Grrrr! :evil: O2 really are arses! They sent me an SMS this afternoon offering me "FREE text & picture messages 7-8pm every day for 6 months". They went on: "To join text "Happy Hour" to 20102 (free txt). Terms apply see O2.co.uk"
Where the hell on the O2 website are the terms?! How am I supposed to find them?!
As a result I'm going to ignore this special offer (cos there must be a catch) and they can continue to stick their over-priced picture messages up their holes. It's irritating how badly organised O2 seem to be at everything!
</rant>
Thanks for reading. Glad I've got that off my chest!

Although they didn't say, I took a guess and voila

Oh. Maybe I'm just being a thicky then. :wink: Perhaps I'm the only stupid user of O2 who didn't try that. You'd think they might have told us though.
Bad, naughty O2!
Thanks for the tip, xanth
No worries. Like you said though, they didn't say. How was anyone supposed to know.
My boss got that same message and when he replied he was told he wasn't eligble!
DOH!
Same, reply says you are not eligible :?: :?: :? :shock:
when i replied i got a message back saying
"Thanks, Within 5 working days you will recieve a text confirming when o2 Happy Hour has been set up> Terms apply, see o2.co.uk. Bussiness customers excluded"
lets see what happens..
John
at least you guys got a message....o2 just ignore me :wink:

I was talking to AT&T business customer service regarding my account. Before i got off the phone i asked a question regarding the availability of WM6 for the treo 750. He said the upgrade is out and available to all thier retail stores in effort to upgrade the existing stock of Treo 750 with WM5 to WM6 in preperation for the arrival of the new TREO 750 with WM6 included. Once the above mentioned is complied with, the upgrade for existing users will hit the perverbial shelves...
Giving Back..

WM6 ROM
I was talking to my Tarot Card reader, and she told me that the WM6 ROM would be arriving when the marriage of the moon and the cat had passed the arrival of the white knight. She also told me that I would blessed with much fortune after a period of intense hunger and longing. So...I got that going for me!

Anyways. Thanks for the info, jhowle.
Why is it when you try to post honest info, you get met with snide remarks from people who have swelled heads and think they know everything. I don't understand, why even post post this kind of small mindless dribble.this is not this first time i have gotten this kinda reply...

jhowle,
Thanks for posting your info here. I think we're all a little jaded when it comes to the multiple dates, timeframes, plans and timelines posted from AT&T, Cingular, Palm, and others. I'm hoping that your information pans out. I guess I need to stop at the AT&T store on the way home today...
Can anyone confirm that the stores have the update? A link would be nice.
Thanks,

Or a helpful leak from an AT&T emplo...errr...anonymous uploader.
*innocent face*
What do you mean Snide?
I think this poster has as much chance of getting an honest answer getting information about WM6 from a gypsy then tech support from AT&T. Poster is making a Joke (true) but a joke none the less. Don't be so sensitive!
Oh.. im not jaded at all.. infact the blackberry curve is looking pretty right about now. I've been surving this country for 12 years in the USAF. Waiting for this new upgrade to come out is sorta small compared to current events and you would understand if you were in my shoes.
Thanks

At least somebody here gets the point I was trying to make. The bottom line is that there is no way of knowing what AT&T, or Verizon, Or T-Mobile, or anyone is going to do at any time. It does not matter what anyone says here. If I create a fake avatar with the AT&T logo and pretend I am the CEO of AT&T and tell you it will be released tomorrow, will you believe me? If you do, what happens when it does not show up? I truly appreciate any info anyone gives here...HONESTLY I DO!!! I just happen to think this is all very funny, so I am trying to lighten things up.
I gotta go now. My numerologist is here to tell me who is going to win the presidential election.
Alright,, thats enough for me,, i'm done posting.. period.

For all the times people tell you their hard drive is broken.. Or their CPU is busted.............. and the end result is they didnt turn their monitor on, I want to hear about it.
Im not... but...
I had a boss in an international Corp called "Flextronics" And i has a friend From IT department... my boss was so stupid and always... I dont know how but... my IT's Friend moves the PC where my boss works on his reports...
He said: Like a Big Cowboy!!!

Oh! ...i say.
Its truth--- maybe you have downloaded a virus with a Pornographic pictures attached...

And I told him, why are you searching for the "W"?
He tolds me... I wanna type " dobliu dobliu dobliu dot CONNNNNNNN!!!! hahahahahaha
I told this kind of thing to my IT's friend and next day all the keyboards has the "w" letter on Fluorescent Orange color!!!! hahahaha
Imagine that Im from Mexico...
I don't want to sound like I completely hate IT departments, but I can NOT stand mine!
I go to me guys and tell them about an issue that I have verified with numerous people, but NOOOOOO, the problem is always with me. Really? My computer freezes because of YOUR update? While I'm busting my ass selling all day, they are in the back bs'n about football and browsing the web.
I can't stand them!
I love how people get soo mad at me when I ask them to restart their machine. Or not to have one hundred excel spreadsheets opened. I have people who will have anything and everything open then get mad cause IE is crashing. Hahaha. The best ever was I had a user that was offsite was really upset that she couldnt use her home networked wireless printer when she was 600 miles away. She kept repeating "It's wireless this is rediculous!!!!! I'm returning it as soon as I get home!!". I mean I could have set it up but come one Im not the at home IT guy.
well, a month ago I bought Blackstone, and I feel good )
and as thankful user I would like to donate my Himalaya to somebody of developers on this site. I hope it will help to build more good and stable roms.
Himalaya (originally it's I-mate / Qteck) fully working, it comes with additional battery, earphones, cradle and leathercase. maybe something more, I don't remember already.
touch screen of the device is burst in several places, but is still working. for development use you don't have to replace it.
that's all about it.
now how to get? I live in Israel, so you pay only shipping or in a month I'm gonna visit Germany(Nurnberg) and I can take it with me.
btw: I do not speak english very well, so sorry
Yes i have to new Hima
My suggestion is to send Master Ather90 the Hima. He's a little older than 18 and his last Hima is broken. So he left our forum and switched to another. He was one of our most activ developers and reacht moderator status. The problem for you might be his place, as he lives in Bahrain, but fro Germany it is no problem to send via DHL as a gift, with custom declaration. As the device is worth aproximately 50€, it is possible that he has to pay a small amont of tax.
I think, a lot of people miss him and his work, so you would do us a big favoir.
Very good Idea.....

