just installed RLS7? checking...no issues yet.

But the sound is too low.

ZTe is gving a crap headphone!

there is a audio hack for increasing volume ryt?

doesnt work so well. if you try with bluetooth stereo headphones, then the sound is pretty reasonable.

AFAIK JJ is better than that and is also actively developed with fixes released to reported problems much faster. Paul's supporting many more devices so he won't be able to devote so much time for just the Blade.

lavans4u's friends were lucky to get get OLED one's when they picked it from Orange store. My friend picked it from Argos and it turned out to be TFT(Grey). Though when I keep mine (OLED) and his phone side by side I can't make out much difference in either color or brightness. May be I don't have that good pair eyes.

has anybody seen the video on the ebay page onto youtube , the case seems pretty nice made of nice thick resin and wont give way that easily, im looking for something similar, right balance between hardness and no worries to pull the phone out of it ever.

please post back in case anyone comes across this.

This is one widely reported news. AFAIK, the only way to tell difference is through the build no. :)

Guys, how do I get the Blades from Switzerland? A colleague of mine is traveling to Zurich today and will return in a week. Can he pick up the phones from the Orange stores?

Here's the link - "Orange" Orange San Francisco - Orange Online Shop

Do I have to unlock them here? What is the best way to go about this?

Those dont look like prepaid plans rather contract based ones. You can get it from the Orange store.
Another company called Valora also offers this phone in Switzerland. He can try there too.

Unlocking is quite easy and free. :)

Is Prepaywizard same as prepaymaina? If not, I think prepaywizard has not been discussed in detail.

Thats great! But can you break it down for me? Or rather him? I have to send him detailed instructions on how to get the phones. <sigh>

I think Prepay Wizard is different from Prepay mania - it says 20:20 Mobile UK Ltd
