Does anyone know approximately when this phone will be released?

I'm not really looking for a specific date, but more or less a rough estimate. I'm heading back to Asia from July 21-August 14 and I'm hoping to grab myself a W800i. Will there be a chance it'll be released by then? Or is this phone looking towards a September-October release?

Thanks for any help provided.

The W800i is due for Q3 2005, so unless there are some delays I say it has a 50-50 chance of being out when you go to Asia. Good luck!

Yesterday, I e-mailed my dealer in Amsterdam to check on the dates and he told me that he did not have any dates. However, when I checked with him about 20 days back, he mentioned October. He told me he would keep me posted though. I hope its soon!

thats most likely crap

the w800 should be at least 100 USD more than that when it first comes out...coz its basicly a k750 with a 512 card... and a better lens cover..and diff mp3 system..so..yea



better lense cover?

@ Vanquish

I agree. The K750i has a great lens cover!

I think the point about the lens cover is that the W800 one it is less likely to open by accident. The K750 one can slip open quite easily especially when the phone is being slid in or out of a pocket.

I've not seen a W800 in person but if the cover is the same as the D750 as it should be then I think that it is better than a K750 for the reason I stated above. Maybe personal choice though.

i like the design of w800 better than k750. the colour too. is one of my favourites. A big gsm shop from my country says that w800 will be available end of july for 550 euros ex VAT. But my country is one of the most expensive market...
