No UK release Orange SPV M650

Lots of us have been waiting patiently to see the Orange SPV M650 finally released in the UK. We certainly get a lot of questions and feedback about the device. However, today we had terrible news from our source close to Orange. Apparently the SPV M650 will NOT be released in the UK as there is ‘Too Much Overlap’ with the flagship SPV M700.

This seems like a strange turn of events given that the M650 and the M700 are available from Orange in France. Do they not consider that the same overlap in technology to be an issue in the other European markets? We are seeking confirmation from Orange UK on this.
