Why don't the local operators start promoting WP7 more? Cant seem to get any on contract?

I was in Vodafone World over the weekend, and popped into the HTC store. When I asked about WP7 I was told "We aren't bringing any WP7 phones into SA". No Titan, no Radar.
Someone please prove me wrong.

Did the same, but 2 weeks ago - and was told they MIGHT bring in the Tango and Apollo - based phones in future.Originally Posted by Raithlin

I am getting a WP7 HTC Radar one of these days (a gift) - and I can't wait to lay hands on it. I also asked in my local Vodafone shop if they are getting Radar or Titan and was told that they'll import if a client request them to do so. That's a bit of a let down. Does anybody know who will be carrying it in SA if any?
I was told Nokia in SA are planning a high-profile launch of the Lumia line in early 2012 (Jan, Feb?). Also, MSFT are making progress in getting Bing for SA - required for various location-based services on WP7.
2 months too late for me. I've waited for 8 months longer than usual already. Pity - I really wanted to try out the WP7 experience.

The prods might be available before official local launch, though. Worth asking them?
Yeah - but according to the latest news articles on myBB, Nokia hasn't even made up its mind yet about SA.
I'm considering an Omnia 7. Any reason I shouldn't?

My opinion here is slightly biased - I own one.
All I can tell you is that it is a very good phone.
Though, if you can get old of the Focus S, go for that.
Otherwise, the Omnia 7 is the best of the current, available, bunch.

Titan with the wrong label... *tisk*
