thats cheaper than a blade....to think I paid £159 for mine 4 months ago....at this price things might get busy here in the skate modaco forum like it did in the blade forum...

Be sure to get a screen protector + case package from casesss.com while it's 50% off

This is good, more Skate owners can only be a good thing ;)

[Guest ronc2000]

It seems there are plenty.

If it is out of stock in your local store, you can still order it and to pick up after new year.

[Guest davnig]

Bargain! Just reserved, pic up later, then it's time to get that new rom on there!!

[Guest scotchmizzed]

Just reserved, bought , unlocked and installing new rom... magic £89+10 top up can't beat it..

[Guest TouchyAndalou]

Just picked one up today. The girlfriend can have mine as a present and I'll keep the shiny new one for myself. One left in stock at Chesterfield Argos.

[Guest Skate Away]

Bloody good deal.

Much better than a free set of (allegedly) high quality headphones.....

if only the blade devs had stayed on budget phones and hadn't gone on to high end phones...

While this may be true, a community exists of more than only developers & cooks: without a (friendly & patient) userbase, devs & cooks will give up more easily and move on to other devices. The bigger the userbase the more appreciation they will get for their work and also a few donations. You can say what you want but money is an important motivator for most of us.

Also, just because you're not a cook or developer doesn't mean you can do something for the community. Take a look at this topic if you want to know what I mean...

So to conclude my speech: more users is always a plus! ;)

Thanks NJPW, just reserved one for the missus. Had mine for over a week but she's been "admiring" it. Normally hold fire & buy her presents in the sale so this is ideal.

Confirmed. I just bought one from Argos Long Eaton today (27th December 2011) for just £89.99 + £10.00 obligatory Orange top up.

Gutted! I paid £129 for mine, but I have had it since August. I had intended to sell it before Christmas, but missed the opportunity.

Was tempted before by the big screen, but the new price and Xmas made me buy it. Just need to put my OLED OSF on Ebay now once the OMC is bedded in

I was looking at this a few days ago and decided I was going to get it once I got my first pay-packet through (I work for Argos ;)) thinking it was a great deal for £129 (£116 after staff discount :D) and then they dropped the price down to £89 as part of there January clearance sale and I snapped it up B)

got rid of the Orange drivel and I'm quite happy with CM7 and Go Launcher :)

Also just to mention that these probably won't be in the new Argos catalogue so get while you can!

[Guest asifmatey]

Just bought one 89.99 from Argos. 89.99 amazing wished i had bought 2 one as a spare!!!. nothing to touch it for the price good bye to my iphone 3gs 16gb had a San Francisco before, If ZTE comtinue to make phone like this for this kinda price I`ll be a continuing customer Highly Recommended

[Guest Yugesh]

[Guest dadashi]

If I had to buy another smartphone or my skate broke I wouldn't hesitate snapping up another at these prices....

The OMC is great as a low budget Android, but don't ditch your iPhone 3GS just yet as this is a miles better phone than the OMC. You will find that the OMC won't have the same functionality or speed. I use my OMC as a weekend alternative to carting about my expensive pay and go iPhone 4, but I don't think it would stand up to the rigours of my work email account, my personal email account, web surfacing and all the other things that iPhone does so well.

Care to expand on your comment.:huh:

[Guest romtastic]

Yup got mine, BARGAIN, CM7'd up, awesome!

Its gonna take a lot of Tarmac to surface the whole internet, ;D!!

Just kiddin witcha, seriously though, mine stands up quite happily to everything I throw at it, at one point I had every account I'd got on it - Gmail (x2), Hotmail (x2), work email, Facebook, twitter, linkedin, 4square, Tapatalk, Google+, Google Music and a random yahoo account I used to use, plus loads of surfing. ( I've trimmed the accounts down for the new year though, just too much old mail)

Its all about personal preference in the end, I'm no fanboy, but would it kill Apple to stick a back button into the case or software somewhere?
