If you own one, I'm curious what CDA number you have.

(Open flip, Edit, System Information, 3rd Page under CDA).

Mine is CDA162004/29 , and I'm wondering if that is the standard one
sold in Australia, or what other CDA numbers are sold here.

(The CDA number affects what firmware upgrades you can download and
apparently also influences whether you have carrier branding or not).

Thanks.

Thanks for the confirmation.

With that CDA, you can't upgrade to the latest firmware online (R4B) and
are stuck on R3A until SE decide to approve the R4B for that particular CDA.

Quite annoying, but I'm still trying to work out the reasons behind that
particular decision (IE, do Telstra, Optus and Voda have to test it on
their network first?)
