    has anybody received the delivery of their phone yet?

    If so, please report on the condition of the phone, and what is included in the box?

    I just received mine, ordered last Thu I think.

    The phone condition is okay, still has the clear plastic screen protector but has obviously been handled a few times. I haven't powered it up yet so don't know if it will contain some interesting snapshots like my recent reconditioned 6680.

    The purple box also contained:

    1 charger with the small connector the N70 needs, looked unused
    1 USB/Pop Port cable to connect to the PC, looks unused
    1 set of white headphones/microphone, looks unused
    1 small bag which seems to contain a small black leather strap and a small lens cleaning cloth.
    1 Nokia N70 CD (I will just download latest copy of s/w from internet)
    1 Nokia N70 user guide.

    There was also a "3" pack with sim card and some bumf, plus the envelope & instructions for the £10 trade-in.

    Sadly, there was no memory card - either separate in a small holder as usual, or inside the phone. I guess I am not too miffed as the standard cards are too small to be of use to me, and as with the 6680 I will want a 1Gb one from Mobymemory so I can add some music, some s/w and have plenty free for photos, etc.

    According to the tracking system mine was delivered at 0821 this morning, but as I wasn't in it was taken back to the depot so I'll have to collect it myself later.

    AJP - is your phone locked ?

    it would be amazing if the n70's were to come unlocked!!!!!

    by the way, has anyone ever received either the N70/6680/6630 on the 3 network unlocked?

    Sadly, it comes up with Sim card invalid when loaded with an Orange sim.

    Having said that though, I fully intend to use it with the "3" sim anyway as it has a VERY generous amount of inclusive cross-net minutes, plus more texts than I can ever use, plus some downloads, etc. In a year's time I'll hope "3" are up to speed with unlocking these Simbian phones out of contract, and I'll see what other deals are around.

    3 will unlock the phone for a £15 fee when you phone them in the last month of your contract

    I received mine today as well.

    The phone looks brand spanking new.

    Unfortunately I did not receive any bag containing cleaning cloth. Also, I did not receive any memory card and the phone is locked.

    But the phone seems new to me.....
