Motoroal V525 on T-mobile???

[hootsman86]

Looking for the V525 on T-Mobile but only see it available to Voda. Anyone know if it's going to be avilable on T-mobile soon?

The V525 is Vodafone exclusive, and the V500 is Orange exclusive.
The two phones are identical other than the colour and networks, they just named them differently for each network to distinguish between them.
T-Mobile has the V300 instead as it's exclusive phone, which is like a scaled down version with a slightly lower quality camera/screen etc.
And unlocking is almost impossible at present, but it may happen eventually.

Can be done with a log off the Motorola server...

But AFAIK all phones (V525-Voda, V500-Orange, V300-TMob) have their firmware totally buggered/personalised by the respective networks (like the T610).

It's definitely the phone I want so I'lll hold off and see what happens. Many thanks.
