I spoke to a person from o2 shop today, he told me that if I wait it til jan, I wont pay as much as £99.99 for upgrade, and I might get half price discount on the monthly payment.

Just spoke to o2 UK and they are asking £99.99 for the upgrade and on top of that they have advised that is does NOT come with Tom Tom software. Any comments on this ??

The orbit does come with sat nav its only free with sat nav on some deals.
Not every one wants Sat Nav so to help with costs you don't have to pay for the extra software. If you already have software you can run it on the Orit. It does have GPS on all Orbits just not the sat nav software. Ditto with Wifi It can use WiFi for VOIP but dosnt come with it onboard.

I was thinking of getting one of these from T-mobile (I know it's the MDA III but it's the same phone). I've had the same contract with o2 for 10 years and but I'm getting fed up with the data charges and suspect they'll go through the roof with a phone of this style. T-mobile offer "unlimited" data for £7.50. Does anyone know if o2 have something similar in the pipeline, or could you share your download costs on similar devices?

jbillyack & mojo: no one at o2 seems to know much about the orbit. i've just spoke to tech support and they have told me that the orbit doesn't come with GPS software (either tomtom or copilot) and that you have to buy it seperately. bit miffed about that really!
mojo, where did you hear about the copilot software? do you have anymore info?

if you wait o2 are giving you free CoPiot sat nav software, worth £159.99. which will make your tom tom work. I dont think it will work without this,

Mant: Got it direct from my local O2 shop on Saturday morning. I tried to get in on Friday night but even though they had them in stock they wouldn't give me one.
I haven't used Skype much before so wouldn't know about that sorry. Is it worth installing and if so do you need a PDA version?
It doesn't seem that sluggish at all, better than the O2 mini s, but as before it does slow down when a lot of applications are open.

@ stubtoe: Could you let us know where you where able to buy the handset from in the UK? Was it direct from o2? Also have you tried Skype on it at all, what's the overall performance of the phone like, is it sluggish? The 200Mhz worries me a bit on this phone.

Just got one yesterday. Great phone/pda. Had the mini s b4 and this is much better as its just a lot smaller and fits in my pocket better.
One problem though. Its marketed by o2 as having 'GPS' yet it doesn't come with the tomtom software that the germany o2 orbit does. Why not??? Why can't o2 UK include this rather than us having to buy it seperately...
