i've no idea how, but somehow i managed to convince myself i don't need one and can wait for the raphael - an actual upgrade to my kaiser..

..mostly because it would cost me £330 to get out of my 18 month contract 12 months early

Aston University 2008/9 - Marketing - WOO :D

HTC Kaiser (T-Mo MDA V3 branded) - TLR 6.1 ROM, 2GB MicroSD, iGo 8 on a 515MB MicroSD, T-Mobile FlexT 25 + Web 'n' Walk Standard
Acer Aspire Gemstone Blue 6920G - Intel Core 2 Duo T5750 2GHz, 3GB PC2-6400, 200GB HDD, ATi Radeon HD3650 512MB, Dolby Virtual Surround + True5.1 Output, Blu-Ray, HDMI, Fingerprint Recognition, Windows Vista Ultimate SP1, Office 2007 Pro Plus with Onenote 2007

I know what I'm doing, I'm just not doing it :)

Just called up, got a free upgrade on a lower price plan; flext 35 so will be paying half my current fees for a similar amount of free minutes...phone arrives tomorrow.

Anyone know if my co-pilot 6 that came free with my mda compact 3 will work ok on this phone ?

order the orange version yesterday as t-mob said it was coming till sept.
today ordered the t-mob version as web'n'walk rules. downgraded from flex 35 to flex 30. hopefully i wont lose my web'n'walk pro.

same thing happen when the vario III and the m3100 where released, i grabbed the orange version as it was realsed first then the t-mob version.

Thanks for the heads up Paul!

Ordered mine just now for delivery tomorrow (my day off too so plenty of playing time!). Managed to get the phone for free and retain my flex 35 12month contract. They even let me keep the 'free' evening and weekend calls that I was given last year for a one-off payment of £40. Happy days!

I know, i've just ordered one on an upgrade... FREE!

Free = GOOD

Janky T-Mobile customised ROM = BAD - But I have a feeling it won't be on there too long!!

HardSPL if our friend!

the only thing that might be a issue is that the diamond/compact 4 is a full vga screen.

Just ordered one. Didn't realise if I know the password, I can order phones too

On a web'n'walk 20 for 12 months it was free, though postage has to be paid. Rather good I thought!

Only problem is that this is now the missus phone :angry:

. Good news is that my phone is due for renewal in 3 DAYS!!!

I might wait for the Vario 4 though, its scheduled for release in a month and the rather nice chappie I spoke to said that it wouldn't be extortionate like the other Varios have been at launch, and that their prices will be the same as what the Vario 3 is right now.

So the good news I guess is that I get to have a play with the Diamond, but not get the hump when the Raphael comes out.

Wicked!!

Cheers

August? Vario 4? HTC Touch Pro before that then?

Oh and btw hurry up and get one if you have not already.

The person I spoke to said that they had 300 ready for release a few hours ago (not long after this thread was started) and now they only have 80 left.

Hope this helps!

You can chuck another ROM on it to ditch the pink you know.

It is, but the back casing would be different, so i'd need a larger mda casing as opposed to the the diamond one. i wasn't toldabout the £40 one off payment to keep free evening and weekends. Might give T a call again. Also, could someone give a definitive answer on the RAM, I'm now in two minds over the device. I suppose i'll make good use of the 7 day cooling off period.
