Cheap Way To Own XDA?

Guys,

Really want an XDA, either the 2, 2i or 2s and at a push the new exec.

Ive considered purchasing on ebay but perhaps that isnt such a good idea.

I would ideally like to use my existing 02 PAYG card.

Any ideas?

Thanks
Charles J

    Those products are contract only on 02. You can get them from other mobile phone companies but they have different names. I believe it is SPV on Orange and MDA on T- Mobile. I don't know if they allow pay as you go. Also the Networks heavily subsidise these products so they are restricted to that network. You can find programs on the net that will lift the restrictions but you use them at your own risk.

    You might want to ask on the XDA developers forum

    There is a sim-free XDA/Qtek 1020 Smartphone PDA for sale here for £135 which is the cheapest I've seen. Or a Qtek 2020 simfree / XDA 2 here for £449.95
