    Yes indeed, I bought an n90 when I was over there in 2005, it had just been launched worldwide. Because of the ability to haggle between shops there, I bought it for 500 Euro, when it should have been 700. Once she buys it SIM free, she'll be fine.

    I was thinking more along the lines of say a sony eriksson k800i?

    If she is in Bangkok, tell her to have a look in the MBK (Mah Boon Krong) Shopping Centre in Bangkok. On the 4th floor, there are literally hundreds of mobile phone shops/stalls. I have never see so many in one place anywhere on the planet.

    That's where I bought my n90, there were literally dozens of shops, some were just glorified stalls selling from Catalogues with no stock, and others were impressive. Best bit is that you can haggle. That shopping centre is huge though!
