Will this phone work with North American 3G networks on the 1900 MHz band, or are we stuck with the Edge version?

Oh O2,
Finally ordered today, their supervisors are so sick of me!
I'm down to £15/month from 30 so I'd be stupid to change providor! Plus a coupla months free rental, but then they seriously messed me about on EVERYTHING I've needed. If anyone can organise an official complaint process with so many of us I'd be very up for signing it/giving my details for them to see the reality.
Fingers crossed no cancellation email, just had the confirmation one...
All we wanted was the truth & it must count as mis-advertising.

Just ordered mine from O2 at 5pm. They said 3-4 days, and not many left.
I had to pay £49.99 to upgrade, she wasn't budging on that price when i phoned back to cancel my contract. But offered me £10 off my bill every month, so its £20 instead of £30 for online 200. Can't grumble really.

and while we're on the subject why is it EVERY time i ring o2 in the morning the system is down and they have no idea what time it's back on...I'm sure they just tell people that to reduce the backlog of calls waiting!!!! surprising how many times up can hang up and ring straight back and suddenly it's up and running again!!!

o2 are a nightmare...had the same problems with them when trying to get a N80 which i've now sent back coz it was horrible!!! Ordered my K800 lunchtime and just had an email telling me it's out of stock...rang them to cancel my contract and been promised it in 3-5 days...same thing that happened with the nokia!!!! Don't take their 1st answer as law and if it's not an answer you like then keep trying!!!! But trust me if it doesn't turn up in 5 days I'll be back onto them!!!

Having just read several of the comments about O2 I do feel a lot better. At least they are treating every one with contempt and not just me.
O2 are making themselves look very un professional and to be honest I have just requested my PAC code because I am so pissed off. O2 get a grip!!!!

Will everybody stop moaning. I have contacted O2 since Monday regarding the Sony k800 and yes your right you get a different story each time. Ie its on the system but we carnt order it yet or our system is down. The trick is just ring back every few hours i have ordered mine today about half an hour ago and it's on it's way. Gud news allround and only 2 days later than O2 said they would have them. No big deal people Chill out!

O2 told me last week they would have them in on the 26th so i rang them up then and they said they had them in stock but had to wait for them to go on the system so i rang back today and they said the samethning they told me to ring back on Friday, do they have them or not ? i rang an Sony Ericsson Rep i know and he told me that phone networks wont be getting them unitil the First of the July

As far as i can see, o2 don't know their arse from their elbow!!...talked to several different people today, all telling me a different thing. They still won't confirm that they have them in stock, only that they are on their system!.. what ever that means?!... I think it's a ploy to get your custom, by telling you they have them but in reality you could be waiting another 2 or 3 weeks, by which time they would be available on vodafone or orange. Been with orange for 7 years and never had any problems, knew it was a mistake!!! bummer!!

You forgot to mention one very important issue with the Z710 - making telephone calls.
If its anything like the rest of samsung's range, the sound quality of calls will be appalling. Bearing in mind that these devices are primarily telephones, you'd have though Samsung may put a little more effort in, especially in view of their previous model's problems in this area, but it seems that they concentrate too much on the gimmicks and lady-friendly designs and not enough on the bread and butter of a mobile - telephony - even the more recent models (D600/E900 etc etc) suffer from this issue. Its high time Samsung resolved this and only then would they compete with Nokia/SE.
IMHO the K800 would be a wiser choice than the Z710. Especially if you plan on using it as a telephone.

as stated previously o2's supply chain is set for today so they should be in stock and able to be ordered from this afternoon from customer service - although customer service don't do orders you must either mean retentions or sales

Be Aware!!!!! anyone who's ordered a k800i on o2. If you pre ordered and got an e-mail saying it was out of stock, you have to re order cause your original order gets cancelled. I only found this out because i phoned to get a tracking number for the delivery. Not very good o2.
