Umm......no you didn't!  I just picked up my Genie yesterday from
Vodafone...$99 on a 30/month plan.  Telstra was charging $435 for the T18s
on a $30/month plan, Voda charged $349 on a $30/month, so I didn't bother
checking with Optus.

D'oh!

Oh well, the Genie's still pretty kick ass anyway.

BTW, I heard something about a recall on the T18s...anyone know if this is
true or why?  Vodafone seem to be taking a hell of a long time getting it
in store...

Cheers,

Ian.
