@sxt173,
if its too good the it is usually a scam. If they ask for payment via Western Union or Bank Transfer then be very suspecious. Hence my comment above about the links.

@Jah
think you are totally right! I went all the way through to checkout, the phone ends up being cheaper then retail + they have 0 for express FedEx shipping to USA from Moscow.. yeah right! Bet they send a Russian model with the phone... LOL |

My greatest gripe beyond SE's insistance of quality and making us wait for the P990i is Symbian's insistance on rtsp:// formated video streaming and RealMedia Support! Freakin DROP that crap already. Give us options like QuickTime inbedded that'll allow us to check out the QuickTime movie trailers or other streaming media sites. This is where MS has a HUGE hand above everyone. I can go to 10 random sites that offer video streaming support (other than Google Video/You Tube) for MS mediaplayer or quicktime.
Arrgh! thats my gripe for the day.

Hum....
Something is fishy here...
Have you guys seen the K610i? In the SE-Store site it says august release, but hey! It is already at "3" here in Sweden:

the SE stores are simply online shops run on behalf on SE but this does not mean they get stock before anyone else.
for example, in the UK the M600 is only available in July from the SE shop but its been available elsewhere since mid June
I'm not sure who runs the SE shops for SE but the same principal is used for Nokia in UK where Carphone Warehouse operate the Nokia shops

Then we could just say that the P990 is on its way then, if it will be available at that store in august, the it should be out before then.

I didn't say it guarantees an earlier release elsewhere
their availability dates only reflect availability from them, not general availability
anyway, we already know the P990 is "on its way"....

You did not translate the part of the message that says "με κάθε επιφύλαξη" so they actually admit that this might not be the actuall release date in the Greek market.

It really is close then, though I must say I am not as impressed with the look of the packaging compared to the M600i. Looking forward to getting my hands on one though, but no rush since I have an M600i to keep me going |
