British phone retailer Mobile Phones Direct is offering the sexy new Samsung Galaxy S III for just 49 GBP to users willing to commit on a two-year 26 GBP/month contract with Vodafone. That’s a pre-order deal — since Galaxy S III is still not available — and it’s pretty sweet… or so we think. Best of all, both white and blue versions of the device are available at the retailer. As for what’s included for 26 GBP per month, that money gets you 300 calling minutes, unlimited texts as well … Read more

New Vodafone SIM lets parents spy on kids, disable texting, and more
Vodafone UK is launching a new SIM card today aimed at parents looking to control their child’s mobile usage. The SIM, which uses software that runs on Vodafone’s servers called “the Bemilo system”, will let parents disable texting, choose which hours the phone can connect to the network, and it will even let parents read text messages. Since the software in question runs on the network, that means it’s tied to the SIM card itself, so children can’t escape their parents, unless they save up enough money to buy a … Read more

UK: Vodafone, O2 to sell the next Samsung Galaxy
And the first mobile operators in the UK to unveil plans to offer the soon-to-be-announced Samsung Galaxy S III are… O2 and Vodafone.

Vodafone UK users with the Samsung Galaxy S II should get their Ice Cream Sandwich update later today! Although the date (April 12th) could change, something tells us the Big Red carrier doesn’t want to play too much with its user base’s nerves – and this is especially true since pretty much all other British carriers launched ICS updates for their Galaxy S II devices. The new firmware version will be available both over-the-air and using Sammy’s rather not popular KIES software. So if you don’t see it yet while … Read more
