Free Samsung DVD-511

Just thought you`d all like to know that I found a free Samsung DVD-511.
You have to sign up for a BTCellnet mobile at £15/month for 12 months, but it seems pretty good to me.
Check it out at:
www.carphonewarehouse.com/skyoctober

only problem is that they are quoting 4 to 8 weeks delivery.......

Apparantly you can select regions with a 4 in 1 remote control, alternatively try this site:

Is the phone deal any good, Chas ? My Vodafone contract is due to expire in a month...are there free calls included ?

And how decent is the Samsung 511 ? Reports from current owners particularly welcomed....

(Just thinking one for the bedroom would be pretty cool - if the 511 is any cop might see me sleeping with my Encore 450 !!!!)

Especially at skipping??

You need to use the "Double Cold Start" hack from 709online.com every time you wanna play a non R2 disc.

However, read into your phone contract first..there are some really good deals on phones available, and you can buy the player itself for under £199.

If however, you are due to change your phone, then it`s a decent enough deal.. but check the "minutes" cost of the mobile!!
(usually inclusive minutes are off-peak only)

Now, if ya want a sub-£200 player with real quality, I would just like to say.....


AIWA 370 ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!

After waiting 9 weeks i still have not received the samsung dvd 511,
The mobile phone had a software fault it displayed the message uk-10 rather than uk cellnet, so far i find the service at car phone warehouse crap,
I can only hope that the samsung dvd 511 is worth the wait.
