    Just had mine delivered, looks fine, really happy.

    Made a bit of an error of judgement - forgot to order sim card (oops.)

    Please does anyone know if I can use any sim card from retailer and will this work with the TV function?

    Without a sim card it doesn't seem to let me watch TV but I can listen to the radio - is this right? It just asks me to update my subscription to checkout this channel.

    HELP!

    For those of you who missed out on getting one of these from Virgin they are still in stock at Empire Stores:

    Grab them while you can, they're sure to sell very quickly ;)

    You need a Virgin mobile sim to allow the phone to download the electronic-license file to allow you to watch the TV. For 3 months it's free (BBC1 longer) and after that it is only free if you have a Virgin contract SIM else you pay £5 a month on pay-as-you-go.
