Has anybody had any experience of this, or does anybody know any more information?

We've seen it on CeBIT, and were pretty impressed by the professionality of the finnish guys. They sure know what they talk about.

However, they are more targeted towards corporate users, and their products are a tad pricey for our average users.

But this phone is soon to be on O2 and Vodafone in the UK? Assuming like every other phone it will be subsidised by the operator, that makes this quite an attractive consumer item?

[lbendlin]

Not so sure about that. I think it will still be more expensive than, let's say, a Mio 701A.

The Benefon is not provider locked, you can use it with any network.

I'll keep my eye on it, then.

Here's the pages detailing it's intro to O2 and Vodafone:
