    Can't buy from the meteor store using a phone browser which is damned inconsiderate of them:'( would give me a better chance of getting the next one in stock with the yellow phone :-)
    When you click how to buy it gives you the option to buy on full site which you can view on your phone.

    Any way around the high unlock costs?

    Nope. Unless you are on Meteor and have spent enough to allow you to unlock a few IMEIs. Lumia's have always been dear to unlock manually.

    Same.

    i look forward to experiencing windows mobile, being a pc head and hating 8.1. i dont know if i will struggle with 8 till 10 is released. Im more interested in the phone to see how good it really is when it costs 100+ in some countries

    Humorously, given its name, I cannot find any evidence as to whether the tablet can be coerced into running Linux.

    Each item was priced at the full amount in the email I received hope they don't try and grab the full amount.

    Same. They just sent out individual shipping emails with separate pricing. Nothing to worry about. :)

    That's the order confirmation and not the shipping email I presume.

    Same for me. I got confirmation of both orders last night. The bloody hassle of sending it back!

    I accepted the delivery so they are sending me out a Jiffy bag with a prepaid label. Hope it fits in the packet!

    My bundle deal is showing as Out for Delivery as of 8.26am this morning, yay! :D Super fast service from Meteor in fairness to them.

    Did you get an email to confirm that or do you have a meteor account you can check this on?? I haven't received confirmation the first one has been dispatched yet.

    Maybe they cancelled it on time but the transaction already went through on your card? Best to email or ring them and ask whats up.

    Yes.

    I ordered mine around 1pm so it won't ship till tonight so at present just the one email. It's the only amount visa secure approved so they cannot take more anyway.
