From: Al Paca on 19 Apr 2008 13:14 If you don't know what PUFL is then it probably isn't worth you reading further. A few people on other forums have reported success in upgrading their PUFL phones in-store, many for free phones. Allegedly there is no change to the 'contract'. I haven't been brave enough to try it with mine yet.

The OP might have already been there, and come here? :-) -- Adrian C

I got a K800i last time and a very thin Samsung this year. My daughter has just got a Samsung with a 3M camera. In other o2 stores, I've been told that no upgrade is allowed on PUFFL. regards, Ian |
