The thing I like about Vodafone's offering, is that they allow incoming & outgoing tweets at no extra cost..if you're a twitterholic like me, then that's a deal-maker (or is it a deal breaker??!!!).

I don't think I've seen another phone out there at the moment which works so completely hand-in-glove with the mobile entrepreneur as the Nokia N97. I'm just saving up the pennies to get one as soon as it's released :) Olu – brilliantly put & I agree completely when you say that the N97 is in a super heavy weight class of its own.

I dont mind if it comes out in June, because my dad said he will get it for me after my exams, but I think I want to get it on Orange contract, because the phone seems pretty expensive to buy sim - free, and then you can put it on a contract or PAYG, which means even more, at least on contract you pay a fixed rate and get the phone free.... I hope they put the phone on Orange or O2, because if its on T-Mobile I dont think I'll get it, becuse of the fact that T-Mobile have really bad signal where I live, whereas I'm on orange now, and know I can get signal here. O2 and Orange are the biggest networks in the UK, what with BT owning O2, I'll be surprised if they do not accept it, as they have the greatest following of customers in the UK....

If the Mobile operators aren't careful, they'll find themselves in the same anachronistic position as the record industry's reaction to file sharing of mp3's...the best way forward is to embrace the change and find new ways of generating revenue. Surely the likes of Orange & O2 should be able to do this..or, perhaps they are like a herd of elephants that can't easily change direction, as they are stuck with inhibiting telecoms infrastructures. Yet I don't think that's a good enough excuse - after all, why is it that T-Mobile seems willing to allow Skype on the N97? The answer, I believe, is that they are willing to embrace change, and move with it. That's what Nokia seems to be doing, and when they "sneeze", the rest of the telecoms world better get their handkerchiefs out!! Hi Olu – yes, I agree wholeheartedly with what you say.

Any Operator that feels that their profits will be depleted because of the introduction of skype onto the Nokia N97 should think twice because any plot not to take on the product would make them lose patronage by their customers to other operators who are happy with the deal.Their main focus should be to consolidate their customer bases by taking on this product and ultimately promoting customer satisfaction and also shoring up revenue.The operators should realise that it's a buyers market.Therefore if o2 does not take the N97,I would not renew my contract with them but cancel or terminate it and take the Nokia N97 with the other operator that markets it.They should bear in mind that this product that we are talking about is a super heavyweight class of its own.Therefore,if they act stupidly or unwisely,the repercursions might be very grave for them.That's all I have to say.
