    Getting another phone, wait for WP7?

    Well I have an early out of my vodafail contract, and want to move to tmobile so was thinking of getting a Wildfire with them as a cheap phone to sell on to pay towards a WP7 phone (to compliment my Samsung Galaxy S) as I would then get 3gb of data included free instead of 1gb as an option

    Any other suggestions?

    Re: Getting another phone, wait for WP7?

    HTC are supposed to be unveiling a windows 7 phone a week on weds (15th). It's rumoured to be the HD3 (I think also known as WP7). They haven't released the specs yet, but worth waiting to see what it is and the specs before deciding on a phone. As Windows phone 7 has just been released to manufacturing, it shouldn't be long before the phones are out.
    I do know everything, just not all at once. It's a virtual memory problem.

    Re: Getting another phone, wait for WP7?

    because windows is still suprisingly good? I just ditched android to go back to my Windows 6.5.5, its much better than you think and to me most of the apps are useless on the android. I need Office/satnav/movies/remote desktop/emails, does all that flawlessly so cant dis it .

    Id say wait finlay, its so close now and if all the major phone companies are backing it then it can be bad at all....

    Re: Getting another phone, wait for WP7?

    Yeah the only way I'd really be getting one is if I can get out of my current contract, still trying to do so but the end is the 1st of October, still trying to get a straight answer from them as Vodafail are useless

    The HD3/7 or whatever its called is out late next month and will be o2 only for midway thru next year.
    Doesnt bother me as I'm on o2, does bother me because my normal suppliers cant get the bloody thing as they are all going to o2 apparently...
