    Nice little hack.

    Here's a good place to go to find any hints and tips and tweaks.

    I was with Meteor before I switched to 3 Ireland and did get the MMS working fine. Try using the settings from this post

    http://www.phonesonline.ie/Product.asp?ProductID=1026

    Sim Free at these two sites.

    Might sound very stupid asking this but any chance the reason its cheaper on phonesonline.ie is because it doesn't have all the stuff play.com have listed, that phonesonline don't have listed, in features etc, like play.com have twice the features and specs. Just a thought?

    Well the Play price seems crazy unless it's got some added extras... I've seen it at Expansys for circa €505 (Currently €555)

    When I first got my HD2 I was with Meteor. The phone should download all the settings for you but MMS wouldn't work for me. Just follow the instructions in the link above and you'll get it working. Thankfully with 3 everything works from the downloaded settings. :-)

    What is your source for that as I have spoken to an O2 store and they said they have no news on this phone.

    Apparently they may only come out to business customers to what I heard earlier.

    That being the case and if they don't bring the N900 out either at a reasonable price for existing customers, they will be at least two customers down as we'll be off to Vodafone.

    J_Dublin15... where'd you hear the business only rumour? Most of the hints are coming direct from the O2 forums but I didn't hear any indication that it was business only. It's very much a high end consumer handset, not specifically marketed at a business market (their pro line is though).

    Heard it from someone who left O2 a few days ago, they asked about that coming out soon as it would make them say and were told they would not be making HTC phones avaliable to consumers in the near future.

    I took that as meaning it would be business only as they mentioned the word consumers rather than not coming out at all.

    According to this the same happened with Voda in the UK:
