Confirmed. Just poped in yesterday to T-Mobile on Princess St., Edinburgh, asked for it and manager just took out one from under the counter.
In his opinion i signed the first contract in the UK (been in the shop at 7pm, stock arrived at 6pm) but I doubt it .
So for £100-handset, 12months contract, £20/monthly this toy is mine.
!!!!!!
That is ridiculous pricing!! I wonder how fast I can get up to Edinburgh...
Just been on the T-Mobile website, and they seem to be in the process of updating a few things... and the Vario II has gone missing from the list of available phones, so it looks like the Vario III may be coming!
Think they started shipping last Wednesday if you phoned them up. I phoned on Thursday, got mine Friday.
First contract in the country indeed
Me too, phoned Thursday, got mine first thing Friday 26th.

Heh, I've had mine since last Saturday! Some have had theirs since last Thursday, so that store manager is a week behind the times!
Sigh....
Did we really need yet another thread about T-Mobile availability....?
Anyway, give it a few more hours and the place will be flooded wit AT&T Tilt..
To be fair though, most of the other posts in the threads about T-Mobile are relating to upgrades, and no-one has really said a lot about pricing and contracts etc. I'm on O2 at the minute, but I like the look of Web 'n Walk and obviously am very interested in the Vario III, so I'm keen to hear what kind of prices new customers are looking at. I also want to be able to walk into the store and take a look at the handset, or order online, where most of the other posts (if not all) involve customer service phone calls.
Well, I got mine through Scancom. Ordered last Friday, £0 for the phone, on the Flext 35 package with 1gb WnW at £37.50 for 18 months.
I have been waiting what seems like forever for my friends at&t store to get the phuckin things. What gives? Is anyone else having a problem finding these available at the stores. The funniest thing is that my friend works at a corporate store in Orange County. Either hes lying to me which would not be healthy, or they really haven't gotten any yet.
No trash talking please, I am trying to be a good boy so lets just keep it on track.
I called like 6 or 7 stores here in NJ on Friday and none of them had it. A few of them got them in and sold out and the rest didn't even get any. The ones that did get them only got like 2 or 3 each.
I ended up just ordering one over the phone. I hope it gets here soon!

...not everyone has it right now but they will in a week once fedex gets to them
My local att store guy is picking some up tonight at his warehouse. I'm getting one tommorrow.
When I picked mine up last Friday, the store had only recieved two units. I think AT&T pushed the few units they had out early, and they probablly won't start flooding into stores until late this week/next week.
Yes!!!
I just got my Google maps to work. Had to let it sit and wait for the satellites.
If I hit that end phone key one more time
i got 2 units from taiwan, pretty good!!
I've had a succession of pocket PCs since the ipaq 5450 right through to the Vario II and today I took delivery of the Vario III.
I installed Tomtom, google maps, live search and memory map. They all work perfectly.
Am I doing something wrong ?
mine came too - am farting about with it now!
Got mine at 2pm this afternoon - this is how it looks now:
hi patcooke,
how did you get the screen to look like that !!
Ofiaich ...
same as little_rock - farting about! - and I see that, like me, you also live in the people's republic of yorkshire
Hi patcooke!
OK, I kept the big clock, so better try to learn to fart around a bit more..
Yes, I live in the Republic of Yorkshire too, East side, but of Emerald Isle descent.

What carrier did your Vario II come by? Mine should have came yesterday :-(
hmmm I think it was mercury or jaguar or some sh!t... it wasnt dhl i know that much... I'll look later when i get hom - i till got the bag.. did you check with your neighbours to see if it is therE?
I had them send it to my works so I wouldn't miss it. The T-mobile sales guy mentioned UPS but when I pounced on him yesterday he said they don't usually do phones.

Mine (T-mobile) came by Lynx parcel delivery due to the Royal Mail Strike - I ordered the phone last Friday at about 6pm and the phone arrived Monday. So they are still trying to do next day delivery..
I ordered mine on Monday, no joy yet. Supposed to arrive by Lynx yesterday. Phone T-Mobile, they basically said sorry, tough luck it'll turn up eventually.

