Guest Mewcenary Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 (edited) Yep, after around 10 years with Orange I got my PAC code today. They didn't sound particularly bothered. Basically, I want an M5000 or equivalent. Orange now only offer these on Business contracts, and steadfastly refused to give me one on my Personal contract. This is despite pretty much all of their competition offering the same device. I know the M3100 is coming out, but I want the generally higher spec of the M5000. Are there any other decent smartphones I should be considering, and who are the best providers? (Orange aren't generally in my good books anyway - especially notably was when it took over a week to activate a previous upgrade, during which time my old phone didn't work either).

Guest Pondrew Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 BTW the M5000 (Universal) and M3100 (Hermes) are both PPCs not SmartPhoones. Good point! Moved to Pocket PC Main... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mewcenary Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Good point! Moved to Pocket PC Main... Thanks :) So, any other devices comparable to the M5000? It's a shame that I will most likely have to shell out 100 quid plus for the device now that I'll be starting afresh. But if anybody knows of any good deals...

Guest Mewcenary Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Especially since T Mobile are only quoting for the one which comes with the GPS unit, which I don't want or need... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
