Unhappy [Q] Where to buy unlocked Omnia 7 without contract?

Does someone know where i could buy a unlocked Omnia 7 without contract in europe? I searched and didn't find a single shop that had some on stock.

It's listed with a provisional price on Clove but with no release date I am afraid.

You can buy it PAYG on three (£445 I think) and then pay £15 to unlock, so £460 sim free from 3.

I don't see the Omnia 7 when i select PAYG on the three uk online shop. May this option is only if u buy it directly from a three store? And where i can get the phone unlocked for £15, direct from three?

I found a locked Omnia 7 on eBay but not shure if there is a trusted unlock online service.

Not sure about online, but certainly in store they had is as PAYG as well as contract. And the guy in store said you just call 3 themselves and they will give you the code for about £15.

So there not operating the same 12 month no unlock policy as O2 are then?

Does it leave the device with much three branding?

I bought my Omnis on t mobile and have had it unlocked and am now using it on Vodafone as this is my preferred network as they have much better 3g coverage in my area. Aside from a t-mobile marking on the battery cover there is no branding on the phone at all.
