Default Has this come out in your country?

I'm getting this phone next week, and my aunt told me it only came out in Asia. Is this true? Has it come out in UK, or US, or any other countries? http://www.nokia.com/nseries/index.h...nside,main_n93

That price is ridicolous! Who would pay $800 for a stupid phone? A phone is used to make phone calls and the ocasional snapshot. I think the phone is just over the top stupid...

I cannot agree more here. I would rather buy a cheap small laptop for that price. This is more than over the top stupid, it is ludicrous stupid.

My mom bought it for $200, brand new from my aunt who lives in Philippines. She works for the Customs (sp?) and she sells things that have been confiscated. Lucky me I guess...

I'd sell it for $800 and make $600, then go out and buy a normal phone and make off with like $550!!!

hmmm let me think about this one

$800 phone= my choice of a revo,savage,lst2,the new 8ight buggy,or the new muggy and still have money to upgrade

sorry not seeing the need for an $800 phone right now.

When i got a new phone 2 weeks ago my parents gave me $100
the said i could get a $100 dollar phone or get a free one and poket the money.
so i got the razr which was $30 after the rebates.so now i got $70 for r/c stuff

I am 15 and I do not want to get a new rc car, I am in the verge of quiting the hobby. IMO for $200 it is too good to be tru (even though its true). it is basically 3.3MP Camcorder+Cell Phone+iPod+Digital Camera. It has live Video feed, where you can have a video conversation with other people. Yeah say what you want, but you guys are just jealous LOL!

I used to think having an all in one was cool until I found out the other things just suck your battery. You can't use it as a mp3 player and phone unless your constantly charging.

At least they'll ship it for "free" I think that's pretty generous (extreme sarcasm)

Alright, lemme qoute myself from a previous post.

My mom bought it for $200, brand new from my aunt who lives in Philippines. She works for the Customs (sp?) and she sells things that have been confiscated.

Hook ups bro! lol

I only showed that eBay link because other websites don't really show pics of the phone.

The phone has a 1100mah lithium battery, almost twice as much as most regular phones out there.

Two-Hundred bucks if you had a chance to buy it for $100 you would take it without thinking twice. Steven, it's people like these in the forums that made me want to quit rc... and i'm getting my Supra soon so I won't be needing an rc... 1:1 > 1:8... besides, I am getting too old for this hobby.
