry about than getting upset just because a phone hasn't been released yet.
Guest Griff_FFOC Posted November 29, 2005 Report Posted November 29, 2005 Don't know if it's related, but the C500 on orange's website no now longer says "Out of Stock", instead it says "Free" with £50 airtime free. I wonder if they are wanting to shift stocks of other models first before introducing new models.
Guest Tech Posted November 29, 2005 Report Posted November 29, 2005 i noticed this too. Apperently the C500 has been discontinued when I spoke to the sales rep on the phone about 4 weeks ago :-/ wtf?
