Hi, Voda aren't, but you can get it through the CPW which do contracts with various networks and also do phones the networks themselves don't. Note however that CPW have a non-returns policy, or so I was just advised by a friend who tried just that a few hours ago. _______________________________________ Have a pleasant day, Kind Regards and Best Wishes, Hussein.

I think Voda are not doing the N86 any more.

During my enquiries i've been told the n86 is the most tactile phone and I could have talks put on for free if I got it through vodaphone. My other option is to go for mobile Speak which would cost about £200. I'm not in paid employment so it is a lot of money whichever way I go. Maybe I should get the phone and download the free trial of TALKS as I haven't heard so much about Mobile Speek as TALKS seems to be the most popular.
