Sony Ericsson's K800

Supercell

Yep I agree totally about the uk guy, I looked at his history, he's bought get rich quick schemes and had others buy the same from him too, have reported it to ebay. There is no quick way of getting these bar faking being a mobile phone reviewer it seems!!

Regarding Paypal, never had problems with them, suppose it all in the way you deal with em (be prepared!!)

drdre

longfield anymore info on your phone yet.did you contact the seller

Supercell

He emailed me to thank for payment , I have a tracking site to check the status of my order etc, but I'll just have to wait for them to be released.

The english guy selling them on ebay is a scam (he's sold junk and get rich schemes only in the past) so not touching that with a bargepole.

I imagine some Jap/Chinese or Korean sellers will be the first to offer them for real on ebay, dunno wheter phones from those markets will work here though ?

has the german seller given you a tracking number already:rolleyes: , so does that mean the phone is sent to you already.
also the chinese etc phones can be used in ireland perfectly but i donot think there will be any warranty on them for europe.its only asian warranty.

Nope, its a tracking site, ie shows wheter its been packaged/dispatched and once dispatched there is a field for the tracking number which obviously isnt generated yet.

Looks the business!, these are going to be as rare as hen's teeth when the come out such is the interest in them..hope i'm not waiting until xmas!
Must say the camera picture quality is a vast improvement on the K750i if the shots posted are anything to go by.

pic quality on them was great alright - watching the auto focus kick in was very impressive

what networks are they running on? or will i have to buy sim free?

drdre

anyone know of prices.

You can only guess it's gonna be around the pricing of the K750i when it originally came out or the W800i as that came out ... maybe a bit more? It's a premium phone with 3.2MP camera ...

that seems high, keep us updated if you find a cheaper source.if expansys is selling it that high then i hope that ebay seller sticks to his word by selling it around 450 mark as people would have paid him.;)

Pixmania.com is charging €479 for it; it is due to be available 2 days after Expansys gets it.
