 Bad news for those patiently (or not) awaiting the arrival of Satio in the UK tomorrow ... it's been delayed. Carphone Warehouse, the UK's largest independent mobile retailer, was due to launch the 12.1 MP handset tomorrow, but that has been put on hold with no date given as to when it will go on sale. One imagines (and hopes) that it's soon given that sales material and expectations had all been geared towards a launch date of tomorrow. The delay was only announced today so it is presumably something outside Carphone's control. Whether or not this delay will affect Orange and Vodafone's launches isn't clear yet. It may be that it's just Carphone that's affected and the other two will go ahead with a launch tomorrow as scheduled. Carpone would be selling generic unbranded, unlocked handsets whereas both Orange and Vodafone stores would sell branded locked handsets, hence the stock assignments for each of the three companies would be different and thus it may be just Carphone that's experiencing a delay. We'll know soon enough ... -------------------- Bessie Braddock: Winston you are drunk. Churchill: Yes, but in the morning I shall be sober, and you will still be ugly.

Just to let you know I have had my Satio on pre order for quite a while now and I decided to follow it up today and got the following response;
QUOTE Dear Sir, Thank you for your email. There has been a problem with the software on the Satio and the release has been put back for now. We are still awaiting a new release date for this handset. Kind Regards Michael This is the response from mobile fun which I have always received a good service from, just a little disappointed as I sat on my HTC diamond screen and its becoming really hard to use! |

I've played with it on saturday in CPW and it looks excellent, strange thing is that you can at the moment only get it on Orange and Vodafone 24month contracts £30 p/m with free phone.
Now I'm with O2 and its not available just yet on there which is a bugger for me as I'm due my upgrade in 4 weeks time so come on SE sort it out with O2
