$998 is not too bad consider many online sites stating above $1100 for S700i !

I've spotted the S700 in a small mobile phone shop in Melbourne (Easytone? I think)
Dont know if it's an Australian issue phone or a HK import - but these guys usually get new handsets about 3 weeks before offical release. |

The agony of the wait is really consuming me. After having seen the S700i listed in many November brochures of major retailers, its still not available for sale. Guess it won't be for another month or so. Sigh! |

Yes. I have no idea what their game plan is. I've seen the TV add a few times now, I've seen it in catalogues, I've seen heaps of posters on bus stops, I've seen more about the S700i then any other phone before it's release. But one thing I haven't seen yet is the phone for sale
BTW - a little bird told me that it hasn't even been listed on wholesalers price lists yet. Could be a while off still............ |

shaheen, yours can't be a local unit, can it? Btw, when does Brightpoint usually distribute new phones to its dealers or is there even a specific date for stock taking? I'm hoping that the next dispatch could contain the S700i. I'm pretty sure it's in, just not mass distributed yet. |

@shaheen - Yeah they still have pre-order. ETA late October. If you don't mind me asking, why are you selling your S700i? Don't you like it? Is it from OS? |

The P910i is now available. The cheapest I've seen is $1299. I'm still waiting for the S700i though. Isn't it supposed to be released before the P910i?
On another note, the elusive S700i is advertised on an Optus plan, though it states that this offer only commences on 24th November. Guess that's the clearest indication as to when it should be available. |
