T-Mobile + Co-Pilot Bundle

morning all,
i was in processes of ordering my MDA compact III. when i thought i just check the price of the phone + web walk + co-pilot. Came up with something interesting. Too make more interesting i have attached two screen shots, wonder who can work out what i am trying to get at. Enjoy
This should be fun hehehehe
Snoop,
p.s. i ordered my this morning (@1am )..without copilot. hopefully here by tuesday...wwwwhoooo cant wait

Where's my SatNav software? Just upgraded to Orbit...it should be here?!?!

Hi,
Am I missing something here? Just upgraded to xda Orbit. All working lovely jubbley.
But....no SatNav software (CoPilot I think should come free with it). There's nothing in the box except the usual stuff....unless I'm being really stupid and it's right under my nose?!?! Where should it be??!?!
Anyone? Or am I not entitled to the free software as I am not a new customer?
Any light shed most appreciated.

I think o2 only gave away Copilot on the higher tariffs, otherwise you had to pay for it.

Possibly, but I'm on £50 / month.
Plus it says nothing about it on the website: https://shop.o2.co.uk/phone/O2/Xda_Orbit_-_Sat_Nav
Have they just forgotten to put it in the pack? Should it come in the normal box or in a seperate box?
Anyone know?

Its not preinstalled on your memory card is it?

No....but have found an answer.
Looked on another forum and saw posts detailing NO CoPilot software unless you order online.
I am an o2 select customer (as most are I think anyway....) so used the phone to upgrade.
Well unhappy about this, but then again, I love a good argument (esp with o2), so watch this space, will have my free software by the end of tomorrow if it kills me!!
Thanks for any help given, and if anyone has any ideas about how to get this freakin software it would be most appreciated.

They send it out separately so may arrive in the next few days. But if I was you I'd ring them up and find out for sure. On a £50 tariff you're definitely entitled to a free Copilt. The Copilot pack should include memory card, CD, car charger and car mount.

Great, thanks for the heads up! Think I will go easy on them at first then!!

Not quite true. Online gave away copilot on any tariff, but have now changed to the same as the high street where you get it free on the higher tariffs only. Ring them and get it sorted.

I upgraded over the phone but am an online customer (billing done online as opposed to paper statements sent thru the post each month). I got everything bundled into 1 box, should be 1 o2 branded box for the phone and a separate one for the Co-Pilot stuff.

Spoke to o2 this morning. Apparently I am eligible for the CoPilot, however o2 had neglected to order it....no surprise really.
Anyway, its on order and will be with me shortly...again, apparently....!!
Will keep you update,
Thanks.

Many thanks...due to this topic I called O2 and suprise suprise they found the Co-Pilot software in the store I should have got free. Went straight down and got it....thanks for the info.
Eoin

Had a right nightmare upgrading mine with O2 over the phone mate.
After the usual yes you will give me what I want conversation I got em to agree to including the copilot and the handset for free.
Phone turns up...... no copilot anywere.
Call to customer services, "no notes saying its included sir"
"well I suggest you listen to the call" I said. "I wanna speak to the bloke who upgraded me (insert time date and name of operator) "
He calls me back, makes his appologies and explains he's sending it out today. Turns up next day, on a MINI SD Card!!!!!
Called back (again) explaining the problem, rather miffed by now. "only one I can order " he says
(Me banging my head against the wall icon)
Finally get him to send me a Free Micro SD card to put it on, principle really as I'd already ordered a 2GB one
Just shows how sometimes the operators haven't got a clue! rant over LOL

Everyone be calm...I have received my CoPilot.....everyone can now relax!!
Only joking, but yes it is here.
So, in summary, o2 need a hefty nudge now and again. But we all knew that, didn't we?! If you ain't got your free software, a few well placed calls will do the trick.
End of thread methinks. Thanks for your help.

[UK] Free wireless keyboard for July buyers...

Just saw this offer. Looks like you buy (or bought) a Xoom in July, Moto will give you a kbd and mouse.
http://www.pcr-online.biz/news/36622/Free-wireless-keyboard-and-mouse-for-Motorola-Xoom-owners

I bought mine in July, but it seems this deal is for those in the UK ONLY.

Updated the Subject to reflect that.

Does anybody happen to have a note of the UK Xoom's original UAString?
I've already applied the US image to mine, and so the site doesn't register my Xoom as bought in the UK anymore.

Did anyone received it yet?