I ordered mine Tuesday & was promised next-day delivery, but it was late, arriving at 10:30am this morning Worth the wait though
T-Mobile store
I went into the T-Mobile store last night to get one, after speaking with a rep on Sunday and being told it would be £80 on an 18 month tariff at £32.50p/m (with the £5 p/m discount they're currently running). The checked the price again when I got there, and they said on that tariff it should be £139.99, but since the other guy had told me £80 they'd do it for that. Then when they got to the checkout and it asked for payment, it was only £49.99!
Very happy indeed!!! There's a few things I'm not sure about tho, like I can't find any settings for HSDPA, no network wizard thing included, and strangely no satnav software (even tho T-Mobile point out it has built-in GPS) and they didn't even offer me any!
I ordered my N1 sunday Night and expected it to ship out on Monday and arrrived On Tuesday.
I had called Google Morning Monday10:00am and in the evening at 9:45pm. They didnot have any tracking info, they told me unit hadnt been shipped, could take 1-3 Business days to ship.
Today, I heard a truck pull and I Ran downstairs like a kid on christmass Morning, and Fedex was there with the phone. I double checked google's system to check and it still says "unshipped".? Im assuming its probaly a dealy in thier system.
Anyone else had a similar thing happen to them?
Also....Ive read some people say to let it Charge for 12 hours,before turning it on to Condition the Battery.........But thats just being mean....OH God
why are you wasting time typing on this forum, go play with your new phone!
Why do you even care? If i were you, i would forget about the shipping thing and enjoy the phone. =)
Its charging......I'm Wait for the Green Light 2 go.....
Honestly......Secretly Dreaming I could accidentaly be shipped two....I've had it happend on other items i'be bought online...
hmm i ordered mine sunday evening as well. I had it shipped to a friends house though..guess i know where i'm heading after lunch!
Ya, if it still says shipped, I would wait a day or two. If it still remains unchanged, be a bad person and call to ask on the status. If they say it was delivered, say you weren't home for the past few days and you thought you would've received a call about it coming, which you didn't.
I love being evil.

Don't get too excited.. On my last N1 order the same exact thing happened to me. I checked online called them and they both said "unshipped" but I had already received the device. I'd say about 2-3 days later I checked online again and the status had changed from unshipped to shipped. Also I had received a phone call from FedEx on the day my phone was delivered saying that I had to be there to sign for it.
You guys got lucky.
I ordered mine on Sunday, figured shipped out Monday and next day delivery on Tuesday... sike.
I got mine Thursday. Talk about a punch in the gut. It was the longest week in history.
Hello everyone,
I purchased ZUK Z1 Smartphone from Tomtop ebay store (tomtop.usa). The description said that the smartphone has 2 years warranty.
After 4 months of use the fingerprint scanner of the phone stopped working. I contacted the manufacturer and he told me to contact the reseller.
So I contacted Tomtop. They apologized about that and told me to send it back to them and they will replace it with a new one or they will refund me.
I sent the smartphone to the address they gave me and they received it. Here is the tracking number: RE541532254GR
From that day I sent them 7 messages to inform me about the current status of the replacement / refund but they did not answer me. Then I contacted ebay support. They told me that they will try to contact them.
After that I received a message from Tomtop claiming they didn't receive the smartphone. I sent them the tracking number to prove that they have receive it but I never get a reply. It seems that they have blocked me.
When I try to buy anything from Toptom I received the following message: “The seller isn't accepting bids or offers from you.”
After that I did a google search tomtop.com scam and there was a lot of people complaining about them.
Now I understand that I have lost my phone and I am really sad about that. That is why I share my experience with you. I want to protect other people from facing the same situation. Please stay away from Tomtop. There are other stores to buy ZUK phones.
P.S. I told my story to some friends and they will try to help me. They bought some cheap items from ebay tomtop store to give them a negative feedback. They said that this is only way to press them to give my phone back.
Hello, have very similar experiences with Tomtop.usa:
So i bought a phone (Zuk Z1) from Seller 12 November 2015 from ebay. Got the phone and all was good, i got a 6 months warranty on the phone. But then the phone started crashing about 2 months ago. The seller sayed i had to ship the phone to Germany (i live in Finland).
I shipped the phone 10.3.16 and it arrived to the seller 23.3.16. Before they got my phone the seller said that i would get a new phone from them. Then they said they had shipped a new phone 24.3.16. But the seller did not give me the tracking number, i had to ask for it very many times before i got it. But when got it, the shipment was already in Finland but it was on the other side of Finland and i checked from the post office that the package was not for me. Then i contacted* the seller again and they said* they would ship another one.
Then weeks went by and the phone did not come. I have asked many times from the seller where my package is and about the package tracking number. And the seller also lied that the package is already in Finland (how can they know without the tracking number?). They said they did not have a tracking number and today they said that the post office has AGAIN lost the package. I think its bull**bleep** and i don't think the seller has even shipped my phone.
Now im waiting that paypal id prosessing my claim. Hope to get my money back.
same experience- very dangerous seller. It has put me off buying phone from abroad now.
I bought it from TomTop also, had some trouble ordering it (they insisted to send it from China even they have it in EU, where I am) and I knew if something breaks on the phone I wouldn't send it back because they're untrusty... I'll rather fix it in some shop in my country which does the job. Too much hassle and waiting with this type of resellers.

Yeah, that was the same address i shipped the phone to.
I did a paypal dispute and i hope i get my money back that way.
The hole scenario is quite strange, because Tomtop.usa has big websites and they are authorised seller for a bunch of phones.
I have an order in with Tomtop for a Xiaomi phone. They asked me for pictures of the front and back of my credit card. That seemed kind of fishy to me. Now that I've seen this thread, I think I'll just cancel the order.
bad experience with TOMTOP, AGAIN!!!
Hi all,
I ordered a flashlight, accidently thw wrong type and sent it back. Although delivery is confirmed by my postal office, TOMTOP refuses to admit it is delivered at the address they provided me with. Now I understand all the bad reviews and stories about TOMTOP on the web.
Don't buy anything here!!!:crying:
