HTC Prophet (Qtek s200/JAMin/XDA Neo) + Atom help! (again)

LeperousDust · 20 Apr 2006 at 00:03

So i'm still looking at getting a new phone, its a toss between the Atom (impossible to get anywhere and has its short commings) and the HTC Prophet AKA iMate Jamin/Qtek s200/XDA neo/probably something else by tmobile soon!

Pictures, just cause they're sexy:
From left to right; The Atom, JAMin, s200, Neo:

Ideally i'd love to get these on some kind of web'n'walk package by tmobile. But i know this isn't going to happen, best i can do is the vario, which is only comparable to the iMate Jam .

Is it possible to buy just the sim card off tmobile with a web and walk package, at a discounted rate, since they wouldnt be paying for a "free" phone within my 18 month contract. That way i could buy a sim free phone of my choice.

I severely doubt i can do this, and if not are there any nice bundles/deals/contracts out there i should look at. The only unlimited web O2 contract i can find is some £50 per month business one! :eek:

.

What are my options then? I'd love this flext and web'n'walk with 25% off but not with the vario! Need a new phone soon to, this k700i is really getting to me now, the phone on a whole is failing and its frustrating me.

You could always get the XDA Neo on O2 then sign up with T-Mobile, grab whatever free phone you get and flog it on ebay? With a bit of luck you can get something that will cover your O2 contract and be quids in.

Wow, thats why i love this forum, thats actually not a bad idea. Except i don't think the neo is due to be released just yet on O2, plus wouldnt the phone be locked, so i couldn't use the flext sim?

As far as I know, o2 phones generally arn't sim locked and can be used on any network.

So thats a free phone and a 12 month contract? That seems quite cheap to me.

again not as cheap as this why not just pay for the web usage or get a bundle with the the £'s you will save!
