Orange Branded Samsung i600 Crashes When Changing Ringtones?

"A while ago we unboxed the Samsung SGH-i600 and published this video of the device. Since then the i600 has been released on the Orange network and a number of our regular visitors have been asking if there is any difference between the straight Samsung and the Orange branded version of the i600. Both devices have exactly the same hardware but there are some software differences as, once again, Orange removed MSN messenger from their version and branded the homescreen and icons. However there seems to be a more worrying problem with the Orange version. As you'll see in the video below, there are some stablility issues. One of the first things I tried on the i600 is to change the ringtone but simply doing this is enough to crash the device and all one can do is remove the battery as it wont even respond to the power button."

Matt has come across an interesting bug with the Orange branded Samsung i600 device. Fresh out of the box, the device will crash if you try and change the ringtone. 8O I haven't had any problems with the BlackJack, so this is either something specific to his device, or something that Orange has done by accident. Anyone here have the Orange device and can confirm this problem with their device?
