O2 X1 Mobile Phone

Hey Everyone

Don't know if this is the right place to put it, but in today's Metro there is an advert stating that O2 are recalling the O2 X1 mobile phone as it has a potential fire hazard when charging. They will be putting a block on the phone from 27th (I think) March.

Just letting you know in case any of you are thinking of bidding for it on Ebay.

    Why?

    If anything you should be more eager to bid on them now! Since on average they go for around £40 and the replacement on offer is worth around £60

    Not bad :D

    Seems to be bit much of a hassle for a couple of quid (yesterday the X1 was going for £55 from a seller with 85% feedback). Just letting people know in case they are particularly looking for the X1 and get conned by an unscrupolous seller.
