Does anyone know if these phones are available on 3 network?

I'm at the end of a 12 month contract with a SE W850i.

[I checked out their website and I'm not too keen on the phones on offer there and they only seem to offer 18 month contracts. Hoping that if I threaten to cancel and move to another network they'll offer me better than what's on their website.]

The 6500 Classic is a 3G phone, as is the 6500 slide.

No worries, it's confusing with the 6500 Classic as it doesn't have a front camera nor can it make video calls.

I spoke to 3 and they have said the K850i is/was due out on November 19th!!!

They are validating the software etc before it becomes available, and they said to keep checking the website, so it must be available pretty soon.

They have a dummy model for the K850i in the Window at Manchester Market Street which USUALLY means any day now....

The 6300 & 6500 were both featured as "Coming Soon" in the October brochure. Still no sign, yet.

Would they stock the 6300? I thought 3 only dealt in 3G handsets?

Whoopsie, absolutely correct there. NOT the 6300.

I meant both the 6500 Slide & 6500 Classic (It's Nokia's fault, having 2 fairly different handsets with the same flipping model number ).

What makes it worse is that the phones are massively different too!
