who's giving a free xbox for a wp7 ? - Windows Phone 7 General

I read three sweden and orange uk are giving you a free xbox if you buy a wp7 phone.
Did you hear about other carriers with the same offer ?

at the mo that offer is also only for upgrades not new contracts as i was down for a new xbox but alas im with tmobile and O2

Tis a great deal....
I'm with Orange UK and am going to upgrade to a Nokia WP7. Unfortunantly this offer only runs to the end of November and i'm not due an upgrade till March :/

ouch thats a kick in the teeth probably cos they know that old wp7 users are still in an 18 month contract just useing this to bag newbies.

XDA IIs - availability

I called O2 and was told the release date had been put back to the 4th November and more suprisingly they have not got a price yet.
There will be no trade in or upgrade promo from teh XDA2

Allegedly, I was successful in ordering one yesterday (3rd) - I was charged £279 (based on my tariff/upgrade - it does vary depending on your tariff).
However, as they had 'problems with the computers' my GM order number has not yet arrived.....
I was also told he 4th, And i rang a few times, but no stock (of corse) my last call was at 4pm and i was then told its been put back until the 9th

Well - it is on the O2 online shop now for £249 +min £20 a month line rental. I have a friend in O2 so I am gonna see if there is a staff deal.
R
I called the local O2 shops - they are so crap!
The one that 2 days ago said it would be in on Friday now says they are not sue in until December. Another simply said they had heard nothing about it.....jesh!!! Neither of them could give me any idea of price...

O2 XDA IIs is available in Hong Kong now
ROADTRIIIIIP!!!
its also available in the philippines now. Im thinking of getting it, but im already using xda2. the landscape orientation for spreadsheets and other softwares may prove to be very useful, other than that, id say the built in wifi is a welcome edition, im not a fan of the qwerty keypad though.
i was wondering also ifthis unit can support blackberry as well
i3oyi3astos,
If you could, please run to the store to play with one and in the bluetooth settings please see if they are still using the 1.0000000000000 version or if they upgraded it.
Second could you see if they have the BlackBerry client on it???
Third, take your credit card and consider it a early birthday gift
Thank you VERY much as I'm hoping they updated these two in the XDAIIs.
its on the o2 uk site.........

I have bought one sim free from Here they have been assured by O2 today that they will be the first in the UK to stock them and that delivery will be shipped next monday.
I personally can't wait until Tuesday, this is the first phone with everything i ever wanted in one device, i am ditching my Treo 600 and palm for this little baby.

Hi Richard,
I got my XDA II from Uplands last year and I can't fault them, so I'd be happy to get an XDA IIs from them as well, and their prices are certainly good!
Could you let us know when you get yours? I'll be interested to see when their stock starts to come through. Gonna call them now and ask about upgrades....
Edit: update on upgrades - I could have one, but it would cost me £285 cos I'm not a particularly heavy user.
Yeah uplands are good cant go wrong with them + they are very competitive in price. Stock will be due in on monday 15th nov.. cant wait!
12th Nov
I've just spoken to a few O2 shops in London area, they either tell me they have no idea when they're due or that 12th of November is release date and not to expect anything for at least 2 weeks after then :\
I've got 4 phones due an upgrade with an O2 reseller (unfortunately not direct with O2, corporate account with CarphoneWarehouse so will probably delay things further) - itching to get my hands on one!
Does anyone have any idea when this device will be available in the Netherlands? Through one of those mobile provider? (T-Mob, Orange, Telfort?) It seems that its out in UK and Germany and some places in US and other countries, but not yet here in NL, I've checked several stores and can't find convincing replies. I am keen to check this one out.
More delays
Just spoke to Uplands - they have said -
"Yes, O2 advised us yesterday that the release of
the handsets has been delayed again, and to expect delivery by around Monday of next week {15th Nov}. Unfortunately that means we cannot yet guarantee a delivery date"
Bumsticks :\
Please post any other shops that are selling the XDA IIs.
Uplands will not ship to a US customer!
I would love to get a XDA III, but getting it in a black version would be really cool.