I havent gone anywhere, im still here its just that i have my Final Exams this month, i'll be finished on 23rd and then im on the heat
also, on 10th June i celebrate my 19th Birthday and i would love to have the Himalaya
yeah, the truth is that I would like to give it to ather90. I used one of his rom and liked it.
so be it.
shipping may be the problem for me. so I can take it to germany, I will stay there for a couple of weeks (17-30 june) and everyone is welcome to come and to transfer it to ather90.
That is great, you're the man of the day, Kap60HaT!
I wanted to send my own secundary Xda to ather but then I got in trouble with the Qtek I used the other day. So I have got the information to send a gift from Germany to Bahrain via DHL. I can send you the customs declaration too. It's some where around here . I will ask for the shipping asap, maybe you can send it from Nürnberg to ather90. If it is a prob for an israelian guy to send to the middle east, you have to post it to me if noone else could visit you, because I live ca. 500km to the north west.
We will get this job done, I'm sure.
great, really appreiciated Kap6oHaT
tell me once you are there and i'll let you know my address
from Israel there's no post service to Bahrain. and on Deutsche Post site, I saw it's about 14-15 euro, so there will be no problem.
I will need an exact address. you may pm me.
good news all, im back
just got the news from home that my device is there, soon i'll start cooking (once im dont with my eye opt.)
Cool, Kap6oHaT +1 !
Ather
Congr8z brother and gud heart that person have who sent it to you. looking forward for good cooked roms for himalaya by you.
If you are an orange customer you can cancel your orange contract as they are changing there terms and conditions. Just need to call and say you want to terminate because of terms and conditions changes and say you recived a text message (which shud have been sent to everyone but i didnt get one). They will try and talk you out of it but cannot keep you on. There are no fee's and you can keep your phone. Once cancelled feel free to take out another contract. Only valid for a couple of weeks so hurry. If this saves you money which it will feel free to donate for my advice. pm me thanx
Unfortunately this is old news ... loads of threads around XDA on this subject.
But for those that don't know ..
Orange sent all their subscribers a text (mine was on the 27th) basically saying your Ts & Cs have changed and details are available on their website.
Most people would ignore this but there is a lengthy thread on Money Saving Expert http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/...html?t=1825687 that details everyones experiences.
In brief Orange changed the contract so you are entitled to cancel.
At 3pm yesterday (Friday) the legal team at Orange said that the clause did not apply to those who could not show the effective changes in the previous three months i.e. going over their allowances or dialling 0870 numbers.
I suggest that anyone wishing to take advantage of this 'opportunity' reads all the threads on MSE before phoning Orange as there are some things that you can do in advance to assist your cause ;-)
If you still want to donate for old news feel free.
MODS PLEASE CLOSE THIS THREAD.
Hehehehe, I just had to post this...
My phone carrier is iWireless, in Iowa, USA. We are offered the Pantech Duo (not sure what number) for like $40US with a two year contract. I have a Kaiser, and my wife has a converted Tilt... we're not interested in a 'new' phone, but it is time to re-sign my contract, and I figured I'd look at what back-up/spare phones I could get cheap.
I wanted to do some research about the Pantech Duo, and see what was known about it. I first searched here, only to find it is shunned (I don't blame you), and that there USED to be a few forums for it, but they seem to have aged out...
So, I went to the Pantech site. What I read there I couldn't just ignore...
Here is the whole page, but you can't read it well...
So, here is the close-up...
Worth a laugh...
I lol'd....
Hahaha love it, had to check the pantech site to confirm, http://www.pantechusa.com/phones theres the link if anyone else wants to check it.
Great find though haha
Sam
It has been changed now, but I still go back to this post to get a good laugh when I need it.
That's too funny LOL
epic win FTW!
Haha nice. I don't even know what they possibly could've meant.
Ha ha ha..
LoL
Nice work dude
Thanks!
err, Um, Hey, Thanks!
(apparently our posts have to have more than 10 letters... odd)
Heheheh. Just saw it on a second visit to this thread. Looks like some web designer lost his job (or forgot to remove filler text!)
LMFAO. I bet he still has his job.
It is odd, my dad insists that it was done deliberatly to make us all take notice of them, and therefore be more prone to buy from them... He just doesn't get that in this case, the phone quality doesn't support the 'bad publicity is STILL publicity' theory...
I'm sure it was a case of someone taking the un-finished slides and either running late on his due date to turn it in, or the text was corrected and not saved to the right file before submission.
There was another example of this not too long ago. I can't find the link at the moment but the guys entire conversation was saved into the advertisement about lingerie he was buying for his gf.
