Just curious, how much of the phone's software is Vodaphone branded?
Start up logo, GPRS, etc.

Also, are you happy with the phone? Any problems worth mentioning?

I have just returned my V600 due to problems, granted it wasn't Vodafone
branded.
It had a habit of switching itself off, even during calls. iTap was
incredibly slow and it only has sim only sms storage. Other than these few
probs i noticed the phone is well built has good receive and looks great !

Have heard the V600 on Vodafone have their crappy LIVE software on them.
They are or were available on Vodafone Germany. So if you have any
experience of mobile with the Vodafone live software then you'll have and
idea on the software in a V600 on Vodafone.

No, not very familiar with the carrier Vodaphone. I'm in the States,
and a lot of people are selling Vodaphone V600s over here. I can see
the Vodaphone "Live" banner down by the right softkey. Wonder if there
is a lot of other Vodaphone stuff in the software?

They will probably be totally customised by Vodafone, i.e icons, menu,
colours will all be different from an unbranded V600. Normally in the red
vodafone colour also.
