Orbit 2 is NOT launching tomorrow

Some sources are indicating that the Orbit 2 launches tomorrow, but this is not the case. O2 contacts today indicated the Orbit 2 will launch to the corporate market on Monday the 4th of February and to the consumer the week after...

Any idea on the cause of the delay?

Re: Orbit 2 is NOT launching tomorrow

Might just be stocking issues if they have only recently signed off the device and ROM build....

This is speculation btw, I have no insight into the goings on at O2!

Re: Orbit 2 is NOT launching tomorrow

Not sure really. I only ordered it yesterday afternoon. At 1st they said it wasnt out yet, then after a while the girl found 38 in stock and put me through to retentions. It was £90 and i have got the copliot satnav kit aswell, i wasnt expecting to get that.
