    The Orange shops always seem to have them in stock. And for me they gave me
    a better deal as well.

    Originally an innovative UK GSM operator that started their services in
    1994, owned by Hutchison Telecom, a subsidiary of Hutchison Whampoa.
    They were floated on the stock market, were bought by Mannesmann of
    Germany, then in response Vodafone merged with Mannesmann and had to
    divest itself of Orange due to competition laws.

    France Telecom subsequently bought Orange and have now rebranded all their
    mobile offerings as Orange because of the strength of the brand.

    And sadly destroying near enough everything that was good or inovative about
    Orange in the process...:-(

    My local store said £99, which is what Orange said on the phone this week.
    Although they also said they "don't have any stock",
    they'll "text me when there's new stock"
    and their customer relations people might be able to offer me a better price
    !?!

    What depresses me is that the T630 is on the Sony Ericsson website already.
    :-(

    They can do me a better price if I upgrade my tariff.
    Problem is the next tariff is £10 more a month,
    and in that respect £120 for a year, I might as well pay the £99 for the
    phone !!

    But you only have to upgrade for 3 months. And they give you £30 airtime
    credit for your old phone.

    So you get a new phone for £29.99 + £30 - £30 = £29.99. That's not a bad
    deal!

    I can't downgrade to the tariff I'm on.
    There's nothing that compares to Everyday 50 on any network.
    50 minutes a DAY (most are only that a month)
    The fact they're off peak and landline and same network only isn't a
    problem.

    I'd like to have Line 2, but I'm not allowed that either on Everyday 50.

    They're clearly trying to get everyone off Everyday 50.
