MessageI'm pretty sure this isn't an option with Virgin mobile. With my experience of making enquiries about joining Virgin and, explaining that I couldn't sign up straight away and buy one of their selected phones due to the talx issue. They seem to understand what I meant when I mentioned the talx software. HOwever, if they did sell any phones with talx put on them, they'd have said I've no doubt. I think only Vodafone are the ones that offer talx ready phones. Orange seem clued up on with the talx software, having spoken about it with their customer service on several occasions and, at the Orange shop. If you wanna go with one particular network and don't want vodafone, you'll have to buy talx separately from your phone.

I'm thinking of getting a phone with Talx and I'm not sure what the best deal is at the moment. Is it better to buy Talx separately, or can you get it as part of a package with a network? James
