Virgin Lobster mobile phone with built in DAB and TV

Hi all,

This site http://www.freewareppc.com/medical/medical.shtml has software which runs on pocket pc's. Some of the software works on the lobster mobile phone and some of it doesn't. Guess you gotta try and see what happens.

Those of you interested in overclocking your mobile phones cpu from 200mhz to 240mhz can do so using a utility called omap clock. If you go any higher than 240mhz the phone will crash. Just reboot phone and it will be running at its default speed.

I would happily pay 19.99 for this phone BUT can I put my orange sim card in it?? Can somebody PM me with details of where I can find the unlocking software?

Also if I did this would I not get the TV? Or would I have to insert virgin sim card once per month (I would have to get the 29.99 one) in order to be able to watch TV??

virgin will unlock it for you when you top up £30 which equals tv for 6 months after the 90 day period. Then you can put in your sim and watch tv and as you said insert it once a month

I am on a Virgin PAYG and have managed to get a refurb so must be who you talk to. I think the 200mins comes as a card that can be put on any virgin sim?
I also had a conversation regarding TV licence the £5 a month is for that!

The £5 extra per month for telly subscription (past the free days)... is this automagically taken from your credit on the phone, or do you "request" it. Say for example you don't want TV for one month, do you have to disable some setting to avoid loosing your extra fiver?

I am also on virgin PAYG and getting this phone tomorrow,being a bit 'thick' when it comes to what a phone can do,can I download mp3 songs from my computer to this new phone just by plugging it up using a USB cable or do I have to install some new software???

Meh, it could look worse... I've got the SE K800i as well, and personally I find the phone heavy, too square, and unbalanced... but it does take a good pic. Much prefered my Moto Razr something or other, but it died (people hated that phone tho.. but suited me). Guess it's what you're wanting from a phone, there's no perfect one out there, but at the price this is ace just for the radio imho

Having just ordered one with all the help thanks folks, went through quidco and tribes, cost £40.90 inc postage, but I would like to know if it is going to take £5 a month from my card for TV too. Anyone?
