I use the LG Renoir with an Orange contract. I pay £35 a month and this gives me 600 minutes, unlimted texts and unlimted mobile broadband. I'd have to pay for what I download - like Games and Music - but apart from that, that's it, just £35 a month - the phone is "free".

You wouldn't pay extra for using wireless to connect to the internet (unless you went into a shop where you had to pay to use their service - like an internet shop) and as far as I'm aware, the GPS comes at no extra cost - apart from something called assisted GPS. I haven't actually used the GPS on the Renoir as I have a Tom Tom.

Hope this is of some use to you. The Renoir is a really good phone and one I am yet to be bored with. Considering I get bored of my phones VERY quickly, that's saying something

No worries. One of the great things about the phone is the dice game - you can play things like Snakes and Ladders. To shake the dice, you shake the phone. To throw the dice, you flick the phone - great stuff. Wireless is good, GPRS is good, photos are good. Oh yeah, you can make and recieve phone calls too...

It doesnt look like they want me to have this phone,it was supposed to arrive on tuesday but came on wednesday instead,to top it all off they sent me the wrong phone!
Has this happened to anybody else, i wont be able to get in touch with orange now till friday
As i ordered over the phone would i have to arrange for the incorrect phone to be collected or could i simply go to a orange shop and swap it?

You get 14 days to return it, don't worry.

So my renoir has finally arrived today, but for some reason it will randomly turn itself on and off! Could this have anything to do with the phone registration process as orange did say it would take 3 hours for full registration to be complete.