xda2s no loner for sale

I might be able to get my hands on some XDA2s at a reasonable price to be able to sell them on to you at a attractive price. - i will be finding out tommorrow.
I'd be willing to sell them at £430.00 + £6 P&P.
These are a one off price and NO contract is nessecary.
They are locked to the O2 UK network but unlocking sofware will probably be out soon?. UK only
Let me know if you are interested. First come first served, either PM or on here I will take the time of the submission first and place you on the reservations list.
I am giving you guys first shout since I know you all love your XDA's.If not they will go on eBay a few days after I get them
This handset is £599.99 on The Link website and £582.83 on Uplands website.
You might want to hold off buying them if they are that expensive as i think you will have trouble reselling them, you dont want to get stuck with 4 of them and be unable to sell them
Expansys is selling the Qtek 2020 (XDA2) for only £399.95 brand new including 12 months warranty and its unlocked for any network
Isn't the XDA2s better than the XDA2?
So for £30.00 more isn't it a good deal u think?
hi guys
i am getting a xda2s on contract from 02 select for 119.99. i have asked this price to be checked twice and as its on the notes of my account i am getting it fot this price. they have none in stock till next monday.
regards kevin
your bills must be high to be with o2 select, they reward their customers by giving lower prices on upgrades and all sort of other benefits
Looks like the supplier is not going to sell me them now at the price I was going to get them for so this thread is dead.
We can do them at that price if anyone is interested but the P&P is £9.95 nextday Royal mail special delivery.
They are in stock right now.

Cheap XDA2s
Hi,
I have read some post and I agree with there staff being crap.
But they are also quite gullable 8) ... any Im excpecting my xd2s tomo for £49.99! on o2 600 but my line rental is also half price!
You really have to blag............
I'm just about to get a new phone as my contract is up with O2 and they wont offer me any upgrades at a reasonable price, and i was just about to order a three handset (Motorola E1000),
But if you can geta IIs for £49.99 and half price line rental, then that would suit me perfectly,
Can you let me know where you are getting it from ?
Cheers

O2 Exec/ JasJar for SALE!!!!

I have Two XDA Exec. for Sale.
Both Brand New Unlocked (Working in UK.. No Scams or Claims) SIM Free
I'm looking around £600 - £550 For them. Boxed, Manuels Chargers etc.. Brand New.
I bought them just for the Contract and will be using the Contract for Business, but the Handset is just too Complex for a Young Professional. Looking for Quick Sale so that i can afford a New Pay as You Go.
Thanks
Any Questions Please E-mail me @ [email protected]
Hey it's you again! For a moment when I read this post, I got a funny sense of deja-vu! :lol:
Let's see if we can stop things a little sooner in this thread. It is possible to buy an O2 Exec completely for around £350, paying off the 12 months contract etc. It is also possible to buy a Qtek from Expansys for about £600 and an iMate JasJar for around £30 more. Needless to say, this latter option comes with a solid warranty from a reputable trader.
Honestly, go flog'em on eBay or return them to O2 and get handsets you want to use... Like you were told in the other thread, this forum is not a marketplace - it's about helping each other. That includes warning the unsuspecting about high prices.
Have a nice day now!
Suggest a Price that i should be selling it for them.. Cuz my Contract is around 450. Anyway and the thing is i need money to pay off my contract and buy a new pay as you go. so.. that is why i want 550 to 600 for it..
Still Cheaper then 650GBP from retailers!
Tell you what, i'm due for a renewal in a few weeks, I'll offer you 100 quid seeing as how you can get them from O2 on a new contract for 140.
Actually
I got mine for 19 quid .. with a 54/mo contract (I needed the 36mb traffic package)

Where to buy WP7 handsets in London tomorrow?

