on 3 network, did u have any problems with MMS etc?
the last time i bought a phone that wasn't picked up in ireland i had a lot of trouble with the basics as i couldn't load the networks firmware.

From Ireland myself and don't think any of our networks are picking this phone up for a good while. I've got an Lg viewty on the 3 network for the last year and a half and they said they've no plans at the moment of carrying this phone. You can always get it sim free though!! I was waiting for this phone but bought an lg arena sim free now as its a fair bit cheaper (bout 150 euros)and intend using it on the 3 network. Rumours are that meteor will carry the Lg arena at some stage but its out 2 months now and there's no development form them.

I don't know whether to buy the Viewty 2, Arena, the GD900 Crystal wait for the watch phone or wait for the 12 megapixel camera phone out later this year (what I'll more than likely do is buy them all anyway)

just as a general price estimate superetrader has this done as 500 sterling for sim free unlocked,its the first general indication of price we can guesstimate off!not too bad,bout 200 dearer than current Lg arena price tho.....decisions decisions

All it needs, is complete GPS system. Would be great to have Tom Tom or better Garmin on board! Google Maps solutions is just waste of money on built-in GPS receiver ...

Although Viewty Smart and Arena do have some similarities, I'm guessing the LG Arena is more entertainment and multimedia focused while the Viewty Smart is obviously more camera-centric due to its 8 megapixel camera and imaging pictures. It's all up to personal preferences ~ but I love the fact that no matter the selection, S-Class UI comes standard!
