I'm eligible for an upgrade from the 9th Dec. My current contract is about £16 a month with 200 mins off peak and 250 texts with Vodafone.

I quite fancy the Sony Ericcson C902 but see it's a fairly new phone with a high premium. I've had 4 1/2 years of 18 month contracts with Vodafone. Reckons it's worth trying for the C902??

How do you know, if it's not here until the Spring?

Nokia have a history of promising much but delivering bug-ridden handsets.

You might be able to. However, being on an off-peak tariff I'm sure you should only be commiting to a 12month contract, as its probably an older tariff. You wouldnt be able to get a N85 free of charge when it comes out to be honest you'll be pushing it for the c902... You can't tell I do Vodafone upgrades wink.

I hate the people who ask for a N96 Free on a 12month tariff paying £10 p/m.. Quite clearly it doesnt even cover the cost of the phone let alone profits. lol.

Anyway, if you fancy dropping me an email, I'm sure I can find out if we can get it onto a 12month commitment peroid.

People conforming to stereotypes in this manner always amuse me.

WOW!!!
I'm impressed!
How come though you're still in business?
Trawling the net provides huge numbers of positive reviews so the public (or in your case customers) seem to love it.
It appears to be what people want in a phone at a very reasonable price - in my book that's good value and a desirable item.
I thought the customer was always right but obviously you've managed to rewrite that maxim.

You would prefer someone plug a sh!t phone to you?

If you want a phone that is full of useless features that you will never use (unless for bragging rights in th pub), then go for the Nokia.

No thanks. I'll stick with my Blackberry - I'm just talking about what the kids want.
