Sorry (I'm a nOOb) but could someone please clarify something for me...

My last phone was an Orange SPV C600, which I have always been under the impression was the HTC Tornado. In comfirmation, according to the main screen link to this forum the SPV C600 is indeed another name for the Tornado.

However, the picture for the link doesn't match my phone, and according to Wikipedia the SPV C600 was actually the Faraday (Eh?): Orange SPV (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPV_C500)

BUT sometimes when I switch my phone on I get a multicoloured screen which seems to exactly match that in the link from the step by step upgrade to WM6 thread (including "Tornado"): Kar Hoe's Blog (http://karhoe.byethost33.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21)

I know Dopod is owned (or whatever) by HTC, is this just different branding of the same phone and both names are regional?

Have I got something based on the Tornado but is actually a Faraday?

Is the Faraday something totally different and Wikipedia is incorrect?

It's not really important but I'd like to know! ;)

Actually, I believe the Faraday is basically a Tornado without Wi-Fi, and both use Tornado ROMs.
