Yes, you read it correctly. Devicewire.com are offering the HTC Legend, Desire and HD Mini free of charge with a Vodafone contract!
HTC HD Mini, Legend and Desire
Earlier in the week we mentioned that devicewire were taking pre-orders for the devices sim free. Now if you cant or wont buy the unlocked version you can get the devices for as little as £25.00 per month on a 24 month Vodafone contract. With 300 minutes, unlimited sms and email whether you like a two year contract or not it looks like a real bargain if you ask me.
I certainly could handle this sort of deal. With more and more of us making less phone calls and relying more on email and instant messaging this package looks rather attractive.
Pop on over to devicewire and take a butchers!

Do you believe in ghosts? We do, but some people are making fun of this serious stuff and are making apps like this:
… and some other people are making photos with this app and sending them to press and, amazingly, some press believes that these photos are real…

If you were interested in seeing the photos of the BlackBerry slider we published yesterday then here is another. This time its sitting beside the BlackBerry Curve 8900 and you can see the similarities. Initially i asked could this new slider be the next BlackBerry Storm? Looking at the photo I would say its more likely to be in the ‘Bold’ range judging by the keys on the keyboard but we will have to wait and see.
Remember this has not been confirmed by RIM so nothing is for sure. Once thing I have spotted on the device that is different to the current BlackBerry smart phones is that the four buttons under the screen (send, end, BB and back) are all one piece of plastic. On the other devices each button is separate. Could these be touch sensitive?
Anyway, we will let you know if we find any other news on this BlackBerry as I have a feeling it will be big when and if it hits the market.

You may well have seen this morning that Skype and Nokia have announced Skype for Symbian, which allows over 200 million Nokia smartphone users access to the service. Users can now use Skype on the move, over either a WiFi or mobile data connection (GPRS, EDGE, 3G) and it’s downloadable for free from the Ovi Store, Nokia’s one-stop shop for mobile content.
Lee Williams, the Executive Director of the Symbian Foundation, has just offered further comment on this announcement:
Following the last press release whereby O2 decided to rip off their customers they have pulled a bit of a U-turn following a backlash from dealers.
O2 was to do away with their 18 month and 36 month SME contracts by the end of March to include a 12 month fixed line promotion with all 24 month deals. Now, following a upset from the dealers, O2 has reversed its decision and will retain all its original packages at least until the end of the year.
The new tariffs will be available through it’s business gateway.

I spotted this today over at bbleaks.com
While the pictures are not confirmed, as RIM have made no announcements they do look pretty real. If this is close to what RIMs first BlackBerry slider will look like them I am certainly excited about it.
This could be what BlackBerry users have been waiting for. A big touch screen with the added bonus of the hardware QWERTY that so many millions of BlackBerry users love, including me.
Could this new slider also be launched with OS version 6.0 and maybe the forthcoming new BlackBerry web browser?
I would love to hear your thoughts on the forum. Please head on over and lets discuss!
If you could not spare the cash to buy the Motorola Milestone SIM free when it was released here in December by eXpansys then today is your lucky day.
If you nip down to The Carphone Warehouse you can snap up a Milestone for as little as nothing on 12, 18 & 24 month contracts with Orange, Vodafone and T-Mobile.
Rather surprised to see this handset go from being an exclusive with one retailer to being sold just about everywhere in such a short space of time!
