Well seeing as O2 commisioned Syntes to design the handset for them it's unlikely to go to any other carriers.
Picked one of these up last week, it's an ok phone but not worth the £300 ($600) prepay price. Or $399ish on a $50 12/18 month contract (£25 a month).
Build quality and design is great, menu system is a bit 'laggy', stereo speakers aren't really all that loud and the inability to change the internal menus background from blue is annoying. T9 works like it does on Sony Ericssons, though the space key is placed like Nokias.
The external LED display is great though and a lot of thought has gone into the packaging and bundled accessories (headphone splitter, dock ect).
