    Its the Optimus One, looks better on paper in most respects but the screen is 256k colours rather than 16m.

    !!!!!!

    Do they give her the option to refuse and instead wait for the Apollo to come back in stock? Or is the Apollo a non-existent item now :/

    I want an Apollo argh!

    Dunno mate, twas my GF dealing with this as its for her son. They did say she can just send the LG back if they don't like it, and they'd try to find something else.

    If anyone is interested here is a gel case for LG phone: http://www.amazon.co.uk/OPTIMUS-P500-CASE-COVER-SHELL/dp/B004ANPHX8/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1309272525&sr=8-3

    Battery is actually better on the LG than the Samsung, for everything except calling on 2G. I've used tmobile for 18 months and we were rarely without a 3G signal, so it should be the same for you as you don't live that far away. Specs for the 2 phones here:

    Samsung Apollo
    LG Optimus One

    EDIT: Actually, is that the Apollo? There seems to be an I5800 and an I5801, both of which I have heard called the Apollo? Saying that the specs look the same I think? I dunno!

    Yep, the i5800/i5801 is the Apollo, is also the Samsung Galaxy 3.

    They just called me to offer the optimus one, but I was distracted by various children, and said could I wait a few days and see if they get the apollo back in stock. They'll get back to me in a few days, or I can call if I decide on the optimus, I suppose.

    I ordered 5.30pm Friday - what time did your Friday orders happen? Just want to know if my new toy is coming today or tomorrow.

    Turned up today. I'd had a T-mobile email overnight saying welcome to your phone, which is why I asked the question.

    Charging now - am looking forward to playing.
