I need someone on the inside who has some idea when the Nokia N95 8GB is coming back in stock. Its doing my flipping head in calling all the time to find out.

I phoned this morning and was told there was 10,000. Then the guy who I was speaking to cut me off. I phoned back and was told they were still out of stock!

Crazy.

When you are next on the phone just say you will switch to Orange as they said they can put the phone on order for you and you wont have to keep calling back. O2 will then do the same for you!

You want to try getting a i-phone mate.

Unless you can take a week off work and camp outside an O2 store like some sort of techno-geek you've got 2 hopes.

I reckon it'll be October before I can just wander into a shop on a weekend and pick one up.

Cheers for that info. Just spoken to them again and they said they will know by Friday about stock levels so I'll phone then and if they don't have any in stock I'll tell them that.

I've thought about an iPhone but its really not for me. The N95 8GB is the puppy for me. smile

Glad I ordered my N95 8Gb from O2 last month instead of this month then! biggrin

If you order online don't you get one sent out as soon as they get them in stock? Or are you getting an upgrade?

useless morons. I'm a Select customer, but there is no preferential allocation. When I complained about this, they said "we can't be seen to be giving preferential treatment to our best customers".Really? I thought that was the point of Select!

Mannginger, if your message was about iphone availability, could I be let in on the secret, please?

Upgrade mate. I was almost tempted of switching to Vodafone.

Basically the same model. N96 has the inferior battery length. Going to cost a lot more for the first few months.

But its soo much better looking ... and will be a free upgrade for me.

Saying that, My original N95 has been spot on since June 07!

I spoke to the carphone warehouse on friday afternoon and my iphone was delivered to my door at 9am sat morning.

Seems they have plenty of stock I even got a £20 credit on my first months bill, just to keep me as a customer.
