    I ordered mine at 2pm and I just chose the Airsure option. I was pleasantly suprised when it arrived on Mon morning - definitely quicker than DHL and cheaper - doesn't make sense really.

    Who did you place your order with?

    Im tempted to throw in an order for the K750i on mobilerepair.de this evening if they are decent and quick.

    Where would you reccomend ordering it from?

    Mobilerepair.de seem to have decent prices although they dont really say much information about it. Is it fully sim-free or does it come branded etc. Also any idea of how long it would take to ship across. Seems it will cost about 350 in total.
    It will be sim-free but does have some Eplus branding - Tax Man ordered one the other day from mobilerepair.de so i am waiting to see what he says bout the branding.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,761 ✭✭✭✭Winters


    Well .. I eh, ended up just ordering one from Mobilerepair.de a few min ago. Im still waiting for the order to come up in the "My Orders" section of the site so I emaield them to find out what the story was with it. Paypal already recieved my order so I should be ok.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,557 ✭✭✭The tax man


    He said they should have them by wednesday(tomorrow).So it should be on its way before the weekend.Don't know if you want to bite the bullet and just get it or if you want to hang on till I get mine and report back on the branding issue.

    Wow I bet that flower would look real if taken with a lower spec camera. :D:D:D

    I put the order through already and Paypal says the card has been charged so its too late to go back now :D

    I sent a message from the site off to him about the order not being listed on the "My Orders" page and also to check if he even got the order. I shall be looking forward to it shipping out so before the weekend. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,266 ✭✭✭halkar


    Got mine today :D
    It is a little gem. Camera is very like other cameras with lots of options to set even lets you insert date and time to the pics. I will try the different settings too see which is best but on average pictures are around 400k for normal and 200k for fine settings so even 64mb stick will hold many pics ;)

    Screen is good quality, bright and sharp. Menu is far better than my old T630 and lively. I like the radio but only works when the hearphone is in as the hearphone is the antenna but after it is plugged in you can use the loudspeaker.

    Phone is very solid and good build as I would expect from Sony and is light, battery is tiiiiny almost half size of my T630's battery. Bundled USB cable also used as charger and phone recognised and installed in few minutes after XP installed the drivers (installed 5 devices with the phone :rolleyes: ). You can access the memory stick folder just like any other memory drive and you can copy any files you want on to it. So far so good, phone, decent camera, radio, mp3 player, memory stick all in your pocket :D

    I haven't read the manual yet so if I find anything else I will post :D

    I couldn't resist and have preorder 1gb memory stick from expansys :D

    No regrets, this is the best phone I have had so far. Big thumbs up for expansys for their prompt and quick service :)

    I just emailed them about my order as its still not being listed on the "My Orders" page even though Paypal recieved the transaction. I got an email back to say
    we are off for a few days of holiday beginning on 28.5. until 7.6. We'll be back on Tuesday 8.6. and will answer your emails then

    So it looks like it shall be another week before it gets shipped out :( . It will be worth the wait anyway. They offer it a lot cheaper then many of the other stores.

    AHHHH Pants!!!


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 6,525 Mod ✭✭✭✭sharkman


    I got mine this morning , just starting to play with it now .

    However whan I play a short ring tone (CTU 24) it only plays once and wont loop it !!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 790 ✭✭✭PhoenixRising


    Mine arrived at the house yesterday morning, but I'm out of the country at the moment and not back until Friday night so just knowing it's sitting there in the house is killing me! And listening to you feckers is making me worse. :D

    Just ordered a 1GB memory stick off ebay so should hopefully get that some time next week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,266 ✭✭✭halkar


    Well lads, mine is fecked :(
    Was fine yesterday and started to freeze on me. Will not come back from stand by whatever key I press even the power key. Only way to get the phone back was to take the battery out and back again. Done some search on the net to found few people had the same problem. Sending back for replacement tomorrow :(:(


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 6,525 Mod ✭✭✭✭sharkman


    Have you tried to flash the s/w through the SE site ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,266 ✭✭✭halkar


    I couldn't find anything on their site or anywhere else on the net. It is totally unusable. I am with meteor and don't have other operators sims to check either.

    P.S. I think the usb cable will allow F\W upgrades when they are available.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 596 ✭✭✭DirtyDog


    Any more reviews? and places to buy sim free?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,399 ✭✭✭KillerShamrock


    Livetelecom has it for €430 euro and SE english site has it for €445 euro these are the cheapest two sites i can find both prices include delivery.
    Ill wait a few weeks for it as im going on holidays tomorrow. unless it is being sold nice and cheap in tenerife :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,233 ✭✭✭✭Mitch Connor

    Wrong type of stick, K750i only take duo or duo pro and they don't stock 1GB ones unfortunately. http://www.shop4memory.com/products/memory-stick-duo.asp

    There are a few UK shops with similar prices but usually with delivery on top. Expansys has the best price I've seen €111 plus delivery) but none in stock yet, it all depends how quickly you want one.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 6,525 Mod ✭✭✭✭sharkman


    If anyone wants one from Expansys , I have a preorder which I am not using .

    I will be cancelling it in the morning .

    Everyone, here's a brilliant review of the K750i on mobileburn including loads of sample photos taken by the camera:

    http://www.mobileburn.com/review.jsp?Id=1393&source=HOMETOP

    It gives it a big thumbs up and says it's the best GSM phone around at the moment. I couldn't agree with them more - very pleased with this phone. Doesn't seem to be missing anything.

    Looks like you ordered a PRO, when you wanted a PRO Duo. Just let them know you ordered the wrong card and I'm sure they'll give you a refund. The 1GB Pro Duo cards are hard to find at the moment as they're still very new. I had to get mine off ebay..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,265 ✭✭✭MiCr0


    a big thumbs up for shop4memory
    Hello David,

    Many thanks for your mail. I've changed your order for 1Gb Memory stick Pro Duo, and it's coming in stock today, so it should be delivered within 1-2 days.

    Hope it is of some help.
