LOL yeah true. Extortionate prices from Expansys for new top-of-the-range handsets is nothing new; even the P900 I remember was similar money when it was first listed by them. (hence I got mine on contract in April 2004).
Give it 'till Christmas and we'll notice how much cheaper it'll be; if it is indeed out in just over a month's time.
And to think that the current fashion-orientated Nokia 8800 Arte is still more money than that too..

Nice pics Wanqa
that Ducati is a beauty! Must be worth a lot with that signature, right?
All
Was at DION WIRED in BedFord center yesterday afternoon, i tried the iPod Touch 8GB and 16GB, this is the closest to the iPhone we can get til voda launches the 3g iphone. I can see why theres so much hype over the UI, it looks amazing, very quick and realy cool effects, watched the trailors of the upcoming Harry Potter and James Bond films, the screen is huge,crystal clear and watching vids is like watching movies on a Flatscreen LCD BRAVIA or Scarlet, but other than that nothing else thats amazing, i didnt get to try Safari, but i think id rather get an iPod Touch and use it for music and videos rather than waste money on the very similar but over priced iphone. Lol.
Was just on YouTube and watched the Demo of the upcoming Google Android OS as well as a Q&A of its product managers. It reminds me a lot of OSX thats on the iPod Touch and iPhone but Android looks so much more sophisticated and a lot more customizable, best part being it runs smoothly at 384mhz WITHOUT a GPU and they can lower that for longer battery life and it will still run just fine, unlike the iPhone which needs around 624mhz CPU power to keep that UI going plus a GPU.
I think Android could put the iPhone outa business
but the HTC Dream thats running Android is ugly.

Speaking of youtube, Gucci, have you given emtube a shot yet? I browsed youtube and downloaded a few vidz today, it's pretty nifty, very user-friendly.

Hey all. Today i updated my firmware. It took 3 hours on edge. The visual effects r awesome. But it seems though it makes the phone slower
Posted by GUCCI.011
Kyle
Thats great bro!
dam 3hours is quite a long wait, i'd have gone crazy waiting lol. Dont worry You'll get used to them they are the same speed on both N78 and 6220c, but if you want to turn them off then go to Themes- click options on the theme you're using and click on Theme Effects- Off.
Posted by kyle_274
@gucci,
It was a long 3 hours. The last megabit or 2 the internet really slowed down. It wud only do maybe 1kbs. And sometimes it stopped doin anythin. I was so worried it would fail. The menu effects are awesome. I dont think ill turn them off. I havent tried out flash lite 3 yet. I think ill go do that now
Posted by amawanqa
@ Hobbster:
I just haven't had the chance to get the scrollwheel fixed yet, boet. It means a trip into central London to drop it off at the
repair centre, so that means a wait for a weekend to get down there. This weekend is gonna be out though; we've got other commitments on Friday night, Saturday and Sunday...
I'll get it done sometime in the near future; I do miss the scrollwheel's functionality..
Day 1 back at work and I've already got so much to do, hence I'm only posting now. Oh, and the fact that the school's internet filter doesn't let me view any esato threads, LOL.

So Samsung launches a whole raft of new phones.
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsu[....]_by_sheer_numbers-news-579.php
I like the new D980; pity there's no 3G or wi-fi (although it has EDGE) and the screen is also slightly little smaller than the Samsung F480 Tocco.

Wanqs, wow, this might be an expensive phone, but atleast you get your money's worth. So are you interested in it?
...and the C905 is no where to be seen
I love the barbed wired bottle

Yep, those waves made quite a splash
Some more pics which were taken on Monday (not by myself, though)

Absolutely fantastic pictures Kryptik.

Fantastic, but flippin scary!

Wow, they look like clouds...
Wanqa, did you see this http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=174841&forum=3
Apparently the 8GB i8510 costs only £399.95, if this is true then I think the C905 still is in trouble...

Wow! The weather was angry.
@Wanqs
What battery capacity did your P1 come with? I thought I could live with the W890 but I was lying to myself. My P910i was wonderful to use and still is so it made me go get the P1 today. Now I am deciding what to do with the W890. Lack of HSDPA is the only drawback on this phone.
Oh, by the way, I'm asking cause I read somewhere that the P1 comes with the BST-33 and mine came with the BST-40.
Maybe it's the new batch seeing that this one was manufactured in July.
Posted by amawanqa
Just got home after attending a few functions. Been a busy Wanqa.
@ Ems,
There's a BST-40 in mine, boet. I bought mine in early November, if memory serves me correctly.
@ Kryptik:
Fantastic pics! Wow, don't mess with Ma Nature, hey?
@ gola:
Yeah but new Samsungs usually don't hold their value for months on end, particularly compared to the N-series Nokias etc, so let's see what they're priced at by Christmas...
Having said that, no Samsung (and virtually no other phone) has ever come quite so loaded with specs as that li'l multimedia monster...
Yeah, the
C905 is gonna have to be well-priced, 'cos it's already lost the specs wars with this one.
