Errr they don't; in UK Voda don't carry it at all as far as I can determine, O2 don't retail it themselves but it is available on O2 through retailers (CPW and Phones 4U) who also list it for Orange and some for Tmobile



Errrrr, wrong again. o2 are selling this, due to go onsale from their website and directly through them from Monday 6th July. I've been ringing them every week ad thats the date theyve told me everytime.

Will someone with this phone be so kind to do a little experiment for me?
I want to know what is the phone's performance while listening to music in the Walkman player and playing Tower Bloxx Deluxe at the same time? Is there any lag whatsoever?

I tried this on my mother's K850 and the game lagged quite a bit, almost totally unplayable while listening to music at the same time.
So I wonder if W995 or C905 are any better at this, I'm sure they have better CPU's, more RAM etc. than K850.

Haven't tried the email client yet but Gmail mobile works flawlessly over WiFi. And fast.
So does eBuddy, combined MSN/Yahoo/Google Talk/Facebook messenger. And Skype (messenger) too.

Here's a good news.
Its been released in india with price around 24K INR. And i'll be buying it after 2 weeks bec of credit card date. Its coming with desk speakers and no bluetooth headset the salesman said. And which color is better black or silver? Which is prone to scratches easily?

you can use the following as a work around and quite decent solution:
1> GMAIL app (J2ME)
2> YahooGo2/3/etc (J2ME)

Both of these apps allow for full permissions and also allow you to have access not only to standard folders: Inbox/Trash/Sent - but they also can work via IMAP and folders to your own created folders, Starred, Saved, etc etc. You can also file your emails in any folder you want. YahooGo gets a plus as it gives you a bundled weather app too.

Check it out.

Thanks Prom1 and Aeronautico for the reply... So it is doable, but just getting your mail via pop through the in-built client is not possible over wifi, I understand.... Strange why they would put in this limitation. On symbian phones this limitation does not exist.

So now... do I go for the sexy, classy looking SE W995 with limited features, or for the bland, dull but feature packed N86.... aaah, the agony of choice...

Can always use a browser to check your email w wifi

Everyone has a different need on mobile. For me, I am happy to switch from N95-2 to W995. Better camera, better music (deeper bass), torchlight, better messaging/text, smart dialing, louder earphone at busy street, faster and friendly UI and pleasing to the eye.

Used to have a black one, but get bored and change to silver. Metal with walkman orange accent looks nicer.

True, but a web interface does not allow me to take a picture and immediately mail it to my wife, correct? I would have to take the picture, open up the gmail application (does this come with the phone, btw, or you have to separately install it?), create a new e-mail, attach picture and send it.... just seems so much more complex.

But wow, man, that w995 of yours looks soooo good.