I've heard next to nothing about who/where will be stocking Windows Phone handsets at launch tomorrow morning ... the only thing I've heard is the Orange store Oxford Street will be opening at 7am.
Anybody have news on who'll have SIM free HTC WP7 handsets tomorrow??
I've been trying to track down sim-free handsets myself and the best I've come up with is the Dell Venue Pro which is available to order from Clove, for delivery on the 8th November.
It's proving to be quite difficult to find sim-free phones, especially ones with a keyboard.
No news on high-street stores selling sim-free.
This is really annoying actually...
Big announcement from Microsoft 21st October lanuch in Europe !!! but no Carriers appear to be launching tomorrow... I called Orange the MAIN LAUNCH PARTNER and they say HTC Mozart next week and Samsung Omnia (Orange name will be Cetus) by the end of October... Their STAFF HAVE NO CLUE about WP7 and no details about 8gb or 16gb memory or prices or specific dates etc etc... They just said Nokia N8 confirmed for Friday and New HTC Androids also next week... F$%K knows whats going on!! ....... really good start Microsoft !!!!
I dont know about london but i know the Orange store in london is getting both omnia 7 and the mazart in tomorrow both are 8gb. The Fareham store (town nearer to me) said they will have stock arriving today for sale tomorrow but did not know what they where getting as it depends what there sent from main office.
I have seen some sim free deals around but cant remember off my head where as i will need a contract boo to being poor lol
O2UK have the HD7 in their "Coming Soon" list. Apparently expected 21st Oct
http://www.o2.co.uk/comingsoon/hd7
I called the Orange Store in Croydon they have no idea if WP7 handsets will be there tomorrow....
Thanks for all your replies - sadly it doesn't look like I've missed any launch day availability information then ... it certainly is frustrating.
I suspect pre-ordering online and waiting a few weeks for most of the handsets to ship will be the best option ... unfortunately.
Still hope to be surprised though!

Do you have WP7?

There are shotrages of WP7 devices across both Europe and US and I was wondering how many people managed to get one. I'm waiting for Omnia 7 / Venue Pro since official launch (21st of October) and they are still nowhere to be found in Czech republic or nearby countries.
I have a hd7 from O2 Germany and I love it .
I came from a tp so actually everything is better
came from a touch pro as well, got a HTC 7 Trophy. Really enjoying the upgrade.
I have a LG Optimus 7.
Coming from:
Android 2.1
iPhone 3G
Big improvement over android in usability, better interface over iOS.
Omnia 7
used IPhone 2G, WM6.5
I'm also desperately waiting for the Omnia7, but no luck so far. Seems like the middle EU countries are again left out and treated like the illiterate end of the world
To tell the truth, my patience is not never-ending and I may end up switching to whole other platform since I'm getting more disappointed day by day...
I had an HTC HD7 from T-Mobile
I have been looking for a 16 GB Omnia 7 in Thailand,Malaysia, Singapore and Australia and have had no luck so far even the 8 GB is impossible to find.
Selling like crazy in Springfield, but just happened to go to att store day new shipment arrived. Got it yesterday, so still learning it. Came from iphone 3Gs w/ios 4. Have unlocked Dream that I abuse with any Android version that looks interesting. Am thinking about going back to earlier version as most newer ROMs are dog slow. Also have Nokia 5800 and Epix. So far iphone my fav with jury still out on Focus.
ordered mine through tmous business telesales to get a discount. Got it for 100.00 after 50 mail in rebate. Should be here UPS this afternoon. I can't wait!!!
im in th uk waiting to buy either an omnia7 or hd7 sim free. ill probably buy god willing whichever comes available first. a bit frustrating not being able to buy one till now and the wait goes on.
Could people who bought some WP7 unlocked device point me in the direction where they bought it? Thanks.
Got my Mozart through my carrier.
HTC Trophy from Vodafone. Well, actually it's my wifes and I'm jealous as h**l. I am amazed at how fast, fluid and responsive the UI is.
I'm stuck on my contract until September then a Touch Pro 7 for me. Until then, my HD2 will suffice.
I'm hoping to buy an HTC Mozart sometime. Such a beautiful looking phone. Too bad it's not even available in the US. And even it it were, it would probably be AT&T only like most other WP7 phones. God damn Verizon.
No Shortage in AUS
Got mine thru carrier and they have plenty in stock according to the Sales guy.
Loving it so far and it came sim unlocked or Telstra is just not locking them up.
Sim lock is a pain in the arse when you travel to other countries and one of the reasons I went with the Mozart.
