A friend of mine will be travelling from Stockholm to my town in two weeks. I am going to ask him to buy P800 for me. Can someone tell me where to buy it? I'd prefer to buy tax-free - anyone tried the Arlanda airport tax-free shops? |

Don't know about the tax-free shops, depending on the terminal they can be quite weak at stockholm (which airline is he flying?), but I just had my friend buy me a p800 in stockholm itself and bring it back home to me (Im a Swede living in London).
GEAB The Phonehouse (chain, owned by the Carphonewarehouse) have the P800 in stock in some downtown shops - though they have two prices (!) SEK 10200 for the early-shipment ones and SEK 8495 for the second shipment onwards... Needless to say my mate hunted down a second-shipment phone for me 
Another shop chain to try is Telia (BT equivalent) who list the phone online for SEK 7797 but whose Kungsgatan shop at least had none in stock "until after new year".
It seems like SEs strategy of only releasing in certain markets before xmas has meant that stock in those countries is adequate to match demand (a far cry from the release of the T68 and others when a shop in stockholm had sold 25 but only recevied 5 in the first three months)...
Good luck - the phone is awesome! |

Adapt have only shops in Uppsala (80km north of Stockholm)... but there are many shops in Stockholm that probably have the P800 now, the price is 7000-8000 SEK for it in most shops.

Telia > We expect to have them in stock in Early February
Vodafone > We have not yet recieved any information about when we can recieve P800's, but we hope to have it available Late January / Early February.

To all: Thank you so much for your input. I'm so happy to have some directions for my man in Stockholm I will probably post again soon before the purchase (in a week or so) and will ask again to confirm the best place. If you happen to find the-place-to-buy-p800-in-Stockholm drop me a note...

I need your help once more.
The decision time has come. Anyone can help me find the best price on P800 in Stockholm? My person in Sweden is ready to buy but it looks like the availability is scarce. Any help will be very appreciated. |

I live in stockholm and walks on the streets where all the big phonestores are every day on my way to school and there is'nt any P800 in a single shop !
They all have sold out or hasn't got any at all so if you are looking for a P800 you propobley schold go somewhere else ... just a tip.
Even the shops that plans to get them in soon have a book list witch covers (almost) every single phone they will get! (in the next ship)
Maybe you could get one if you have a really, and i mean REALLY, good friend who have spared one for you in secret you could get one, but that is, from what they say, illegal ... to bad 
The last time i checked for updates was today and still the same.
Luckey for me i'm on the list to get one within the next ship, but we are four in my family who are going to have ourself a P800 (my sister sticks with her nokia... DUMBASs hahaha !) and i think the have higher priority on pepole that wants more then one phone so they put thoose higher on their list ...
I would consider myself as a "safe source", if you are going to stockholm dont wast your time loocking for a P800 because there are'nt any. Spend your time going to museums instead. Here are some tipås what you could to: Grönalund (not open this time a year), Wasa muset (a museum about the ship "Wasa"), Moderna Muset (a museum with moden art), Riksdagshuset (where the disissoins are made), The Swedish Mansion (or castle if you want to call it that, in sweden it is "Slottet"), take a boat tour around Stockholm City, Go shopping in one of our many stores, Drottninggatan (queenstreet) has many shops (including Debenhauns if you are for Great Britain) ... i dont come up with any more ideas right now but if you get tierd (or bored ) you could go out to just look at all the magnificent buildings we have here. Or if you dont like any of theese things you could always go and see a movie just like home (but with default subtitles) or you could just simpely relax infront of the TV :):):)
