Andrew, no such prob’s with mine… I bought mine outright and am on LiveConnected though, so don’t know if that makes any difference.
FWIW, I LOVE this phone! Even my iWank mates are secretly jealous 😉
I have got this phone, but i find it to be a pain in the A.. when ever i answer it they cannot hear me then i have to redial, is this a fault i am with telstra it is a major problem specially when i use it for work………………
Not as bad as i thought. Though it is not clear what is included with these plans.
Outright cost isn’t as much as I expected, but the plans sound a little pricey. Any word on if it’s locked?
Outright is network unlocked, being on a plan may be a different story.
