Seeing the P900 will be launched and we are all going to loose the value of our P800s, thats if you want to buy the P900...

now are you going to seell you P800 now and buy a T610 or another phone for the meantime?

I am...

it seems a bit extreme to sell one phone so you don't lose too much money only to buy another which you will then have to sell... and lose money on... when the p900 becomes available.

I reckon hang on to the p800, get the p900 as soon as you can and sell the p800 right away because there will be people who want a p800 but don't want, or can't afford, the p900 so the second hand market should not be too bad even in a couple of months.

can't really see the point of doubling your losses by selling p80, buying t610, selling t610 and buying p900.

Couldn't agree more.

Besides.... wouldn't you at least wanna wait and see if it's worth at all upgrading from P8 to P9?

Maybe for you ppl already having a P8...... the difference won't be worth it after all....

Dude.... I can get a NEW one unlocked for less than that!!!

I sincerely doubt you'll find a buyer. (and if you do... shame on them!)

Make Money!

Hold on to your P800 and keep in good condition; in 3 to 4 years they will be very rare and worth a lot of money! Then you'll be able to afford the P4000!

Are they so expensive in your country?? why don't you buy them from internet? they deliver worldwide...

You can everywhere find a P800 new for less then 565€ or 607$us (i even found one at 520€ in gray!!!)... (even in shops in belgium at 570€)

Jeez, why buy the phone if you just want the new one! I could have told you a year ago, that shortly after the P800 was released that SE would start work on its replacement.
