what's so amazing about T-mobile anyway? Everyone seems obsessed

U can get it on Voda �27-28 month for Free at www.mobileshop.co.uk I think!

it'll probably drop soon.. not enough people buying it here in auz for $999.. thats double the price of 8310.

o ok i might actauly get it this week cant be bothered to wait im jus wondering wot firmware t mobile uk are using or are on.....

there was some debate here in the UK with relation of mobile prices.
the government ordered phone companies to do something or other which would cost them more, so instead of taking it out of current customers, it upped the initial charges for handsets. sometimes by double the original amount.
