While many of your additions are good and welcome, a few of them are nothing more than advertisements, linking directly to Vodafone press releases or Sony's online store. These are being removed. Just letting you know. --Golbez 21:43, Nov 16, 2004 (UTC)

You could change them directly to the official website, because I couldn't find them ( only to the Sony online store). But a new is a new, not an advertisement. If Vodafone is selling the first UMTS phones, at popular prices (at similar prices than 2.5G previous phones), it's a news, independently it comes from it (the first is the news' protagonist). In any case, I am thinking, it would be a good idea to create a wiki about electronics, best prices (if you find it cheaper, you can include the link using the wiki) and so on, in the future. This wouldn't be advertisment, it would be aimed by consumer associations and comparations. Some ideas... ;)

The thing is, Vodafone's Christmas lineup, and linking to their press release, isn't heavily encyclopaedic. It might belong in a list of phones, but I don't really see it as belonging in the article, unless you can somehow integrate it in. Just being a little rabid about ads, that's all. :) Thanks for not taking it too hard. Wikipedia does not endorse specific products, and to link to a storefront for them is to both endorse the product and the store. --Golbez 19:29, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
