    My advice is use the Orange UK 8900 software, I'm using a locked O2 8900 just ensure you delete the vendor file before you install the O.S.

    The Orange UK software in my personal opinion is the best one. I allways install offical OS on release and was most impressed with the Orange U.K version.

    It's fast relaible and a good all around O.S, you will find most O.S builds have its pro's and con's.

    If you stick to official OS releases it doesn't really matter which carrier's OS you use.

    As c_stanley correctly pointed out tho, if the OS you choose to download and install is not from your own carrier, you'll need to delete the vendor XML file.

    i've never had any major problems with beta OS's

    do what you feel comfortable with, there's in reality no difference between carrier variants of the firmwares except for sometimes slightly different options, the core programming will remain the same if the version numbers are the same
