C600 button layout coming to other networks?

[Guest jimmod]

I've got a c600 on trial from Orange through my company; unfortunately my company contract is heavily locked into O2, so no matter how much I like the c600 I can't have one.

So having recently discovered modaco and looked into the similar phone variants which are available, it seems that all the equivalents have that line of 4 keys below the display. I bought a cheap c550 off Ebay, but those 4 buttons are just too small for my sausage fingers... I think I'd have the same problem with the Imate, Qtek or similar.

My question is: will a device which looks exactly like the c600 become available for use with O2? If anyone knows for sure, it'd really help my plans.

Thanks, Jim
