  • The_Omega_Man

    What if the phone is already on it’s face?

  • John

    You probably won’t need to be a member when it actually goes live – it does say in the text that the site isn’t live yet.

  • Nick

    Will there be a HTC Desire Z that is equivalent to the G2 that I can buy unlocked completely? (No T-mobile Bull, but still usable on the network? all the same bands)

  • Obvious Robert

    Vodafone????? Aaarrrrgghhh!!! What about us original T-Mobile UK G1 owners?? Vodafone are overpriced with terrible data contracts. Looks like I’ll have to opt for an original Desire when my contract’s up in 6 weeks time. Damn!! :(
