Windows Phone 7 Phones on CellC

Since there are a few peeps in the know from CellC lurking around here (including the CEO ), maybe you can help me.

I am looking at a Windows Phone 7 device, but I can't get a decent phone from the other networks. Vodacom has got the Trophy but that the is cheapest and worst of them all.

When will CellC be getting one of these devices? If you can get me a device I will port to you guys in no time!

There are a few you can bring in. HTC has got a few, Samsung has got one, LG and Dell. The choice is yours.

Any feedback will be super!

Thanks

What about HTC Desire HD on Cellc?

The 7 mozart is supposed to be available here, although I haven't seen it in any of the shops. Were also appearantly getting the 7 Pro.
I've hear that the samsung focus is quite nice. I've got the HD 7 and i really like it.
I hope the providers here will wake up soon and start offering more WP7 devices, and advertise them a bit better.

The Mozart is listed @ MTN but you can't get it from them since it hasn't passed the network test. That leaves you to buy the phone cash -which I don't have.

The Pro hasn't been launched in SA yet, so nothing from anybody on that.

So Cell C... are you up for the challenge?

Windows Phone 7 looks very promising, but MS really need to come with an update already. Cut and paste is a must. Also this issue would kill me: (Engadget WP7 review)

"In day to day use, the lack of multitasking proved to be an even bigger annoyance than we expected. Not only is there no third-party support for the function, but if you lock your screen while you’re in a third-party app (say, Twitter), the software must reload when you unlock! This can be especially annoying when you’re playing a game which has a substantial load time (more on that below). It doesn’t freeze your state, so you have to reload the app and your saved game all over again. It’s not just bad — it’s nearly unforgivable."
