Yes, I got one Matt

Dave, when they come they have the network software on them - this is always behind the nokia generic firmware update that is released as they (the networks) fanny around with each update before they release it.

You just use a program called NSS to change the product code on the phone (thats that code I used). You then use the normal nokia software updater, which recognises it as a now generic nokia software version, and updates it accordingly.

Always back up the phone using the nokia software first, as you lose stuff like contacts etc (I always save contacts to simcard anyway!!)

I've got mine on T-Mobile... Flext 50 web 'n' walk plan.

Online discount etc brings it to Ł45 a month, phone is free. That's quoted as "Ł350 worth of calls and texts. 1750 mins, 3500 texts or any mix you use".

Along with 'unlimited' internet usage, can't remember but think they define 1GB as unlimited, although IIRC if you go over the 1GB they charge you Ł1 a day maximum, up to a point of Ł10 maximum a month for extra access.

Sorry, i meant what are they selling them at.

I am on Orange Dolphin which suits me fine. Unlimited texts, 900 free Min's and 3 magic numbers. (Free anytime anywhere) Ł35.

But i fancy upgrading the phone from the N95 to the N96 and cant get through to orange as they are busy and Ive no time to wait.

She got it with her contract Took it out the box when she got home, looked through the menu and decided it was too 'complicated' for her. She is a 1st class technophobe.

Its only been out of the box, turned on, turned off and back in the box
