hi Jalal, sorry for getting back so late.
I'm in Bahrain at the moment. Been searching everywhere for a white W900, apparantly some stores don't want to believe that the white one's are out.
After some persuasion, I got a staff member at Geant to tell me they've got the whites but they're waiting for the blacks to sell out.
I did play with the black, but it felt VERY plasticky. I was hoping that it would feel like the SO5060i in Japan since it's got a similar auto swivel.
Geant should have the white in 3-4 days the man said, and it'll sell for 218 BD. (Bahraini Dinar for those who want to convert)
He said that by Jan 1 they'll also have the P990. I doubt it, but I leave on the 6th, so there's a bit of hope.
He said the price will be around 300 although I doubt he was sure.

amnesia,
Hi Bro, I'll call Fakhro and find out if they have white ones. If you want a black one let me know and I'll get it for B.D. 209 for you. I haven't tried the SO505 but I liked the feel of the W900 but, didn't like the way they moved the silent button and the "C" button doesn't mute the ringer any more. Even though I just found out that this was done on the W800 as well. As far as I know P990 is supposed to be on sale late March but some are saying January. I'll PM you my mobile number just in case of anything in Bahrain that I can help with.
Ok an update, Fakhro the SE agent is all out of W900's and as far as they know there won't be any white W900's here anytime soon. They don't know why Geant claimed that they'll have white ones available.

thanks for that, i got your pm.
Geant actually imports alot of their phones, i imagine they do some illegal stuff too since sometimes you see UK Orange branded phones for sale.
I'm going to Doha today so i'm going to see if they have the white or any news on the P990.
Today is day 2, so perhaps in 2 days you can call Geant and see if they have any truth to what they are saying. i should be back in three days and will update you then.
i really hope i can get one of the two (prefferably the p990) before I leave.

amnesia,
Hi Bro, hope you have news regarding the P990 when you come back from Doha. I'll check with Geant in a couple of days and will PM you if I have any news. I kinda figured that Geant might be direct importing some phones from somewhere as SE Bahrain told me that they didn't buy any W900's from them. Are you sure you say Orange branded phones in Geant and not Gravity? Both located in the same mall. Gravity imports all their phones from somewhere. I have see AT&T T68's in there. |

yeah i'm pretty sure i saw Orange branded phones in there. They were OLD HUGE 3G orange branded phones, i think they were siemens or something.
Anyway, today's the 29th and Geant haven't called me yet...
I didn't find any white w900i's in Qatar either sadly.
I'm going to wait until the day before my flight and I guess it'll be then that I'll either get a P990 (which I hope to God), a White W900, or if I can't find either then a Black W900

Salaam Bro, good luck in getting one of those. I'm sure we'll find a few P990's for sale here before they are ready for release. |

just a quick little update.
Geant have said that they should get the white w900 by the 5th at the latest, I'm not holding my breath and if they dont get it by then, would you be able to help Jalal at getting a w900 at a good price? I appreciate the help.
I guess the 5th will be my last day to search as well since my flight is on the 6th at 1:30am.

Salaam Bro,
I'll go to GOSI first thing on Saturday and will look for the P990 and will keep an eye out for the white W900. I might go to Dubai some time next week on business and will look there as well. |