For those UK Xoom owners running the US firmware that wish to apply for the free keyboard/mouse but can't due to the web site not recognising your Xoom, try the following..
Install 'Dolphin Browser HD' from the Android Market, run it, then browse to this post and copy the text below (without quotes).
"Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 3.0; en-gb; Xoom Build/EVRSU_U5_0.48.0) AppleWebKit/534.13 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Safari/534.13"
Now hit the menu/settings button at the bottom then choose 'More' then 'Settings' then 'Dolphin settings' and finally 'User Agent'.
From the list choose 'Custom' then paste the text you copied earlier into the box. Hit OK then the back button to close the settings window.
If that all went well you should now be able to browse to http://www.motorolaxoompromotion.co.uk/ and fill the form in.

recieved mine today really nice quality , however you do need 3.1 in oder to use the mouse as it is recocgnised but does not connect on 3.01 ironic really as you can only use half the promotion on a 3G version.
keybpoard has some nice shortcuts and does feel nice when typed on its also full size though no numpad obvoiusly.
fantastic for free i say.
btw it took 3 days from submitting the reciept to recieving it very very quick
does turn the xoom into a kind a laptop which is cool the kb is very easy to type on and the mouse is very quick and responsive but i stress it cannot be used on the stock 3.01 (the mouse)
one day when we recieve the official update officially everything will be perfect

well I bought mine in march, didnt know the offer was only for xooms bought in July until I had filled in the form (using FF with a modded string)
Had an email yesterday saying it had been dispatched. missed delivery today ;-)
going to pick it up tomorrow

guys i have a xoom which i bought and it looks like uk version, when i try to enter the serial number at the website, which opens normally without anything, it gives me an error with the serial number, tried writting it in capital same thing, what could be wrong
if the website opens normally without any issues, and i have no updates after 3.0.1 i guess its uk for sure right

thanks , gave it a go even though i got mine in April (-;
fingers crossed

Yup, given mine a go even though I pre-ordered it. I think it stinks quite frankly that for a device like this, the remit for free accessories based on orders is only for the month of July. Considering the bloody device has only been out in the UK since April, it's not that large a period to expand to!
I'm going to kick up one hell of a fuss. I don't normally care...it's one thing to expect to pay over the odds for early adoption, it's yet another to understand a price decrease apst a certain date, but to offer incentives at this level for people to purchase Xooms for this one month I believe, stinks!

..I think that's the intention but it does say somewhere that there will be 'limited' numbers of keyboards available from buyers before July?
I've registered, although the only proof of purchase I could find from PCWorld was an email confirmation of my order - not sure if that's OK or not?
We'll have to wait and see what happens??
Does anyone know how you get to find out whether you are going to receive the free keyboard or not?

you'll get a confirmation from brightspot on the email you registered with...
Funnily enough.. I bought mine on the 29th June... I scanned my receipt and photoshopped the date to the 1st of july...
Dispatched today, should receive it tomorrow!
I'm going to hell arent i!!!

Yeah I got the conformation email, but I guess that's automated, just wondered what happens next? Did you get an email saying keyboard was despatched? and if so how long after the conformation email did it take??
Cheers
Ody

I have my confirmation email on 15th but nothing so far, I bought my zoom on 22/04.
Fingers crossed

I had an email saying there was no date on my proof of purchase. Emailed back with a better image, and had the following reply
Dear UKC101
Thanks for sending us a further image of your proof of purchase!
We can now confirm that your details will be added to our shipping list for a free Wireless Keyboard and Mouse - you should recieve separate confirmation of this shortly.
Thanks for your support and we hope you enjoy your XOOM device and free accessories!
Best Regards,
Motorola XOOM Promotion Support Team
That was on 20th but heard nothing since. Fingers crossed i get confirmation of dispatch soon

So how long was it between getting the registration conformation email and an email saying the keyboard was dispatched. Like so many others I have registered and been sent an email, but are waiting for something to say we will/won't be getting a free keyboard??

I'm guessing that if you don't get an "added to shipping list" email a day or so after registering, then you are probably not going to get one. I was a bit dim, not to paintshop pro the PC world email notification date, I guess to honest/stupid to think of this. :-(
It's awkward with ordering off PC world as I don't remember getting a proper receipt? Just a few emails and a packing invoice and that's it.
At least I haven't received an email requesting another receipt, although having pre-ordered in April, my registration might have just been deemed void?
Oh well if don't get a freebie, I'll just have to buy one!

Thanks for this mate! Will save me, and many others, a lot of money . Owe you one.

If I'm looking at the right thing, it's currently offering some rubbish called Green Farm.
Looks like farmville or something, I'll check again in couple of hours.

I don't know, they offered Let's golf 2 HD on friday and Order & Chaos today. One more free game tommorow.

OP said every two hours, what did I miss?
Is it one free game for two hours of each day over the weekend?
I'v visited the site and can't find these free games you mention.

Ok, so what time do those two hours begin?

Last time this happened we got Brothers in Arms 2 which was compatible.
Someone posted the link for the apk on gameloft's site somewhere during that

real boxing update

I posted this at nvidia so sorry if you already read it. I got confirmation from the devs that an update will be coming soon that includes multiplayer. Maybe we could get a bracket together for a tournament if anybody is interested.

They need to update the price. On the Shield store it shows as .99cents. When you go to the play store to buy, you get the long hose $3.99
