Any Orange Nokia N90 deals out there?

Hey Guys,

I'm sorry if someone has already posted this, but as you can see I'm a "n00b" to this forum and have tried to use the search feature with no sucess. My contract with Orange is just about to expire. I currently have a Samsung D500, 120 minutes, 250 texts, £25 p/m (£30 w/insurance). I'm looking to upgrade. Having seen the Nokia N90, it clearly seems to be the front runner...

So I ask you three questions, if you could kindly answer them that is:

1) Is the Nokia N90 available on the Orange network? (If yes, please go to question 2, if not, please go to question 3)

2) Is there any deals, good ones, available on the Orange network for this phone, and where?

3) When (if at all possible) will Orange endorse this phone to their lucrative contract list?

4) Am I mad for going for the Nokia N90?! Is there a better phone out there that I don't know about (Bearing in mind, I have seen and reviewed the Nokia N91 and have slightly deterred away from it)?

Thank you for answering my questions, or quiz rather! :easter:

    hi Kizer,
    I'm also on Orange and as usual they take smetimes up to 6 months longer to come out with new models than the other networks. Apparently, it's because they install their own software for security purposes. None of the new Nokia models will be out for the next 3 months at least. I want the N80 so I can pick up my emails on the move, and there's no blackberry on Orange.
    Hope this helps,
    Polly

    Thanks a lot to all who replied!

    I'll take all that information into consideration and decide what to do next.

    Again, my thanks,

    Kizer.

    New News:
    Just to conclude on this topic for future reference, I just phoned the Orange Upgrade line, asked the representative if the Nokia N90 will be coming to Orange and when?

    He told me it isn't, but the Nokia N91 is coming to Orange within the first few weeks of May.
